Hi,
I have a course setup with news forums and they are set to "subscribe forever" setting. However when I create a new forum post, it doesnt send out emails to all the students enrolled in the course.
I tried sending email directly to one of the students and it went through just fine.
Could you please help me troubleshoot this problem?
Thanks
News forum not sending automatic emails ?

I am sorry, I have now found a solution to this problem.
Apparantly cron wasnt running and the automated emails are sent every time the cron is run. Once I ran the cron, it worked perfectly.
Thanks all.

Thank you VERY much for this posting!
After much wailing and gnashing of teeth, and pulling on what little hair I have left for weeks, thanks to this posting, we now have 3 MOODLES running correctly on a single server.
The cron was running on one, but not the other two; now all three cron's are running! THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU!
