Redmine 2.0: error sending email

Added by Paolo Andreuzza over 12 years ago

Hi.

Redmine 2.0 can't send email.

When I try Administration > Settings > Email Notification > Send a test email I obtain the following error:

 "An error occurred while sending mail (SSL_connect SYSCALL returned=5 errno=0 state=SSLv2/v3 read server hello A)" 

Redmine is installed on a Debian squeeze virtual machine, apache2 serve redmine pages via mod_passenger.

I added in redmine/config/configuration.yml the following lines:

# specific configuration options for production environment
# that overrides the default ones
production:
  email_delivery:
    delivery_method: :smtp
    smtp_settings:
     address: 172.xx.xx.xx     <- ip addr of my local network smtp server, no auth required
     port: 25
     domain: :none
     autentication: :none

Whith Redmine 1.3 on Ubuntu virtual machine, same configuration works correctly.

Sorry for my english
Thank in advance.

Great, it finally works for me too!

RE: Redmine 2.0: error sending email - Added by Paolo Andreuzza over 12 years ago

Hi guys.
I've upgraded my installation to version 2.0.2, but my problem is still there. I've even tryed "open_ssl_verify_mode => none" in configuration.yml with no success (as I've written above).
I don't know ruby at all so I have no idea on where to look for.
I think it's not a Redmine problem, but something is missing in my installation, but i don't know what. Can somebody give me a suggestion?

Thank in advance.

RE: Redmine 2.0: error sending email - Added by David Hull over 12 years ago

I got e-mail to work by adding:

      openssl_verify_mode: 0
      authentication: :none

RE: Redmine 2.0: error sending email - Added by Paolo Andreuzza over 12 years ago

Thank you, I've try but nothing to do, I obtain always the same error, and non email is sent.
Maybe I've a problem elsewhere but I've no idea...
I've even tried to send an email manually, using telnet from my redmine machine, and it works, it means it isn't a network/server issue...

RE: Redmine 2.0: error sending email - Added by Delbert Friesen over 12 years ago

Great, it works for me too. My configuration file is:

# default configuration options for all environments
default:
  # Outgoing emails configuration (see examples above)
  email_delivery:
    delivery_method: :smtp
    smtp_settings:
      address: 192.168.x.x # IP Mailserver
      port: 25
      domain: "domain.com" # my mail domain
      authentication: :none
 #     user_name: "" 
 #     password: "" 
 #     enable_starttls_auto: true
      openssl_verify_mode: 'none'

I had to restart my redmine stack after editing my configuration.yml

/etc/init.d/bitnami restart

RE: Redmine 2.0: error sending email - Added by Pierre Labrie about 12 years ago

The two configurations works for the error:
Erreur lors de l'envoi de l'email (hostname was not match with the server certificate)

openssl_verify_mode: 0
or
openssl_verify_mode: 'none'

Of course you have to restart the server.(Thin on Bitnami)

Redmine 2.1.2 on Bitnami

RE: Redmine 2.0: error sending email - Added by Alain JUPIN almost 12 years ago

Hello,

I've a Redmine 2.1.5 running on Debian Squeeze with apache 2 and mod_passanger.

In the config/configuration.yml, I've the followings :

default:
  # Outgoing emails configuration (see examples above)
  email_delivery:
    delivery_method: :smtp
    smtp_settings:
      address: localhost
      port: 587
      domain: "domain.com"       # <- replaced by my true domain
    authentication: :none
    enable_starttls_auto: false
    openssl_verify_mode: 'none'

I've tried with port 25 and 587, and also tried domain: "localhost"

I restart redmine (after each modifications) by restarting apache2.
This doesn't resolve the "hostname was not match with the server certificate" issue when send test email !

I also try to use smtp.gmail.com, this doesn't solve the problem.

Environment:
  Redmine version                          2.1.5.stable
  Ruby version                             1.8.7 (x86_64-linux)
  Rails version                            3.2.8
  Environment                              production
  Database adapter                         MySQL
Redmine plugins:
  no plugin installed

Thanks a lot for your help

RE: Redmine 2.0: error sending email - Added by Pierre Labrie almost 12 years ago

You must restart the rail server (Thin), not the Apache. The Apache receive the content from the rail server. On Bitnami stack, there are two Thin server on a load balancing configuration. Each one must be restarted after a modification of the config/configuration.yml or after adding a plugin.

I think the command is thin restart -C /etc/thin/myapp.yml on linux but I use a windows version on a Bitnami stack. See also http://stackoverflow.com/questions/7841653/how-to-restart-individual-servers-in-thin-cluster-in-rails-3-1-app

and testing email still says

(wrong argument (Fixnum)! (Expected kind of OpenSSL::SSL::SSLContext))

my configuration.yml

Anybody got any working solution?

RE: Redmine 2.0: error sending email - Added by Tomas Latal over 11 years ago

Finally!! Downgrading to mail 2.5.3 and changing dependency in Gemfile.lock from mail 2.5.4 to 2.5.3 worked for me.

Thank you so much!! I know this is an old post but I have v4.2.1 and I have been going round and round, post after post, trying to get this fixed and yours should be the first one to come up!

Somehow we got this to work in 4.1
email_delivery:
delivery_method: :sendmail
smtp_settings:

address: smtp01.mydomainname.local 
port: 25
domain: mydomainname.local

but after upgrading to 4.2 we could not get it to work, even with plugins that claimed it fixed it.

I updated my configuration.yml to reflect the following;

email_delivery:
delivery_method: :smtp
smtp_settings:
  1. user_name:
  2. password:
address: smtp01.mydomainname.local 
port: myportnumber
domain: mydomainname.net
openssl_verify_mode: 0
authentication: none

Worked like a charm. I'm so ecstatic and relieved right now because it's been 3 days trying to fix this and breaking the site lol
