Unable to send mail

[David Tan]

Hi,
I am new to Dspace Cris7 and having some trouble getting Dspace to send out mail. I manage to setup Postfix and it work fine. However when I try to register as a new user, Dspace says the email is send out succesfully. However after checking Dpsace log, I get this error

2022-08-20 15:04:01,721 ERROR 735b7f75-b394-496b-bf8c-a58e27bc87d1 5d7b922f-acb2-49c4-8921-44baa71850e9 org.dspace.app.rest.repository.RegistrationRestRepository @ Something went wrong with sending registration info email: Joh...@gmail.com

I would appreicate anyone that can point me to where I can set the STARTTLS. 

Thank you

David

As this is the most recent question about this error, I'll post here how I solved this. Just add this setting to your config file (local.cfg):

mail.extraproperties = mail.smtp.starttls.enable=true
