Email settings configuration in Sonar not working

问题:

I have configured the email settings for my Sonar instance under Configuration--> general Seetings --> Email .

The configuration details are as below.

SMTP host: mysmtpserver.com<br>
SMTP Port: 25<br>
Use secure connection: No<br>
SMTP username: Blank<br>
SMTP password:Blank<br>
From address:[e-mail]<br>
Email prefix: [SONAR]

I have saved these settings and when I try to test it, I get the below error in Sonar screen

org.apache.commons.mail.EmailException: Sending the email to the following server failed : mysmtpserver.com:25

Below is the stracktrace of the exception

Note: The same SMTP server settings work fine for Gerrit and Jenkins without requiring any authentication.

Any help would be appreciated.

回答1:

It seems that your SMTP server does not allow sending mails anonymously (i.e. without a user & a password) when you provide a "from address".

You should take a look at the configuration of your Jenkins or Gerrit instances, they probably do not specify any "from address". In that case, remove the "[e-mail]" entry and make a try.
