Newbie: Java Mail Problem

Discussion:

I've just set up Tomcat 4.1.18 on my Windows XP Home PC. I installed
it as a service. I have no problem connecting to the Tomcat main web
page. I reconfigured conf/server.xml and changed to value of
mail.smtp.host to "smtp.verizon.net", my isp mail server. However,
when I go to run the jsp send mail example, I get the following
exception. Can anyone help on this?

David, u might call or label yourself a "Newbie", but you got me beat on being
able to connect Tomcat to the Apache Server!! How the hell do you do it?!!
Incidentally, I have the version 4.1.16 of tomcat, and the version 2.04* of the
Apache HTTP server FYI!

In/localhost:8080/examples/jsp/mail/sendmail.txt

it notes that the assumption is that no user authentication is required.
Is it reasonable to assume that verizon.net will expect user authentication?

<p>This page will send an electronic mail message via the

the JNDI context for this web application. Before it can be used
successfully, you must take note of the following:</p>

<li>The default configuration assumes that there is an SMTP server running
on <strong>localhost</strong>. If this is not the case, edit your
<code>conf/server.xml</code> file and change the value for the
<code>mail.smtp.host</code> parameter to the name of a host that provides
SMTP service for your network.</li>
<li>The application logic assumes that no user authentication is required
by your SMTP server before accepting mail messages to be sent.</li>

From the error, looks like it's still trying to connect to an smtp
server at localhost. Did you restart Tomcat after changing mail.smtp.host?

David,
A troubleshooting idea. I'd isolate this problem by ensuring you
can communicate directly via javamail. Try a simple test such as this
(in a JSP will work fine)...

String host = "smtp.verizon.net";
String from = "***@verizon.net";
String to = "***@verizon.net";

// Get system properties
Properties props = System.getProperties();

// Setup mail server
props.put("mail.smtp.host", host);

// Get session
Session mailsession = Session.getDefaultInstance(props, null);

// Define message
MimeMessage message = new MimeMessage(mailsession);

// Set the from address
message.setFrom(new InternetAddress(from));

// Set the to address
message.addRecipient(Message.RecipientType.TO, new InternetAddress(to));

// Set the subject
message.setSubject("Test message");

// Set the content
message.setText("Testing");

// Send message
Transport.send(message);

If this works.. then I'd suspect something in TC or your config. If it
doesn't.. you might want to post this info. to the javamail list. Lots
of helpful people over there.

Good luck,
Shawn.

David-

It looks like something strange is happening with your configuration. I am
not familiar with the example that you are talking about, but if you look at
the exception, it looks like it is trying to connect to port 25 (smtp) of
localhost, and not your verizon SMTP server. Localhost normally resolves to
your own machine (your XP box in this case), and I doubt you have an SMTP
server running there, and thus the connection failure.

Perhaps there is another location you must use to specify the verizon
server? On a related note, be prepared to potentially have problems once
you have the example pointed to the right server. Not all servers allow
"ad-hoc" connections to their SMTP server. If you find yourself in this
boat (it pointing to verizon but still getting connection failures) let me
know and I can try to step you through debugging SMTP connectivity errors.

Parker,

Hi. What a surprise to get a reply from someone I actually know. I
"solved" the problem, but I forgot to notify the list. It turned out
that Tomcat wasn't actually shut down and restarted properly. Now, it
works fine. Have a happy New Year!

I resolved the problem. It turns out that I had not really stopped and
restarted the Tomcat service after reconfiguring server.xml, even though
I thought I had. Now, it works fine. Thanks everyone!

On that note, if you're using Windows 2000 and XP Professional, you can
simply install a SMTP service on your computer. It's part of IIS, though,
which means you'll have to install that if you haven't already.

If you want to see if you have it installed, goto Start->Control
Panel->Administrative Tools. If you have it installed, you should see a
shortcut there that says "Internet Information Services". Open that up, and
you can configure both IIS and any of it's related services, including SMTP.

If you don't have it installed, and want to install it, goto Start->Control
Panel->Add or Remove Programs and click on "Add/Remove Windows Components".
You'll be shown a list of things that you can install, one of which is IIS.

Might be overkill, though, and if you do install it or have it running, you
want to make EXTRA sure your computer isn't visible to the outside world on
port 25. You can configure the SMTP service to deny connections from
anything but localhost, for example.

Can anyone suggest what's wrong? As a relative newbie, I've been
modifying and using the example build.xml file provided with the
tomcat-docs. I am using it from Intellij IDEA. It's working fine,
except I can't get the install target to work. The catalina-ant.jar
file has been added to the Build File Properties Additional Classpath in
IDEA's Ant Dialog.

I am getting a http 401 authentication error. I have provided a
build.properties file in the top level directory and Ant seems to find
it ok.

I see the message: "Loading c:\Projects\BookClubEmail\build.properties"

Here's the build.properties file:

manager.password="lydlyd"
manager.username="diskind"

Here's the text version of the ANT IDEA Message Window:

Did you update conf/web.xml to add a manager username/password/role?

401 means unathorized access to a password protected page
