Sending mail with swiftmailer via OVH mail

Question

I want to send confirmation email to users. I did install swiftmailer with composer and these are my configuration in parameters. yml and config.yml

parameters:
database_host: 127.0.0.1
database_port: null
database_name: xxxx
database_user: root
database_password: root
mailer_transport: smtp
mailer_host: 127.0.0.1
mailer_user: xxxxx@xxxxxx.com
mailer_password: xxxx
secret: ea293ee3152cb8522e591a6cb821f950cc67f499
spool:
        type:                 file

mailer_port: 587
mailer_encryption: tls
mailer_logging: '%kernel.debug%'

config.yml

swiftmailer:
transport: '%mailer_transport%'
host: '%mailer_host%'
username: '%mailer_user%'
password: '%mailer_password%'
spool: { type: memory }

I added this code to my controller and I tested but nothing sent:

    $message = \Swift_Message::newInstance()
                ->setSubject('hello')
                ->setFrom('example@gmail.com')
                ->setTo('xx.xx@xxx.tn')
                ->setBody('@servicom/pages/profile_commercial.html.twig', 'text/html');

# Send the message
            $this->get('mailer')
                ->send($message);

I want to ask if the problem is from the configuration or from the code.

Thanks in advance.

See if you need some other parameters like encryption (typicaly tls) or port (generaly 587).

i add this parameters in parameters.yml or in config.yml or config_dev.yml ? – Malek Zarkouna Aug 11 '17 at 14:48

in parameters.yml, you set the variables (variable_name: value) and in config.yml you link your variables (parameter: "%variable_name%"), to one of these parameters. – Kall Drogo Aug 11 '17 at 14:51
i changed parameters but still nothing sent – Malek Zarkouna Aug 11 '17 at 15:02

That was the way I resolve the same problem. Are you sure of your OVH configuration ? Otherwise, I don't know, sorry... – Kall Drogo Aug 11 '17 at 15:09

I follow the OVH instructions : https://docs.ovh.com/fr/fr/web/emails/mail-mutualise-guide-configuration-dun-e-mail-mutualise-ovh-sur-linterface-de-gmail/, I'm looking for an english version, I'll come back when I get it – Kall Drogo Aug 11 '17 at 15:15
Well done ! So it was not only aditional parameters as I thought. For the smtp_port, I had it on my parameters.yml if I remember well, it's not necesseraly in your send method. But if it works, it's not important... Good job. – Kall Drogo Aug 15 '17 at 21:33

Finally i fixed the issue by debugging first then adding the ini_set() so i share this solution : Parameters.yml :

parameters:
    database_host: 127.0.0.1
    database_port: null
    database_name: xxxxx
    database_user: root
    database_password: root
    mailer_transport: smtp
    mailer_host: ssl0.ovh.net
    mailer_user: xxxx@myhost.com
    mailer_password: toguess
    encryption: ssl
    auth_mode: login
    secret: xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Add this to the function send :

 ini_set('SMTP','ssl0.ovh.net');
 ini_set('smtp_port',587);

And this for the Debug :

if ( $this->get('mailer')->send($message)) {
                echo '[SWIFTMAILER] sent email to ' . 'malek.zarkouna@esprit.tn';
                echo '' . $mailLogger->dump();
            } else {
                echo '[SWIFTMAILER] not sending email: ' . $mailLogger->dump();
            }
