[Typo3] [Typo3-directmail] Re: dmailer (class.t3lib_dmailer.php) error on line 487

Hi Mark,

a little bit more information about your environment would help a lot. At
least your OS and PHP Version are needed to find out the real reason for
your problem.

Generally I would suggest following changes:
1) Copy dmailerd.phpcron to dmailerd.php
2) Drop the first line of dmailerd.php
3) Drop lines 3 and four and replace them with
if ( isset( $_SERVER['argv'] ) ) {
		// script called from command line
	$dir = dirname( $_SERVER['argv'][0] );
} else {
		// script called via web server
	$dir = dirname( $_SERVER['SCRIPT_FILENAME'] );
}
define('PATH_typo3', dirname(dirname(dirname(dirname($dir)))) . '/typo3/');

4) Now you can call the script via your web server or from the command line.


@all: If these changes work, I'd like to have them in the next version of
direct_mail. So testing and feedback is appreciated!

Regards
Thorsten
