Error, mail server is offline

[Kagilum]

I’ve read the other posts regarding this problem, but I still cannot seem to get it to work. I’m pretty newbie to this, so any help would be appreciated!

I’m running iceScrum Free on a Windows Server 2012 R2 with Tomcat 7 pointing to MS SQL Server 2014.

The application appears to be running properly, however, I cannot get the mail to work. I’m testing with the password reset feature, but all I get is the message «Error, mail server is offline».

My config.groovy has these couple of sections with some values (not true values listed below for email, password, etc.)

/* Alerts */

icescrum.auto_follow_productowner = true

icescrum.auto_follow_stakeholder  = true

icescrum.auto_follow_scrummaster  = true

icescrum.alerts.errors.to = "alerts@somewhere.com"

icescrum.alerts.subject_prefix = "[icescrum]"

icescrum.alerts.enable = true

icescrum.alerts.default.from = "webmaster@icescrum.com"



/* Mail Server */

grails.mail.host = "smtp.server.com"

grails.mail.port = 25

grails.mail.username = "username"

grails.mail.password = "password"



/* The props are required for SSL connections */

/*grails.mail.props = ["mail.smtp.auth":"true",

"mail.smtp.socketFactory.port":"25",

"mail.smtp.socketFactory.class":"javax.net.ssl.SSLSocketFactory",

"mail.smtp.socketFactory.fallback":"false"]

*/

Now, I’ve tried different ports and they’ve not worked (based on how Exchange was setup). I’ve tried commenting and uncommenting the entire props section with no luck either.

When I turn on debug mode, it doesn’t give me any weird errors.

Please help! Thanks!

Hello,

I don’t see any obvious problem in your configuration. The props section needs to be there only if you use SSL or anonymous connection to the mail server. The fact that you managed to turn on the debug mode indicates that your config.groovy is taken into account.

The only problem I can think of is that your email server cannot be reached by iceScrum. Can you ping / telnet the mail server with the configuration you have provided from the iceScrum Server?

[Kagilum]

I have the same problem. I’m working in the same enviroment as the orginal poster. I’m using smtp.gmail.com as server.

I can telnet smtp.gmail.com using port 587.
I have another app on the same server published using IIS. It uses smtp.gmail.com on port 587 without issues.
As the original poster, I don’t get any errors in debug mode but when I try to recover a password only the message informing that the mail server is down is shown.

these are my current config.groovy values

grails.mail.host = "smtp.gmail.com"

grails.mail.port = 587

grails.mail.username = "mail@cenipalma.org"

grails.mail.password = "..."

grails.mail.props = ["mail.smtp.auth":"true",

"mail.smtp.socketFactory.port":"587",

"mail.smtp.socketFactory.class":"javax.net.ssl.SSLSocketFactory",

"mail.smtp.socketFactory.fallback":"false"]

This is my icescrum.log

Thank you for your help.

[Nicolas Noullet]

As far as I know, the port for secured SMTP on gmail is 465, could you try it? (change it in both grails.mail.port and mail.smtp.socketFactory.port)

[Kagilum]

I tried to use port 465 but the port seems to be blocked. I will unblock this port and let you know what happens.

Edit: As expected, the port was blocked. After changing the port to 465 all is working perfectly.
Thank you.

[Nicolas Noullet]

Thanks for your feedback, glad to know that it works 🙂
