Seam mail did not work in Tomcat

[rajeshv7]

I downloaded the jboss-seam-1.1.6.GA and deployed the seam mail sample on tomcat by running the command 'ant clean deploy.tomcat'

But in then mail application I gave a valid emailId and sent the mail. The message said 'Email sent successfully' but I didn't receive anything. Also no errors in the log. Also, we don't have a SMTP gateway.

Can some body help me with this?

thanks for your help

No, the mail example won't work ootb on tomcat (it uses meldware as an smtp server which doesn't support EEJB afaik).

You'll need to configure the mailSession in components.xml and set an SMTP gateway (the SMTP server as you would configure in your favourite MUA).

I'll add a note to the docs/example about this.

Petemuir,
Thanks for your immediate response. I tried running the sample after making the following change in the components.xml but still couldn't get it to work for some reason

<mail:mailSession host="smtp_server_name" port="25" username="username" password="password" />

thanks
Rajesh

1) Any exception that occurs is logged (at DEBUG level, rather than ERROR, I'll fix that for 1.1.7), please try sending a simple email (the first button) and post any exception that occurs.

2) Add debugging to JavaMail

<mail:mailSession host="smtp_server_name" port="25" username="username" password="password" />

and post the messages it prints out.

Petemuir,

The mail sample application started working once I moved the jboss-seam-mail.jar to the lib folder as mentioned in the seam ref doc section 16.2 Previously I had mistaken this jar for jboss-seam-email.jar

Sorry about the delay in my response as I had problem logging in the whole day yesterday.

Thanks for your help again.
