I'm having a problem with ActionMailer on Rails 2.0.2.
app/config/environment.yml
I appreciate your reply. I moved it out of the block, and it gave me the same error. I also moved it to my environment/development.yml file and it still did not work. I do see what you're saying though, that it's trying to call it before it's initialized. Is there any other place I could put it that would ensure that it gets called after it has initialized ActionMailer?
Thanks
I made sure the line was commented out, as it was by default.
Thanks for your help
I'm having the same issue, trying to setup mail first time. Do you have any solution yet ?
Here is my stacktrace,
C:/projects/Sample/config/environments/development.rb:23:in `load_environment': undefined local variable or method `smtp' for #<Rails::Initializer:0x2b01740> (NameError)
from C:/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rails-2.0.2/lib/ initializer.rb:206:in `load_environment'
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks.
Hi guys,
In Rails 2.0 you should put configuration into their own specific files in the initializers/ directory. Create a action_mailer.rb file in initializers/ and then specify your ActionMailer settings within. Rails 2.0 loads all files found in the initializers/ directory when the framework initializes.
By the way, if you are sending your mail from an smtp host other than your deploy machine, specify the settings as follows:
ActionMailer::Base.delivery_method = :smtp ActionMailer::Base.server_settings = { :address => “my.server.address.com”, # => EXTERNAL SMTP HOST :port => 25, :domain => “my.server.domain.com”, :authentication => :login, :user_name => “test_mailer@my.server.domain.com”, :password => “my_password” }
But if your deploy machine is doing the smtp work then make sure you specify localhost as the address, like so:
ActionMailer::Base.delivery_method = :smtp ActionMailer::Base.server_settings = { :address => “localhost”, # => HERE :port => 25, :domain => “my.server.domain.com”, :authentication => :login, :user_name => “test_mailer@my.server.domain.com”, :password => “my_password” }
Hopefully this may solve your ActionMailer woes…

I have put the ActionMailer settings code in the end of config/environment.rb file. I am in Forget password option and want to mail user's credentials to his mail address but when i click the button, it shows me the following error and mail is not sent:

Storing passwords as plaintext is bad. Reset the password to something you know and send out, or, better yet, generate a one-time link to send off to the user, together with another type of authentication that was set, like providing the answer to a user-defined question.
Email is not safe enough to send passwords, and it is incredibly lax of you/your team to store passwords unencrypted.

Hey passwords are stored in encrypted form using
Digest::SHA1.hexdigest("--#{salt}--#{password}--")
but i want the way how i can decrypt it and also want your help in sending a mail. i have posted the error which was there. please send me reply of that too, thanks.

A hash is one way. There is no way to recreate a hash, especially not one that is salted.

Thanks for the info.. after i paste the code outside of the block, it worked for me.
