Configuration of Mail Server for MailTask

[al_lv]

Hallo all,

I tried to configure the mail server in activiti.cfg.xml directly in my project, but there is unfortunately no effect.
If I configure the mail server in the activiti.cfg.xml in apache-tomcat-6.0.29\webapps\activiti-rest\WEB-INF\lib\activiti-cfg.jar\ then works.
But it is very laborious.

What is the best way to configure the Mailserver?

Best regards

Alexej

The activiti.cfg.xml file in the rest-webapp is the engine configuration used for explorer and probe, so if you're using explorer and probe, this is the place to put the mail-server configuration. There is a servlet context-listener in the webapp that loads the ProcessEngine, based on the activiti.cfg.xml on the classpath.

If you don't need the rest-webapp (and explorer/probe), you can create the engine yourself: http://activiti.org/userguide/index.html#configuration
