Hi, I just sucessfully installed a mail server on my virtual machine. I tested it out, and it can send mail out(I sent a mail from the computer to my gmail account and I recieved it). Now I installed discourse, the forums are running perfectly, but I can't seem to get the confirmation mail for my first admin account. When I launch
sudo ./launcher mailtest app`
I get the error: ERROR: hostname 'mail.server.com' doesn't match 'ubuntu'.
Now my settings are like this(in the app,yml):
DISCOURSE_DEVELOPER_EMAILS: 'mymai@domain.com'
DISCOURSE_HOSTNAME: 'localhost' --the virtual machine box IP is 10.1.0.210, where I can access the forums
DISCOURSE_SMTP_ADDRESS: 'mail.server.com'
okay so the "mail.server.com" is my postfix hostname. In my /etc/hosts I have edited it like this
10.1.0.210 mail.server.com
127.0.0.1 localhost
127.0.1.1 ubuntu
I didn't change anything here except for the added mail.server.com.
Now my etc/hostname looks like this
ubuntu
10.1.0.210 mail.server.com
My postfix is configured with the relay mail server of our company, and when I try to send mail to any email accounts from the command line, it works. I get the email. It's not even in the spam folder. So I guess this is configured correctly.
DISCOURSE_SMTP_PORT: 25
I have tried using 587 but it gives me even more errros and says conn refused.
DISCOURSE_SMTP_USER_NAME: 'mymail@domain.com'
DISCOURSE_SMTP_PASSWORD: 'mypassword'
And that's it from my side, hope you guys can help.
The initial goal was to connect drupal with these forums, is this even possible? Thanks!
