I set up Discourse, activated my account email, why am I still constantly receiving account activation emails every so often? How to configure to solve this bug

john10 · October 4, 2025, 5:15am

I have set up Discourse and activated my account email, but why am I still receiving emails with account activation information every so often? How can I configure this to solve this bug?

pfaffman · October 4, 2025, 7:08pm

Welcome!

Is this a self-hosted site?

Are these emails sent to the same address that you successfully registered?

Did you request an activation email a bunch of times before you got your mail configured (if so, then it’s a good bet that all of those emails will eventually be sent).

john10 · October 5, 2025, 7:06am

Thanks for the reply. I set up Discourse on my own cloud server. The setup was successful, and emails can be sent, for example, when a new account is registered and activated. However, it keeps resending emails afterwards. When I click the link, I can no longer activate the account. The same abnormal behavior occurs when I request a forgotten password.

pfaffman · October 5, 2025, 10:51am

You see the smtp error on the log. There is still sometime wrong auth your mail server.

john10 · October 5, 2025, 10:59am

It has been received normally, why is this exception still occurring?

Below is my configuration

rui5man · October 6, 2025, 8:29am

I have had this problem for a long time, fortunately there are not many users. I will manually stop it once I see it. If it’s resolved, please @rui5man

john10 · October 6, 2025, 9:48am

It hasn’t been resolved, how can it be resolved? I still encounter it when I rebuild.

I pulled the latest version, is there a stable version?

merefield · October 6, 2025, 10:00am

Are there any repetitive errors in your main logs? “/logs”?

might be more convenient to look in /logs with a filter on errors - your top screenshot is sidekiq queue - not really the focus of my suggestion.

john10 · October 6, 2025, 12:10pm

Can you elaborate on the method?

What logs are needed?

I currently only see this information log.

Moin · October 6, 2025, 12:15pm

You add /logs to the URL of your forum, or you use the link at the top right of the logs section of your forum.

merefield · October 6, 2025, 12:33pm

the browser-based logs viewer will allow you to filter on errors - a lot easier than searching logs by tailing the file unless you are really used to the command line.

How to configure discourse to disable TLS and use SSL?

merefield · October 6, 2025, 6:43pm

DISCOURSE_SMTP_ENABLE_SSL: true?

john10 · October 6, 2025, 6:48pm

DISCOURSE_SMTP_SSL: true This attribute was added by me earlier to try and resolve this error.

Can you confirm if setting this attribute to true enables SSL?

Disabling TLS is: DISCOURSE_SMTP_ENABLE_START_TLS: false??
