An error occurred while sending mail (getaddrinfo: The storage control blocks were destroyed. )
Added by Todor Kunovski over 13 years ago
Hi. I have just installer redmine. I configured the email notification section fine. When i sent a test email i got this error massage: "An error occurred while sending mail (getaddrinfo: The storage control blocks were destroyed. )"
I want to interconnect redmine with m local exgange server. So i configured both configuration.yml and email.yml with this lanes:
production:
delivery_method: :smtp
smtp_settings:
address: 192.168.5.254
port: 25
Am i dong something wrong? Anyone can help me?
Thanks in advance
Todor

I stumbled upon this error a few hours ago. Luckily, I found a working configuration. First, I deleted configuration.yml (there is nothing of relevance in it). Then I restored my email.yml from a backup. It has the following content:
production: delivery_method: :smtp smtp_settings: address: servername port: 25 #domain: #authentication: :login #user_name: #password: development: delivery_method: :smtp smtp_settings: address: servername port: 25 #domain: #authentication: :login #user_name: #password:
This configuration works again with our Exchange 2003.

Hi, I had had the same problem when upgraded to 1.2.x.
Here is my configuration for Redmine 1.2.1:
# default configuration options for all environments default: # Outgoing emails configuration (see examples above) email_delivery: delivery_method: :smtp smtp_settings: address: "mail.ourisp.com" port: 25 domain: "ourdomain.com" # authentication: :login # user_name: "redmine@example.net" # password: "redmine"
Note that the configuration is in default section, not in production or development sections. Also note that there is email_delivery sub-section.

I add this error and it was due to DNS not working. To verify on Windows that there is a DNS issue, check that you can run nslookup.
The real issue here with Redmine : emails not sent are not kept and send later...
