Redmine

I guess this error is displayed when you try to send a test email?
Did you restart your instance? Could you post your configuration.yml? Is there an old email.yml file remaining?

No, this error only happens when I click on the item "Email notification" and I'm still looking for sending a test email.

It's not "email.yml" but "configuration.yml" . Redmine 1.2.1 stable version

production:
email_delivery:
delivery_method: :smtp
smtp_settings:
tls: true
enable_starttls_auto: true
address: xxxx
port: 25
domain: xxx
authentification: none

Sorry for adress and domain but i'm a company ;)

email.yml is the old file name, I wanted to check that there were no such file.

Did you restart your instance? Can you please post the file? Do you have something in you production.log file?

Yes I rebooted my instance, and I've got nothing in production.log

I don't know where to start to enable email notification.

I downloaded redmine 1.2.1.

I'd like to know, to set up email, do I modify configuration.yml? If so, where is it?

I only see /config/email.yml.example. What do I do with it?

Thanks,

See Guide.

There is a file called email.yml.example.

However, the page in the Guide suggests I use configuration.yml.

This is a contradiction.

Please suggest a solution.

There is a file called email.yml.example in Bitnami Redmine 1.2.1

However, the page in the Guide suggests I use configuration.yml. This doesn't seem to exist in Bitnami Redmine 1.2.1

This is a contradiction.

Please suggest a solution.

It's a mistake from Bitnami since email.yml is deprecated in favor of configuration.yml and thus shouldn't be bundled anymore.

Thank you, Etienne. I will let them know.

Apologies for the bump, but I have the same issue as the OP. It appears this issue was never answered but that somehow he sorted it out himself...

I've set up the configuration.yml file by copying the example and setting the production environment to use sendmail, however I continue to get the error that reads:

"Email delivery is not configured, and notifications are disabled.
Configure your SMTP server in config/configuration.yml and restart the application to enable them."

This doesn't make sense since the configuration.yml file is there and I've requested that it uses sendmail. I've restarted apache (and consequently mod_rails) several times. Has anyone else had this issue? Or could the OP clear up how he fixed it?

This is my code in configuration.yml to local area:

1. default configuration options for all environments
   default: # Outgoing emails configuration (see examples above)
   email_delivery:
   delivery_method: :smtp
   smtp_settings:
   address: 192.168.2.2
   port: 25
   domain: domain.com
   authentication: :plain
   user_name: "redmine@domain.com"
   password: "redmine"

Hi, Julien,

Did you just remove the comment of the example and add your mail setting?
if yes, I guess it might be caused by the additional "production:" section at the end of the configuration.yml file

In addition to this, take note:

THIS SHOULD BE A VALID YML FILE.

I found this the hard way. Turns out, removing the comments messed this up. I spend two days debugging this and finally I solved it by fixing the spaces on the uncommented lines.

Take note also to remove the production line near the bottom. The previous post gave the hint to check to production: directive near the email configuration line. I had to make it stick to the fist column be removing the space and fixing the spaces afterwards for the email directives (it had 3 spaces from the 1st column). The start of the email directives is two spaces from the previous line's first line.

Just my two cents. Its a great software and I want to help others who are experiencing this problem.

That ' s true it was a problème of yaml incorrect syntax.
now i Know That i must respect the Space indentation :)
see you
