I am VERY new with teamcity so please bear with me
I set up an email notifier to let me know when a build has failed, but TeamCity is reporting the following error:
Failed to send email notification via
SMTP server mail, due to error:
Unknown SMTP host: mail; nested
exception is:
java.net.UnknownHostException: mail
For the life of me, I cannot find where to configure the mail server settings. I don't even want it to use an SMTP server, but I don't see any options for this anywhere.

You can configure your email settings under Administration - Server Configuration - Email Notifier..
Sumeru's answer (https://stackoverflow.com/a/825701/86627) describes the mail account you need to set in order for TeamCity to be able to send email notifications. The actual notifications are sent on a per-user base. Each user can define the notificatinos they wish to receive. In teamCity Professional 7x You can do this under:
Username/My Settings & tools/Watched Builds and Notifications/Email Notifier

I am using Apache Ambari 2.7.3V. I am trying to configure Email Alerts. I have Followed the Below Link. But I am not getting any alerts To my Gmail. Below are my configurations
https://docs.cloudera.com/HDPDocuments/Ambari-2.7.4.0/managing-and-monitoring-ambari/content/amb_create_an_alert_notification.html
In Manage Alert Notifications I have configured All required configurations. like below.
Name: amabri Alerts
groups: All
Severity: WARNING, CRITICAL
Description : xxxxxxxx
METHOD: EMAIL
SMTP SERVER: smtp-relay.gmail.com
SMTP PORT : 587
I am not sure whether your issue has been resolved. But posting for other users' reference.
You need to set the app password to use Gmail SMTP. You have to enable two-step verification to enable the app password as below. In addition to that, the SMTP server for Gmail would be-smtp.gmail.com
.
If still, you are not getting emails then you can test the python script(from head node) here
and test the below:
Ssh to head node
Then edit the file -Sudo vi /etc/ambari-server/conf/log4j.properties
Modify - log4j.logger.alerts=INFO,alerts to log4j.logger.alerts=DEBUG,alerts
Add below line to Alerts section -
log4j.logger.org.apache.ambari.server.notifications.dispatchers=DEBUG,alerts
Save the file and restart ambari server service using usr/lib/hdinsight-common/scripts/restart_ambari_server.sh
Try to stop zookeeper on any one of the node and check for the ambari-server.log and amabri-alerts.log.
In /var/log/ambari-server, check ambari-alerts.log and ambari-server.log after an alert was fired.
I want to use Mercury Mail as a mail server in a local network. I managed to set up everything and I am able to send mails from one client to another in this local network via the Mercury Mail server (part of Xampp) on Windows 7. The whole environment is set up locally, i.e. communication is only between local users and not with the outside world (internet).
What I want now: When a local user sends a mail to another local user, I want them to SMTP authenticate first. From Mercury Mail Admin Panel SMTP Server, I don't see such option. Could you point me to the documentation or guide me on how to do it? Thanks a lot.
I've set up Mavericks and OSX Server and have gotten Xcode bots up and running. There's a notification setting on each bot that allows you to email all committers on success or on failure. I've enabled that option and added an additional email address to test.
I can't seem to figure where to configure the email settings (i.e. smtp server, login, password). I've tried enabling Mail on OSX Server and set it to relay outgoing email through ISP, but that didn't seem to help.
Any guidance would be appreciated.
In order for emails to be sent out, all you have to do is set up postfix on your OSX machine.
Here's 2 guides I used when setting it up:
http://benjaminrojas.net/configuring-postfix-to-send-mail-from-mac-os-x-mountain-lion/
http://slashusr.wordpress.com/2012/02/14/enabling-postfix-for-outbound-relay-via-gmail-on-os-x-lion-11/
Afterwards, the emails got sent out without any issues.
These instructions are specific to the use case of a Xcode server running on a host not previously set up as a server.
Xcode Server runs as a system user and does not have access to user email settings.
When it generates emails, it uses the hostname and domain of the system and queues the email for delivery. Typically, unless the system has been set up as a server, the email goes nowhere from an email address unacceptable to ISPs and other mail providers.
OS X Server on Mavericks comes with a Mail server.
The following step set up the Mail server to relay all system mail to a mail service provider modifying the "From" address to a fixed name.
Step 1:
Use the "Server" application and examine the server configuration by clicking on your computer in the server section. Record the "Host Name:".
Step 2:
In /Library/Server/Mail/Config/postfix
Add to the file main.cf:
smtp_generic_map = hash:/Library/Server/Mail/Config/generic
Create a file generic:
#<host name> <user name>#<domain name>
Where <host name> is the host name recorded above and <user name>#<domain name> is the email address you want as the source of all emails from this host.
Step 3:
Using the "Server" application, set the email relay in Services>Mail.
Check Relay outgoing mail through ISP.
Click edit to set the parameters.
Step 4:
Turn on the mail server.
Step 5:
Test from terminal:
bash$ mail xxxx#xxxxx
Subject: Test
Test
.
bash$
Without any changes, email notifications stopped being sent from our continuous integration server which is a Teamcity 7.1 server. Up to now I've just used the default teamcity email configuration, which was this:
SMTP host: mail
SMTP port: 25
Send email messages from: Teamcity
SMTP login: <blank>
SMTP password: <blank>
Secure connection: none
Worked fine for last year or so. Now I'm trying to diagnose what is wrong, but I don't really know what the above configuration is doing... Is it pointing to a built-in mail server that is bundled with Teamcity? Is it pointing to the company's exchange server? Something else?
Teamcity does not have any bundled mail servers. This configuration point to your company's SMTP server. By occasion, SMTP server's name is 'mail'. So TC tries to connect to mail:25 and send messages 'from' 'Teamcity'
Please check if SMTP server's authentication settings were modified (e.g., anonymous access is now forbidden). Also please check 'teamcity-server.log' for error messages related to sending notifications.
I find a lot of details on the internet how to configure Oracle database to use PL/SQL commands to send an email from the database, but they're all using the SMTP server that the database is installed in (I think at least). If these emails are being sent to DBAs, then that's fine.
What about the scenario where an email is sent to customers? In this case wouldn't we want the email to be sent from an application server (e.g. DMZ), and NOT the database server?
I'm assuming the IP address of the database server (or other special information regarding the database server that we'd rather keep private) would be available in such an email. If this isn't true, my question has no merit.
Is it possible to generate an email from the database PL/SQL command(s) but have it sent to the customer from a proxy (e.g. application) server? So the email traffic route would be: database server --> application server --> customer. The added benefit is most email systems would be on the application server anyway so returned emails would go the application server.
If you're using UTL_SMTP, your code will have a line like this somewhere:
c := UTL_SMTP.open_connection( 'myhost', 25 );
The first parameter is the mail server. You should be able to set it to any server that your database server can connect to (via port 25).
They're not necessarily using the SMTP server that the "database is installed in" (not really sure what you mean by that). You define the system parameter SMTP_OUT_SERVER to configure the IP and port of the SMTP server. Oracle will send email to whatever server you define, as long as it is network accessible.
See this site for more information on setting up UTL_MAIL. Try it out. Look at the headers. See for yourself what it looks like.
