Not able to send invites to people on Social Office

[12年前 に praveen orvakanti によって更新されました。]

Hi All,
I have installed SO on my system. Its basically running on its embedded HSQL. I just wanted to get used to its functioning. When i tried to send invites to other people, i'm getting the following error:

11:36:10,578 WARN [MailEngine:490] Failed to connect to a valid mail server. Please make sure one is properly configured. Could not connect to SMTP host: local
host, port: 25.

I haven't changed any settings for SO as of now. So if i do need to make any changes, where do i do and what do i do?

The invites are sent through email, so you have to have the mail engine in SO set up.

There are 2 ways to do it.

First way, in the Control Panel under Server Administration you click on the Mail tab (third from the right) and set up your mail server info there.

Second way, you add the following settings into your portal-ext.properties file:

mail.session.mail.pop3.host=localhost
mail.session.mail.pop3.password=
mail.session.mail.pop3.port=110
mail.session.mail.pop3.user=
mail.session.mail.smtp.auth=false
mail.session.mail.smtp.host=localhost
mail.session.mail.smtp.password=
mail.session.mail.smtp.port=25
mail.session.mail.smtp.user=
mail.session.mail.store.protocol=pop3
mail.session.mail.transport.protocol=smtp

Hi Michael,
I have actually configured the mail server details in portal-ext.properties file. Even then i get the same error.

Thanks

Praveen,

What operating system are you running SO on?

Praveen,

What operating system are you running SO on?

Windows XP

Not sure if I can help you there then as I'm currently running ours on CentOS 6.

Only thing I can suggest is to check your firewall(s) and make sure that the port to the mail server isn't being blocked.

Are you running the mail server on the same machine or remotely?

Michael,
Its a corporate Mail server that im using. Even if i switch to Gmail, i would have to go through corporate firewall.
