Latest King Phisher unable to connect to Gmail SMTP:587

[chrisandjer949]

Issue Description

I am able to launch KP fine. Tried to connect to smtp.gmail.com:587 with my gmail username and App password.

All i see on the KP terminal window is: Warning: received a socket error while connecting to the smtp server... The strange thing is that I have another Kali VM in the same subnet running another GoPhish and that can connect to smtp.gmail.com:587 with no issues.

Reproduction Steps

1. Start King Phisher
2. Tried to send test email to smtp.gmail.com:587 with my gmail account name and App password.

Environment Details

Host OS: Kali 18.04
King Phisher Version: 1.13.0

Error Details / Stack Trace

Where do I get the stack traces?

[zeroSteiner]

Well you're using port 587 and according to my notes in the docs you need to use 465 with SSL turned on. Can you give that a shot and see if it fixes it?

If it does not, please include all of the relevant settings in the SMTP configuration tab. Can you also include the verbose output from when you try to connect too?

[chrisandjer949]

Ok, looks like problem is solved using port 465. My bad and Thank you. The verbose logs looks normal. However, please see one error towards the bottom. Something wrong with my install? I am missing a module?

ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'numpy.core._multiarray_umath'

Well it's not clear what's throwing the exception. It doesn't appear to be uncaught because there's no stack trace. Matplotlib is the only component that uses numpy to my knowledge, we don't use it directly. If you can load the client and view graphs, you're probably just fine.

[chrisandjer949]

All the graphs appear to be loading fine. Thanks again for the quick help! Case closed.
