Smtp doctor test using port 465 even though its configured to use 2525

Installation

I am not receiving emails from the site or the doctor. I noticed that the doctor is using port 465 even though I configured it to use 2525:

==================== YML SETTINGS ====================
DISCOURSE_HOSTNAME=url
SMTP_ADDRESS=smtp.mailgun.org
DEVELOPER_EMAILS=REDACTED 
SMTP_PASSWORD=REDACTED 
SMTP_PORT=2525
SMTP_USER_NAME=url
LETSENCRYPT_ACCOUNT_EMAIL=REDACTED 

==================== MAIL TEST ====================
For a robust test, get an address from URL...
Sending mail to REDACTED  . . 
Testing sending to email@gmail.com using smtp.mailgun.org:465, username:postmaster@url with plain auth.
======================================== ERROR ========================================
                                    UNEXPECTED ERROR

Net::ReadTimeout

Is this expected? I used the smtp checker and it works with 2525 but times out with 465.

Hmm. Try

   ./launcher enter app 
    rake emails:test[user@address ]

I’m not sure how that might happen. I’ll try to have a look later.

That’s pretty cool. I didn’t know I could enter the app :smiley:. I’ll try that in a couple of hours. Thank you.

EDIT:

These are wrong. They should be like this:

Oops. That’s what discourse-doctor prints out. (I wrote that code, so I should have known!)

Oh, and looking at the code, what discourse-doctor does is run the rake task inside the container, so that should do exactly the same thing.

Did you rebuild, or at least destroy and start the container after making those changes?

For reference if you’re using ./discourse-setup then mailgun works with the default port (563)

I did a thing:

./../../var/discourse/launcher rebuild app

hope that works :crossed_fingers:

Yes. You need to

 ./launcher rebuild app

Though in this case you can

  ./launcher destroy app;./launcher start app

If you don’t do that then the changes to your app.yml have no effect.

Got it. I was under the assumption that restart would do the trick. Got a link to docs on this launcher thing?

Thanks again for all the awesome help :beers:

YES! That worked. You are the best! Have one on me::beers:
