[SOLVED]Im getting exceptions on mail task

[gnevzmaja]

Hi all, ant thanx for looking into this.
I'm having troubles with sending mail.
I set properties inside \activiti-5.8\setup\files\cfg.activiti\standalone\activiti.cfg.xml then made fresh build

activiti.cfg.xml now look like this

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<beans xmlns="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans" 
       xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
       xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans   http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans/spring-beans.xsd">

  </bean>
</beans>

Every time I get to the mail task this exception is thrown:

@HttpServlet.java:717 line there is
service(request, response);
Does this mean that request hasnt been well sent? Or am I missing something else?

Thanx a lot for your responses,

I found the solution to the problem:

Since this is not very well documented (at least for me, since I haven't found my way through…) I will explain my procedure for the solution.

Activiti is version 5.8:

If you want to send your mails from activiti-explorer you have to alter bean processEngineConfiguration inside this file \activiti-5.8\setup\files\webapps\activiti-explorer.war\WEB-INF\applicationContext.xml then make a fresh build.

<bean id="processEngineConfiguration" class="org.activiti.spring.SpringProcessEngineConfiguration">
   <property name="dataSource" ref="dataSource" />
   <property name="transactionManager" ref="transactionManager" />
   <property name="databaseSchemaUpdate" value="true" />
   <property name="jobExecutorActivate" value="true" />
    <property name="customFormTypes">
<list>
        <ref bean="userFormType"/>
      </list>
    </property>
<property name="mailServerHost" value="xxx" />
<property name="mailServerPort" value="25" />
<property name="mailServerDefaultFrom" value="xxx" />
<property name="mailServerUsername" value="xxx" />
<property name="mailServerPassword" value="xxx" />
  </bean>

Hi,

I done with this changes like applicationContext.xml .But i got the same error.
Please any one help me.

Thanks,
Valarmathi P

[valarmathi]

Hi,

I changed the applicationContext.xml inside of tomcat/activiti-explorer/web-inf directory.It's working for me,now i got the mail through activiti-explorer.

add the code inside of applicationContext.xml file

<bean id="processEngineConfiguration" class="org.activiti.spring.SpringProcessEngineConfiguration">
   <property name="dataSource" ref="dataSource" />
   <property name="transactionManager" ref="transactionManager" />
   <property name="databaseSchemaUpdate" value="true" />
   <property name="jobExecutorActivate" value="true" />
    <property name="customFormTypes">
      <list>
        <ref bean="userFormType"/>
      </list>
    </property>
<!– added for mail config –>

<property name="mailServerHost" value="xxx.com" />
   <property name="mailServerPort" value="25" />
   <property name="mailServerDefaultFrom" value="xxx@xx.com" />
   <property name="mailServerUsername" value="xxxxxx" />
   <property name="mailServerPassword" value="xxxxx" />
  </bean>

Thanks,
Valarmathi P

Hi, I have the same problem, I've added the code into my applicationContext.xml file and have filled in the values but I still get the same error:

org.activiti.engine.ActivitiException: Could not send e-mail

Any suggestions?

Thank you
