---------------------------------
Summary: Sending an email from a Java TimerTask object doesn't work
Key: EMAIL-157
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/EMAIL-157
Project: Commons Email
Issue Type: Bug
Affects Versions: 1.4
Environment: OS: Windows 8.1 Pro / IDE: Eclipse Juno / Servlets
container: Tomcat 8
Reporter: LEA MASSIOT
Hello,
I'm using "Apache Commons Email 1.4".
Consider the following simple code:
{code}
import org.apache.commons.mail.Email;
import org.apache.commons.mail.EmailException;
import org.apache.commons.mail.SimpleEmail;
[...]
Email email = new SimpleEmail();
email.setHostName("smtp.foo.bar");
try
{
email.setFrom("[email protected]");
email.setSubject("TestMail");
email.setMsg("This is a test mail ... :-)");
email.addTo("[email protected]");
email.send();
}
catch(EmailException e)
{
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e.printStackTrace();
}
{code}
The code above is put:
- CASE 1: in the *doPost()* method of a *HttpServlet* object: it works (I
receive the email).
- CASE 2: at runtime (there are no build errors), in the *run()* method of a
*TimerTask* object:
If I put a breakpoint on the line *Email email = new SimpleEmail();*
hit F6 in Eclipse to execute the instruction,
I get the message: Source not found.
What am I doing wrong? What is going wrong? How can I make it work?
Best regards.
