Email just doesnt work. .. suggestions?
Im mostly concerned about the files not showing up. I don't know what to do beyond the config file. Please help!
Hi barbz,
Is your PHP running under Safe Mode?
If so, you need to turn it off first.
Once you have it turned off, try to create a new form with file upload field and test it.
Otherwise, if you can't turn off Safe Mode, you'll need to manualy create the "files" folder under your "data/form_x" folder.

I apparently cannot turn off safe mode. can you elaborate just a bit more on manually creating the files folder?
update...I apparently it is not in safe mode. I just called godaddy and they do not run in safemode. Should I change my hosting to Linux?

Ah.. so you are using GoDaddy.
Ok, it seems you are using Windows hosting plan.
In this case, you need to open your File Manager from GoDaddy control panel and then go to your "machform/data" folder.
Set all the permission of this folder to "Writable" using the File Manager.
Then try to test with a new form.
Regarding the email, you need to configure your config.php file to use GoDaddy SMTP server.
Based on their article here:
http://help.godaddy.com/article/951
Modify your config.php and set these lines:
define('USE_SMTP',true);
define('SMTP_HOST','relay-hosting.secureserver.net');
define('SMTP_PORT',25);you can left the other as default.
If the problem persist and you need direct help, please contact us directly: customer.service [at] appnitro.com
Many of MachForm users are using GoDaddy.
