I have installed Roundcube webmail in my WAMPSERVER and I can access my emails via localhost/roundcube url, But I can not send email via my roundcube. I get the alert with the following error. SMTP Error (-1): Connection to server failed
I am sure there will be a solution. please help me
I got the answer I tried many ways but could not succeeded, Finally I opened my wamp/roundcubemail/config/defaults.inc.php and modified the following config value: $config['smtp_port'] = 465;
it is useful for any one who has installed roundcube into WampSever in windows and can not send email.
Make sure of the following:
SMTP port
default is 25
use 587 for STARTTLS
465 for the deprecated SSL over SMTP
I had the same issue and tried everything I could find, only to figure I was editing the wrong configuration file : the changes in config/default.inc.php didn't help because I had to edit config/config.inc.php instead. It worked once I updated $config['smtp_port'] to the right port (depends on your mail server configuration) in the right file.
FWIW, here is a procedure which might help debugging (it surely did for me, showing that my changes weren't taken into account) : in program/lib/Roundcube/rcube_smtp.php, replace the following line (line 134 in Roundcube 1.4.7)
$this->response[] = "Connection failed: " . $result->getMessage();
by
$this->response[] = "Connection failed: " . implode(", ", $CONFIG);
(check about 70 lines above to find the definition of the fields), then restart the Apache server, try to send an email and check logs/errors.log.
For the sake of SEO, here is the generic error that was shown in logs/errors.log :
PHP Error: Invalid response code received from server (POST /roundcube/?_task=mail&_unlock=loading1613339144872&_framed=1&_lang=en_US&_action=send) SMTP Error: Connection failed: Invalid response code received from server (POST /roundcube/?_task=mail&_unlock=loading1613339144872&_framed=1&_lang=en_US&_action=send)
Furthermore, after this correction I couldn't connect back after logout, I had to configure $config['default_port'] = 143 for IMAP. For debugging one can use the same trick as above in file program/lib/Roundcube/rcube_imap.php, line 200 (beware that $config is lowcase in this file).
