OK, I have spent some time this morning investigating these issues. It seems we have a regression for the bug http://issues.alfresco.com/browse/AWC-966 which is explained at the beginning of this thread. It seems a merge has been missed along the line somwehere and the fix applied to 1.4 has not made it into the 2.x codeline.I have applied the fix to the enterprise branch for 2.x, this should get merged to HEAD and mirrored in the next few days. In the meantime it's a simple fix if you want to apply it your local copy.In org.alfresco.web.bean.wizard.WizardManager in the setCurrentWizard() method move the following line before the call to wizard.init()this.currentWizardState = new WizardState(config, wizard);
As for the other reported issues where emails are failing to get sent, there is a red herring in the exception message. Where it says "Failed to send email to null", that was caused by a mistake in the error handling.Change the catch block in org.alfresco.repo.action.executer.MailActionExecuter to read as follows:String to = (String)ruleAction.getParameterValue(PARAM_TO);
if (to == null)
{
Object obj = ruleAction.getParameterValue(PARAM_TO_MANY);
if (obj != null)
{
to = obj.toString();
}
}
logger.error("Failed to send email to " + to, e);
You should now see that it is trying to send mail to the appropriate users/groups.This leads me to believe that the errors are coming from the email sender itself and not Alfresco. I have been able to successfully send emails to multiple addresses and groups without error.What email server have you guys configured in? Could you possibly test sending email with this engine in a small test harness outside of Alfresco to verify that it is working.
