Email Sent from console & email summaries stopped working

[superseby2]

Hello,

Starting a couple of days ago I noticed exception in logs like the one at the end of this post.
Running the test from the console would trigger the same issue

php yii test/email

Looking closer at the logs, I realized the HELO command using [127.0.0.1].

When looking at /var/www/humhub/protected/vendor/swiftmailer/swiftmailer/lib/classes/Swift/Transport/AbstractSmtpTransport.php

I just cannot figure out, how, when running from the console the domain name is set ? Not being a PHP expert I must have missed something?

What steps will reproduce the problem?

php yii test/email

What is the expected result?

Email being sent

What do you get instead?

Exception as show below

Additional info

• Running the test from the webconsole works perfectly.
• As mentionned in the title, it "used to work", and that is what bugs me ...
• I had to hard-code our domain name in AbstractSmtpTransport.php to make all this work. Of course this is not viable solution.
• The php is running within a Docker container. I tried to change the hostname with no improvement

Any pointers on how you guys are setting the domain name before sending emails would help me to understand what I have done to break this thing. 😃

Thx !

I realized we can export an ENV variable like export SERVER_NAME and it seems to be picked up by PHP code.
Is it how everything should be done?

Unfortunately, I can't quite reproduce your problem.

If you don't have any individual config file settings, HumHub should use the admin settings.

Here you can retrieve the values:

php protected/yii settings/list base

Thanks @luke,

Strangely enough, all settings seem to be picked up allright except for the domain name 🤔
My workaround (passing the ENV value is doing the trick though) .

Since you cannot reproduce the pb your end, I guess we could close this issue. Up to you.

Thx!

Thanks for the response. If you have more details, feel free to add them here. Until then I would close the issue, it doesn't seem to be a common problem.
