Hi

Just upgraded to CB 1.8 RC1 and CBSubs 1.3 on a Joomla! 1.5.25 site

When I got to make a new mailer - the one feature I have been waiting for!! {{ thank you!! }} I see these errors at the top of the page when making a new mailer.

What do they mean?

Notice: SQLXML::queryObjectList: error: Table 'mobonline.jos_cbsubs_geo_zones' doesn't exist SQL=SELECT a.`id` AS `value`, a.`name` AS `text` FROM `jos_cbsubs_geo_zones` AS a GROUP BY value ORDER BY a.`ordering` ASC in /hermes/bosweb/web229/b2294/ipg.mothersofboysonlinec/components/com_comprofiler/plugin/user/plug_cbpaidsubscriptions/cbpaidsubscriptions.sql.php on line 371

I think I'm going to need a bit more education than what the manual is providing regarding actually sending out the mail queues that have been set forth in the Mailer configs.

I have built my mailer based on sending out an email "at" "last online date" starting on feb 13th (yesterday) and have set 'exclusions' with the Conditions tab of "not this condition" if they are already subscribers of a certain plan.

I have then clicked on this link in Automatic Settings:
mysitehere.com/index.php?option=com_comprofiler&task=pluginclass&plugin=cbpaidsubscriptions&cbpact=cbsubsclass&cbpclass=mailer&user=62&cbpmailerdo=cronprocesssendmailqueue&key=c6734b8c6a716e285c3006bd5decad4d&format=raw


this generates the queue with the exclusions as set forth in the mailer (53 emails in the cue - which is right cuz I have 56 members, 3 of which already belong to the 'certain' plan)

I then click on Messages Queue button and see the list of the 53 emails I need to send out.

So to test this - I logged in as a test user, and expected an email to be generated because this test user is not a member of 'certain' plan and had just logged into site - as the mailer is designated.

If I check that test user's line in the queue, and hit "send emails" - I'm taken back to page with cron task links as I posted above -- same screen as "Automatic Settings"

Also - my time stamp is off. My global configs have my site set as they should be -7:00 GMT (Mountain time USA) - but yet the queue times states
Date To Email:
02/14/2012 17:39:22
So that's 5:39:22 pm and I generated this queue at 10:39pm (22:39:00) on Feb 14th.

What am I missing? Could this not be working cuz of my errors I posted above?

Thanks

If this is an issue of "you have to set up a cron job with your hosting company" - I feel that the manual should have been more explicit about that in the "requirements" section (p.20).

The host of this site in question doesn't support cron jobs.

I am hoping that this cron jobs 'suggestion' as noted in the manual:

"You should consult your hosting helpdesk to see how these URLs can be used to schedule automated CRON jobs in your environment." (p. 429)

is only necessary for automation and that the Mailer extension will still work without having to set up an automatic email push through a cron job and can be done manually as well.

Thanks

I was pretty sure I clicked all the links last nite with testing things. I'll try again -.... any thoughts with the time stamp issue? If it thinks it's sending in the past - will it ever really send?

and I didnt think Tax plug in was required if not collecting tax but it is to use Mailer ?

thx
