Hi.

looks like something is misconfigured.

Code: Select all

SendEmail: You have not configured either the email server or the email account used to send email

In the Alarms setting at the bottom of the screen in cmx console, there is a send test email button. does it work when you do that?

I am running 3.28.3 and email works. i suggest you update to 3.28.3 then check the email settings are correct and then try a test email again.

also check the hash file to confirm all of 3.28.3 was uploaded.

Code: Select all

md5sum --check hash_md5_3280.txt --quiet

I did see that but configuration is OK for 3279.

if this is a bug I would expect it would affect me also since I too am on a linux distro. we shall see if other pi users have the same issue.

My SMTP settings below i.e. usimg exim4 with dc_smarthost to my postfix server

Code: Select all

[SMTP]
Enabled=1
ServerName=127.0.0.1
Port=25
SSLOption=0
RequiresAuthentication=0
User=
Password=
Logging=1
IgnoreCertErrors=0

I'm not using a localhost as an email server. that's why mine probably works.

Issue found on github in EmailSender.cs, line 33 and 114

Code: Select all

if (string.IsNullOrEmpty(cumulus.SmtpOptions.Server) || string.IsNullOrEmpty(cumulus.SmtpOptions.User))

Since line 35 and 116 say

Code: Select all

cumulus.LogWarningMessage("SendEmail: You have not configured either the email server, or the email account used to send email");

Maybe line 33 and 114 should be?

Code: Select all

if (string.IsNullOrEmpty(cumulus.SmtpOptions.Server) && string.IsNullOrEmpty(cumulus.SmtpOptions.User))

Ah, 'tis a bug. Stop MX and edit your Cumulus.ini and add a dummy entry for the SMTP user. I'd forgotten that mail servers may not require any authentication - such beasts exist!
