Well, if anyone is curious, I fixed this problem myself.  I managed to see
that the source was looking for /var/qmail/bin/qmail-remote specifically.
This really needs to be defined in the conf file or something, as it is not
standard on a debian system, I don't know about others.  I solved it by just
symlinking from that dir to /usr/sbin where qmail-remote is located, and now
all works very well.  Having a simple check for the presence of this
executable would be nice, though, so it could give a more specific error
message like "Unable to locate qmail-remote" or something.

Incidentally, why is this version 2.5?  It seems like it's more alpha
quality right now, just due to all these little issues and lack of
documentation, configure script, etc.  I would fix all these before having a
"1.0" release.  Just a thought...

Thanks,
Ryan

Subject: vQregister: "Delivery error: Child execution failed"


Hi all,
I just tried to install vQregister...  Despite the complete lack of
documentation or even a simple INSTALL file, I figured everything out and it
seemed to compile very smoothly.  I even created the database, tables, and
fields in my vqregister.conf, and I linked the db_mysql.* files
appropriately.  Despite all this, it does not seem to work, and I'm not sure
where to go to troubleshoot it.  When I go to the CGI, it shows the default
template, and when I try to register an account, it comes back with:

Email delivery to [EMAIL PROTECTED] failed
Delivery error: Child execution failed

Has anyone else experienced this problem?  Suggestions for trying to fix it
or debug it?  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Ryan
