I just now encoutered like this problem. In my roller-custom.properties,displayed below,why doesn't it right?
installation.type=auto database.configurationType=jdbc database.jdbc.driverClass=com.mysql.jdbc.Driver database.jdbc.connectionURL=jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/rollerdb database.jdbc.username=scott database.jdbc.password=tiger mail.configurationType=properties mail.smtp.host=smtp.gmail.com [email protected] [email protected] [email protected] mail.password=testtest and I can't view all the maillists in 2007 at http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/roller- 2009-09-16 wdaogang 发件人： Vivek Gupta 发送时间： 2009-09-15 15:34:57 收件人： user 抄送： 主题： SMTP host without SSL I configured Roller 4.0 for mail settings shown below - mail.hostname=smtp.gmail.com mail.username=admin mail.password=admin123 mail.port=465 On startup the roller logs are showing the exception WARN 2009-09-15 11:24:40,078 WebloggerStartup:prepare - Failed to setup mail provider, continuing anways. Reason: ERROR connecting to mail server org.apache.roller.weblogger.business.startup.StartupException: ERROR connecting to mail server at org.apache.roller.weblogger.business.MailProvider.<init>(MailProvider.java:99) ........ ........ javax.mail.MessagingException: Could not connect to SMTP host: localhost, port: 25; nested exception is: java.net.ConnectException: Connection refused: connect at com.sun.mail.smtp.SMTPTransport.openServer(SMTPTransport.java:1282) at com.sun.mail.smtp.SMTPTransport.protocolConnect(SMTPTransport.java:370) at javax.mail.Service.connect(Service.java:275) I believe this exception occus because Gmail mail server only allows SSL connection. Does anybody aware of any mail server which allows connection without SSL? or Is there any document/article available about how to setup mail with SSL for Roller 4.0? I tried but couldn't find any.... Regards, Viv
