Hi Francesco,
I finally had the chance to give Syncope 2.0.4 a try on a fresh
machine as you suggested. Good news: I do not have any issues with the
notification page any more.
That's great to hear :-)
However, notifications are not working due to the email configuration.
I found the documentation in the reference guide lacks of important
details.
https://syncope.apache.org/docs/reference-guide.html#e-mail-configuration
1.The reference guide only names the properties. This is fine for
user, host, etc., but the protocol needs some explanation. I you have
never worked with JavaMail, you’re lost. It would be really helpful to
have a link from the Syncope mail properties to the JavaMail
properties (if this link exists). Or just give examples for SMTP with
STARTSSL (there is no flag for enabling StartSSL!?) and SMTPS scenarios.
Feel free to open a PR for improving the docs; in particular
https://github.com/apache/syncope/blob/2_0_X/src/main/asciidoc/reference-guide/workingwithapachesyncope/systemadministration/emailconfiguration.adoc
If you would like to go along this way, please first take a look at
http://syncope.apache.org/contributing.html
and send an ICLA as specified, thanks!
2.Where to find the promised debug output when mailDebug is set to
true? I restarted tomcat and created a notification task. There is no
info on “handshake, authentication, delivery and disconnection” in
catalina.out or core.log or console.log
This would need some investigation: would you mind opening an issue on
JIRA? Thanks.
Regards.
