Can't set the correct URL for my email notifications

savo — Fri, 15 Jun 2018 09:00:27 GMT

Hey,I am using System email templates, and in the APS docs it says I have to change email.base.url, so mails would have the correct link to their tasks, or whatever. Example: http://192.168.1.24:8090/activiti-app/workflow/#/task/37506, but all I get, after configuring is: http://localhost:8080/work

Are you really using APS? I see in your post that you say Alfresco Enterprise 5.2.3. If you're using Alfresco Content Services, there are different settings that you use for notifications (see Outbound SMTP configuration properties | Alfresco Documentation ). I've got an example that works for APS that you can see on a recent blog post I did (see https://www.ziaconsulting.com/developer-help/using-docker-alfresco-process-services/ ).

Oops, my mistake. It's APS 1.8.1

Anyway, I have already seen your tutorial and it's exactly what I had expected I had had to do. But still, when I get the notification email, it lead me to localhost:8080

I will try later with a gmail account.

Reason why this happened is because activiti-app.properties in '.../tomcat/lib' had, for some reason already defined email.base.url=localhost:8080, somewhere in the bottom of the page. Commenting that out fixed it.
