configuring mail notification

[peter]

Hi,

i am having difficulties with configuring the mail notification service of OpenKM. i have studied the wiki and also the pdf documentation but somehow it is not working for me. any help would be greatly appriciated.

here\'s what i have done so far:

i have made the mail-service. xml file and placed it in C:\\OpenKM-1.2_JBoss-4.0.3SP1\\OpenKM-1.2_JBoss-4.0.3SP1\\server\\default\\deploy

mail-service.xml:

Code: Select all

<?xml version=\"1.0\" encoding=\"UTF-8\"?>
<!DOCTYPE server>
<!-- $Id: mail-service.xml,v 1.5.6.1 2005/06/01 06:20:43 starksm Exp $ -->

<server>

  <!-- ==================================================================== -->
  <!-- Mail Connection Factory                                              -->
  <!-- ==================================================================== -->

  <!-- OpenKM -->
  <mbean code=\"org.jboss.mail.MailService\" name=\"jboss:service=mail/OpenKM\">
    <attribute name=\"JNDIName\">java:/mail/OpenKM</attribute>
    <attribute name=\"Configuration\">
      <configuration>
        <property name=\"mail.transport.protocol\" value=\"smtp\"/>
        <property name=\"mail.smtp.host\" value=\"mail.vabi.nl\"/>
        <property name=\"mail.from\" value=\"info@vabi.vl\"/>
        <property name=\"mail.debug\" value=\"false\"/>
      </configuration>
      <depends>jboss:service=Naming</depends>
    </attribute>
  </mbean>
</server>

then i have made the emails.properties file and placed it in
C:\\OpenKM-1.2_JBoss-4.0.3SP1\\OpenKM-1.2_JBoss-4.0.3SP1\\server\\default\\conf

emails.properties:

Code: Select all

system=leone.peter@gmail.com
user1=p.leone@vabi.nl
user2=leone.peter@gmail.com
user3=p.leone@vabi.nl
EBoom=leone.peter@gmail.com
JMuis=p.leone@vabi.nl
VKok=leone.peter@gmail.com

Finaly i have edited the OpenKM.cfg wich is located at:
C:\\OpenKM-1.2_JBoss-4.0.3SP1\\OpenKM-1.2_JBoss-4.0.3SP1

and added this line:
application.url=http://localhost:8080/OpenKM/es.git.ope ... /index.jsp

as far as i can tell i should work the server log is:

Code: Select all

2008-02-18 15:05:42,390 INFO  [STDOUT] javax.mail.SendFailedException: Sending failed;
  nested exception is:
	class javax.mail.SendFailedException: Invalid Addresses;
  nested exception is:
	class javax.mail.SendFailedException: 550 5.7.1 Unable to relay for leone.peter@gmail.com
;
  nested exception is:
	class javax.mail.SendFailedException: 550 5.7.1 Unable to relay for leone.peter@gmail.com
;

can you see what i have done wrong or have forgotten to do?
thanks

Peter

The configuration seems to be ok. Seems to be a SMTP error. Try to set \"mail.debug\" to \"true\".

Do you know if your mail server needs some special configuration like TLS, or other ?

In your mail-service.xml I\'ve not see:

<attribute name=\"User\">nobody</attribute>
<attribute name=\"Password\">password</attribute>

Hope in your mail-service have it ( it\'s credentials to your mail server ).

hi,

first of all i would like to thank you (jilort and pavila) for your quick response to all of my questions. i think that it is good service and great for people like me who need some serieus help now and then so keep up the good work.

i added the user and password fields as suggested by jilort but it stil would not work. i then tried the suggestion of pavila and turned on the error report. eventhough i did not understand most of what was shown i did notice that i kept getting the error that user@gmail.com was no good (eventhough this e-mail does exist)

anyway i deleted that entry in the emails.properties and then restarted and now it works perfectly (even witout the user and password fields in the e-mails.xml file)

i do not know what the problem is but i do now i am happy it works and it is a nother great feature of OpenKM.

i think next week i am going to try and intergrate the logon with our active dir (i think that i read somewhere that that was possible!?!)
so you will be hearing from me soon i think!! lol

thanx again guys you are great

Peter
