Hi,
I have a perl script that takes in form data and generates and email with the data to be sent to me. I'm getting the error message Error:Bad or missing From address: '$from_address'. The webmaster says I'm using the correct from address, so, any ideas about this error message?
Thanks. Robbie
Here's what I have:
Hi Robbie,
Others have pointed out at least one essential problem, that the single quotes prevent your variables from being interpolated. I don't know for sure if this is part of the problem, but I noticed something else:
Error:Bad or missing From address: '$from_address'.
There is no From address in your script
from => '$from_address',
There is a from address.
I'm not sure if it makes a difference, but I would suggest that if you still have problems after fixing the literal [single] quotes around your variables, you try From and To, etc.
And [I can't tell for sure from this snippet, but]... use strict;
