Hi All!
Please, somebody help me!
Version Moodle 1.9.11+ (Build: 20110413)
SMTP working, ports not blocking
When I try to send a letter,get error:
SMTP -> ERROR: Failed to connect to server: Permission denied (13) ERROR: SMTP Error: Could not connect to SMTP host.
SMTP -> ERROR: Failed to connect to server: Permission denied (13) ERROR: SMTP Error: Could not connect to SMTP host.
Where to look for an error. In the Apache logs there is nothing in the logs of postfix too.
What have you specified as the SMTP host in Moodle under Site administration/Server/Email?
I specified "news.mydomain.com". SMTP login, SMTP password no need.
I have no problem with sending messages from the server.
Thanks for your help!
Are you using a valid e-mail server name. The "news" part of "news.mydomain.com" implies that you're using a usenet server, not an e-mail server. If so, does that usenet server allow e-mail relaying?
I'd be very weary of setting up an e-mail server that isn't password protected! That's a spammers paradise... Are you sure that a password isn't required?
Problem solved!!!
The problem was in selinux : "httpd_can_sendmail --> on".
Thanks for your help.
Ran Into this issue today - Thanks so much for this post - Saved me even more time spent
I'm having the same problem. What file did you change this setting in?
