Getting redmine to receive email?

Added by Israel Brewster about 10 years ago

I am running redmine 2.3.2 on Mac OS X 10.8.5, and trying to follow the instructions at http://www.redmine.org/projects/redmine/wiki/RedmineReceivingEmails to be able to receive emails. The goal is to be able to put a simple "feature request" or "bug report" form on my website for end users, so if there is a better way (I saw reference to a REST api somewhere, for example) please let me know.

In any event, whenever I try to run the commands listed to receive email, either via IMAP or command line, I get the error: "Don't know how to build task 'red mine:email:receive'" (or redmine:email:receive_imap in the case of imap). I did find one very old thread that mentioned something about "installing the action_mailer_optional_tls plugin", but it didn't give instructions for how to do so, so it wasn't helpful to me, even if that is a solution and still valid.

So what might I do to fix this? Thanks.

Hi Israel,

Do you cd to your redmine installation directory before running the rake task?

Cheers,

I tried it both ways: cd'ing to the redmine directory, or not being in the redmine directory, but giving the full path to the Rakefile. The results were the same, however.
