Redmine and Gmail configuration problem

Added by Sebastián Fiorentino over 12 years ago

Hi, I'm trying to set up the email notification using a gmail account.
But when I send a testing email redmine shows the following message.

"An error occurred while sending mail (Permission denied - connect(2))"

My configuration.yml

default: # Outgoing emails configuration (see examples above)
email_delivery:
delivery_method: :smtp
smtp_settings:
address: smtp.gmail.com
port: 587
domain: smtp.gmail.com
authentication: :plain
user_name: "myaccount@gmail.com"
password: mypassword
enable_starttls_auto: true

Environment:
Redmine version 2.1.4.stable
Ruby version 1.8.7 (x86_64-linux)
Rails version 3.2.8
Environment production
Database adapter MySQL
Redmine plugins:
no plugin installed

Running on Apache.

OS:
CentOS release 6.2 (Final)

Please, I read a lot of forum threads, how-tos and wiki pages and still does not work.

Thanks in advance!

I'm not sure if the indent is crucial. Means, you should keep the exact formatting as given.

Here are my settings and they work as a charm.

production:
  email_delivery:
    delivery_method: :smtp
    smtp_settings:
      enable_starttls_auto: true
      address: "smtp.gmail.com" 
      port: '587'
      domain: "smtp.gmail.com" 
      authentication: :plain
      user_name: "mymail@gmail.com" 
      password: "mypassword"
