issues sending smtp with email-otp

[Stephen Hobbs]

I have installed privacyidea 2.7 and successfully tested HOTP tokens. I am unable to get email-otp working I have tried using a remote and local smtp server,  with and without smtp authentication and TLS on/off. When I test the authentication by sending the OTP pin no email are sent or received. Any ideas to debug very welcome.

Hello Stephan,

you need to create a policy

scope:authentication
action:challenge_response=email

http://privacyidea.readthedocs.org/en/latest/policies/authentication.html#challenge-response

In version 2.8 this will not be necessary anymore, since an email token
is --- lets say --- always in challenge response mode.

You can also run HOTP and TOTP in challenge response (first sending PIN
and then OTP) but for this you will need to define

action:challenge_response=hotp totp email

Kind regards
Cornelius

Cornelius

Thank you that fixed it. I found a minor bug with TLS activation under Config->Tokens->Email. If TLS support is checked it can not be unchecked.

command line fix:
echo "USE privacyidea;UPDATE config set config.value='' where config.key='email.tls';" | mysql -u privacyidea -p
