Error in redmine mail recive

Added by Antero Neto almost 16 years ago

Hi, I’m having trouble with the rdm-mailhandler. My MTA is the Exim4 running on Debian Etch.
Ruby1.8 - Rails v2.1.2

When I send an email to redmine alias I got the following menssage:

A message that you sent could not be delivered to one or more of its recipients. This is a permanent error. The following address(es) failed:

pipe to |/opt/redmine-0.8/extra/mail_handler/rdm-mailhandler.rb --url http://redmine...  --key XXXXXXXX
    generated by redmine@...
    local delivery failed

The following text was generated during the delivery attempt:

I have exactly the same issue.

I'm a ruby/rails novice, but how does the rdm-mailhandler.rb script know where to find the rest of the redmine source code? Does it get it from the URL? If so, do I need to the URL as specified in the RoR configuration: http://server.com:12001, or the URL rewrite I'm using: http://tracker.server.com ?

Thanks

One more, exactly te same!
Added a "pipe_transport" directive to my exim config, set up right permissions on the rb script, and then this error.

According to what I can see on Ruby forums, there should the missing file name :
/usr/local/lib/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems.rb:723:in `initialize': No such file or directory - HERE (Errno::ENOENT)

In our case the error message seems indicating that Ruby is trying to load something from an empty value !?

RE: Error in redmine mail recive (workaround) - Added by Максим Туркин over 15 years ago

Exactly the same!

I think the script rdm-mailhandler.rb tries to create temporary file in user's home directory. He does not do so, possibly because of the Exim and its pipes. When I ran script from console, it works fine.

To work around this problem, I did such things:

tuned Exim's pipe, adding a user, group and use_shell settings

user = <mailer user>
group = <mailer group>
use_shell

for start the script I used construction

/usr/local/bin/ruby /path/to/rdm-mailhandler.rb --params

disabled checking your home directory (forgive me for this) written in line 723 file /usr/local/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems.rb this:

Was:

  next if Etc.getpwuid.uid != File::Stat.new(Gem.user_home).uid

Now:

  next if 1 != 0 # Etc.getpwuid.uid != File::Stat.new(Gem.user_home).uid

After that it works as expected.
