swift mailer: doesnt work at all (blank page)

[choubix]

hello, i am trying to use swift mailer.

I have php 5.04 running on my server. SSL is enabled (if it makes a difference)

The smokes test works if i use "localhost"

I tried using my own server (ip address, smtp.myserver.com & localhost).
I tried using smtp.google.com (using a gmail account created for the occasion)

yet: i keep getting a blank page and nothing shows in my apache log

here is the code I use.
can someone help me out please?

thanks!

<?php
error_reporting(E_ALL); 
ini_set('display_errors', true);



require_once "lib/Swift.php";
require_once "lib/Swift/Connection/SMTP.php"

//Start Swift
$smtp = new Swift(new Swift_Connection_SMTP("localhost",25);
$smtp->setUsername("mylogin");
$smtp->setPassword("mypassword");

$swift =& new Swift($smtp);

//Create the message
$message =& new Swift_Message("Title", "Body");

//Now check if Swift actually sends it
if($swift->send($message, "[e-mail]", "[e-mail]"))
{
print "works";
}
else
{
print "didn't work";
}


?>

I used this one with Google

<?php
error_reporting(E_ALL); 
ini_set('display_errors', true);



require_once "lib/Swift.php";
require_once "lib/Swift/Connection/SMTP.php"

//Start Swift
$smtp = new Swift(new Swift_Connection_SMTP("smtp.gmail.com", Swift_Connection_SMTP::PORT_SECURE, Swift_Connection_SMTP::ENC_TLS));
$smtp->setUsername("[e-mail]");
$smtp->setPassword("mygmail_password");


$swift =& new Swift($smtp);

//Create the message
$message =& new Swift_Message("Title", "Body");

//Now check if Swift actually sends it
if($swift->send($message, "[e-mail]", "[e-mail]"))
{
print "works";
}
else
{
print "didn't work";
}


?>

can someone help me please?

thanks!

does anyone know where the logs are recorded please?

I am trying to use :

$log =& Swift_LogContainer::getLog();
$log->setLogLevel(4);
echo $log->dump(true);

at the end of the script.
would like to explore the log file but nothing in the LOG directory.

thanks
