    Mail Node

    syedtaj

      How does this email node work.

      Do we have to hardcode eveything into the xml? Cant we create the subject, mail content etc and then use it in the email node.

      Would be great if anyone can advise how the node works.

          Yes, I have the same doubt.
          I know that I am asking too much, but I did understand how to configure JBoss jBPM to use the mail-node.
          I am trying to follow this guide http://docs.jboss.org/jbpm/v3/userguide/mail.html but It is a little confuse.

          Inside my jBPM project in eclipse there is a configuration file called jbpm.cfg.xml. By default it came empty. Inside the file there are only some informations, not very clear, about how customize the jbpm.cfg.xml's values.

          I configured the jbpm.cfg.xml file like below:

          <jbpm-configuration>
          
           <jbpm-context>
           <service name="persistence">
           <factory>
           <bean class="org.jbpm.persistence.db.DbPersistenceServiceFactory">
           <field name="isTransactionEnabled"><false/></field>
           </bean>
           </factory>
           </service>
           <service name="tx" factory="org.jbpm.tx.TxServiceFactory" />
           <service name="message" factory="org.jbpm.msg.db.DbMessageServiceFactory" />
           <service name="scheduler" factory="org.jbpm.scheduler.db.DbSchedulerServiceFactory" />
           <service name="logging" factory="org.jbpm.logging.db.DbLoggingServiceFactory" />
           <service name="authentication" factory="org.jbpm.security.authentication.DefaultAuthenticationServiceFactory" />
           </jbpm-context>
          
           <string name="resource.hibernate.cfg.xml" value="jbpm.hibernate.cfg.xml" />
          
           <string name="resource.parsers" value="org/jbpm/jpdl/par/jbpm.parsers.xml" />
          
           <string name="jbpm.mail.templates" value="jbpm.mail.templates.xml" />
           <string name="resource.mail.properties" value="jbpm.mail.properties" />
          
           <string name="jbpm.mail.smtp.host" value="MySMTPServer" />
           <bean name="jbpm.mail.address.resolver" class="org.jbpm.identity.mail.IdentityAddressResolver" singleton="true" />
           <string name="jbpm.mail.from.address" value="wf@test.com" />
          
          </jbpm-configuration>
          


          Then I tried to send an email using a email-node. I filled the form "Mail Info" in eclipse, with the subject, "to" and the message, then I deployed my process and start it from the jBPM Adm Console. In my process there is a form with a "SEND" button, when I click in SEND, my process should go to the mail-node and send the email. But when I did that I received the error below in jBPM Adm Console:

          Error completing task: An exception of type "org.jbpm.JbpmException" was thrown. The message is: couldn't send email

          The complete error is below:

          Probably I did not do the correct configurations to use email-node in jBPM.
          Any body could help me?
          Any help would be appreciated!

          Thanks very much!

            I forgot to say, I am using JBoss jBPM 3.2.2.

            Thank you!

              FornChari:
              It looks like the address to whom you are sending is not in the mail server you are testing with and causing the exception. I suggest you try usign your own address resolver class which implements org.jbpm.mail.AddressResolver that will change the id of the actor as per your mailserver domain.

                Sreepathia, thanks for your reply.

                I'm sure that the address that I am sending the email is in the mail server that I am using, because I use the specified smtp server in others applications (no jBPM applications) with the same email address that I am trying now.
                Would you think that is a configuration problem? Maybe with my jbpm.cfg.xml oy other thing that I didn't do?

                Thanks!

                  TThis has nothing to do with jBPM. The error:

                  550 5.7.1 Unable to relay for MyName@MyCompany.com

                  Is from your mailserver. It just does not accept this adres.

                    Kukeltje,

                    I did a program in Java, using the class javax.mail, and, using the code below, I can send email, using the same smtp server and the same email address that I tried in jBPM:

                    Properties p = new Properties();
                    p.put("mail.host", "MyServerSMTP");
                    Session session = Session.getInstance(p, null);
                    MimeMessage msg = new MimeMessage(session);
                    msg.setFrom(new InternetAddress("request.notify@workflowmachine.com"));
                    msg.setRecipient(Message.RecipientType.TO, new InternetAddress("myname@mycompany.com"));
                    msg.setSentDate(new Date());
                    msg.setSubject("Teste");
                    msg.setText("Email test!");
                    Transport.send(msg);


                    So, I suppose that my mailserver accepts the address that I using, doesn't it?

                      class javax.mail.SendFailedException: Invalid Addresses;
                       nested exception is:
                       class javax.mail.SendFailedException: 550 5.7.1 Unable to relay for MyName@MyCompany.com
                      
                       at javax.mail.Transport.send0(Transport.java:218)


                      msg.setFrom(new InternetAddress("request.notify@workflowmachine.com"));
                      msg.setRecipient(Message.RecipientType.TO, new InternetAddress("myname@mycompany.com"));
                      

                      The address looks to have some caps charecters then the one you posted recently.try making this case sensitive,all lower case.

                      Thanks

                        Thank you for your reply sreepathia,

                        When I writed "mycompany@mycompany" and "MyCompany@MyCompany" it was just to give an example, here I am using my real email "felipe.fornachari@........", so the problem is not my email address, probably is some configuration in the config XML.

                        But thank you..

                        If some one have I idea, please, let me know!

                          ALWAYS post what you realy use, not replacements... if in the test app you use felipe... then in the process also use felipe...

                              is it possible that jbpm version 3.2.2. doesnt support smtp authentification? I cant find any authentification code in the responsible class http://www.java2s.com/Open-Source/Java-Document/Workflow-Engines/jbpm-jpdl-3.2.2/org/jbpm/mail/Mail.java.htm.

                              Maybe thats the source of the mentioned problems.[/url]
