SOLVED Error sending email notification for work item change


Seth Packham (1.4k42213) | asked Dec 19 '07, 1:17 p.m.

I've got email notifications working (it sent invitations to join team), but notification aren't going out for work item changes.

My server console shows this:

ERROR com.ibm.team.workitem
- Following required properties are undefined or empty:
- notification.mail.from
- notification.mail.from_name
- notificaiton.mail.reply

Did I miss a step in setting up my smtp server in Web UI admin configuration? I'm using my IBM Notes mail server with no authentication.

Hi,

Did you enable email notification in your jazz configuration ?

You can view your configuration using
https://{server-name}:9443/jazz/admin#action=com.ibm.team.repository.admin.configurationProperties

The properties required for sending mail notifications are :

com.ibm.team.repository.service.internal.MailerService
Enable Mail Notification : should be set to true
Restrict to Whitelist : false
SMPT Server, SMTP Server Port and SMTP user name

The properties defined in configuration properties are stored in
teamserver.properties text file.

--SOLVED--

Thanks to Matt Jarvis for pointing out that I needed to add the properties to teamserver.properties, like this:

com.ibm.team.workitem.notification.mail.from=jazz@example.com
com.ibm.team.workitem.notification.mail.from_name=Jazz
com.ibm.team.workitem.notification.mail.reply=jazz@example.com

*He hinted that the admin Web UI might support these values in a future milestone.*
