TLS configuration documentation for Rails 3
Added by Martin Lindhe over 12 years ago.
Updated over 11 years ago.
Description
Since upgrading to 2.0.0 (also verified today on 2.0.1, and svn trunk) the smtp configuration settings for TLS encryption is somewhat broken, as notified by [1].
If a smtp server is configured with both "tls: true" and "enable_starttls_auto: true", this error occurs when trying to send mail:
An error occurred while sending mail (SSL_connect returned=1 errno=0 state=SSLv2/v3 read server hello A: unknown protocol)
This type of configuration is also the suggested method for configuring gmail in the redmine documentation [2].
As a workaround found by [1], you can remove the "tls: true" part of the configuration, while leaving in "enable_starttls_auto: true". I can also confirm that this workaround works for me, to make gmail & redmine working.

Confirmed that using only enable_starttls_auto: true fixes the issue.
Same problem here, and the workaround also worked. Thanks!
- Subject changed from TLS configuration broken since 2.0 to TLS configuration documentation for Rails 3
- Category changed from Email notifications to Documentation
- Status changed from New to Closed
- Target version set to 2.1.0
- Resolution set to Fixed
Example in configuration.yml.example fixed in r10340.
Help Me.
The problem occurrs in enviromento when start Redmine as Window Service.
My OS is Windows XP
Environment:
Redmine version 2.2.0.stable
Ruby version 1.9.2 (i386-mingw32)
Rails version 3.2.9
Environment development
Database adapter Mysql2
Redmine plugins:
no plugin installed
The suggested workaround did not work for me. Any more ideas?
Agreed with the above comment. I had email notifications working fine in Redmine 1.x but on upgrading to 2.x (actually 2.3.2.stable) the GMail notification email relay is not working. I have tried a bunch of different configuration settings and have not been able to get the right combination. Here is my current config:
default:
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: "MyGMailAccount@gmail.com"
password: "areallyhardpassword"
When I had tls: true in there I would get An error occurred while sending mail (SSL_connect returned=1 errno=0 state=SSLv2/v3 read server hello A: unknown protocol) but without the tls: true I get An error occurred while sending mail (530 5.7.0 Must issue a STARTTLS command first. fy7sm9145396qeb.1 - gsmtp ).
Are there further items that I should check to make sure I have everything required on my system/environment? What is the best way to debug/test this to get down to the nitty gritty details and pinpoint my problem? Any suggestions are greatly appreciated!
