I can't figure for the life of me why exactly is it failing.. this is the exact error I am getting:
Fatal error: Uncaught exception 'Swift_TransportException' with message 'Connection
could not be established with host smtp.gmail.com [Connection refused #111]' in
/home/content/38/6896038/html/test/lib/classes/Swift/Transport/StreamBuffer.php:259

And the code Im using is what I've gotten from the tutorial and reading on here examples, here it is:
require_once 'lib/swift_required.php';
$transport = Swift_MailTransport::newInstance();
// Create the Transport the call setUsername() and setPassword()
$transport = Swift_SmtpTransport::newInstance('smtp.gmail.com', 465, 'ssl')
->setUsername('email@googleappsdomain.com')
->setPassword('xxx')
;
// Create the Mailer using your created Transport
$mailer = Swift_Mailer::newInstance($transport);
$nombre = $_POST['name'];
$apellido = $_POST['apellido'];
$email = $_POST['email'];
$telefono = $_POST['telefono'];
$title = $_POST['jobtitle'];
// Create the message
$message = Swift_Message::newInstance()
// Give the message a subject
->setSubject('Nuevo applicante para: ' . $title)
// Set the From address with an associative array
->setFrom(array('no-reply@topytop.com.pe' => 'no-reply'))
// Set the To addresses with an associative array
->setTo('email@thisemail.com')
// Give it a body
->setBody('<html>
<head></head>
<body>
<table>
<tr>
<td>Nombre:</td><td>' . $nombre . ' ' . $apellido .'</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Email:</td><td>' . $email . '</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Telefono:</td><td>'. $telefono .'</td>
</tr>
</table>
</body>
</html>', 'text/html')
// Optionally add any attachments
->attach(Swift_Attachment::fromPath($_FILES["file"]["tmp_name"])->setFilename($_FILES['file']['name']));
// Send the message
$result = $mailer->send($message);
any help is greatly appreciated, I've done my reading and searching and cannot find a solution to this :(
EDIT: Apparently it's an issue with gmail, I changed to a different smtp and it worked.. :S
I had the same issue when I was using Godaddy web hosting and solved this by editing my .env file as,
Where MAIL_HOST is your domain name from Godaddy, MAIL_USERNAME is your user name from Godaddy and MAIL_PASSWORD is your password from Godaddy.
I hope this may help you.
remove from your config.yml
spool: { type: memory }
Then you will be to add try catch like this
firstly,check for gmail SMTP server . you should have to allow access for less secured apps without allowing swift mailer is not possible.for this login in your email account first then go into privacy settings and then click on sign and security then click on apps without access and then make on to less secure apps option then try mailer again, it will work then.
I had the same issue and i manage to fix it by disabling my AVAST Anti Virus. As well as my AVAST extension in the browser. Antivirus sometimes blocks your application. :) I hope it helps to anyone.
I had the same problem for a while, replacing:
smtp.gmail.com
with173.194.65.108
actually worked for me!Connection refused is a very explicit and clear error message. It means that the socket connection could not be established because the remote end actively refused to connect.
It's very unlikely that Google is blocking the connection.
It's very likely that your web hosting provider has firewall settings that block outgoing connections on port 465, or that they are blocking SMTP to Gmail. 465 is the "wrong" port for secure SMTP, though it is often used, and Gmail does listen there. Try port 587 instead. If the connection is still refused, call your host and ask them what's up.
