Hi,

I'm having trouble making email notifications work on Greenligh.

I set up the SMTP credentials in .env file, then restarted greenlight with docker-compose dwon and then docker compuse up -d

I get this error in log/production.log

Support: Error in email delivery: end of file reached

ERROR: [379cbe67-b192-40f2-8332-e8a8506e1326] Support: Error in email delivery: end of file reached

This is my SMTP config

SMTP_SERVER=email-smtp.us-west-2.amazonaws.com
SMTP_PORT=465
SMTP_DOMAIN=amazonses.com
SMTP_USERNAME=<username>
SMTP_PASSWORD=<password>
SMTP_AUTH=plain
SMTP_STARTTLS_AUTO=true

SMTP_SENDER=webi...@colmena.tech

I've tried SMTP_AUTH=plain and SMTP_AUTH=login but niether work.

I also tried with other smtp services like gmail


Thanks for your help.

Hi Alfonso,

Whats the output of "docker run --rm --env-file .env bigbluebutton/greenlight:v2 bundle exec rake conf:check"?

You're trying to hook up to the mail server using TLS but with the SSL Port (465). If you used the TLS Port instead (587) then you should be able to send emails

Hi Alfonso,

on the other mailing list we have Jan saying about the identical thing, so I will give you a suggestion to follow:

a (very) brief introduction to opening port 587 is on this answer[1] It gives also a bit more background to allow IN, allow OUT. 

Regards,
Phill.

Theank you very much.

It was a connectivity issue.

I ended up using Gmail, for that I needed to create an App password.
