Redmine

Posted earlier on Fora Help and Open Discussion without further feedback.

The subject summarises my issue. I am having redmine retrieve the changesets through a post-commit hook in a subversion repository ("ruby /usr/share/redmine/script/runner "Repository.fetch_changesets" -e production > /dev/null 2>&1 &"). This is working perfectly.

I typically use keywords which trigger the update of an issue status (Fixes,Closes), such as changing from "In progress" to "Resolved". The status is indeed changing automatically with the commit operation.

However, whereas a manual status update triggers an e-mail notification (I've configured redmine to behave so), a status update through an SCM commit is not sending this notification.

Note that the log file production.log DOES shows that such notifications ARE sent. However, my SMTP server does not receive any requests in this case. Here's an excerpt of the log file.

I wonder where this is an intended behaviour or it should be considered a defect.

Thanks for your feedback.
