Error with email class in CI 3.1.8 - ardavan - 04-04-2018
Hey everybody.
I'm trying to use email class as usual.
I have loaded the email library in the autoload.php and made an email.php file in my config folder and in my controller trying to send() the email.
But I get Error "NOT" on the browser, rather in the log file. I don't have this problem with CI 3.1.5 by the way!
Does anyone have any idea?
config > email.php
PHP Code:
defined('BASEPATH') OR exit('No direct script access allowed');
$config['protocol'] = 'smtp';
$config['smtp_host'] = 'mail.mydomain.com';
$config['smtp_port'] = '26';
$config['smtp_timeout'] = '7';
$config['smtp_user'] = 'myusername';
$config['smtp_pass'] = 'mypassword';
$config['charset'] = 'utf-8';
$config['newline'] = "\r\n";
$config['mailtype'] = 'html';
$config['validation'] = TRUE;
controller
PHP Code:
$message = $this->load->view('edm/verification', '', TRUE);
$this->email->from($this->config->item('from'), $this->config->item('appName'));
$this->email->to($email);
$this->email->subject('Welcome to '.$this->config->item('appName'));
$this->email->message($message);
if( ! $this->email->send()):
$this->session->set_flasdata('error', $this->lang->line('unableSendingEmail'));
endif;
log file
Code:

@ardavan,
What is the value for $this->config->item('from') and $this->config->item('appName')?
What I mean to say is where (in your code) is the value for $this->config->item('from') and $this->config->item('appName') assigned?

$this->email is a string not an object.
Have you something like $this->email = "string" in the controller? or an attribute $email = "string" ?

i am following this https://www.codeigniter.com/user_guide/libraries/email.html#sending-email
as i said this works on my another project which is different version of CI (3.1.5) but in 3.1.8 doesnt work.
this is my project in CI 3.1.5 which the email works perfectly
PHP Code:
$from = $this->config->item('email_info');
$to = $this->session->flashdata('to');
$subject = $this->session->flashdata('subject') . ' | ' . $this->AppName;
$message = $this->session->flashdata('message');
$this->email->from($form['address'], $from['name']);
$this->email->to($to);
if($cc) $this->email->cc($cc);
$this->email->subject($subject);
$this->email->message($message);
$this->email->send();

You override the attribute $email.
Search in the controller/my_controller
$this->email = "examplestring" and attribute $email = "examplestring"

Hi @ardavan
Can you please print out $this->config and post your response?
RE: Error with email class in CI 3.1.8 - InsiteFX - 04-05-2018
CodeIgniter version 3.1.8 expects all parameters in the from methods to be strings.
I would assign your variables to string variables and then pass them into the email form.
or cast them to a string to see if that works (string) variable.
