Hi All,

I encountered with following error when i try to send e-mail in production mode.

Errno::ECONNREFUSED (Connection refused - connect(2)):     /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/net/protocol.rb:206:in `initialize'     /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/net/protocol.rb:206:in `new'     /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/net/protocol.rb:206:in `old_open'     /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/timeout.rb:62:in `timeout'     /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/timeout.rb:93:in `timeout'     /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/net/protocol.rb:206:in `old_open'     /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/net/smtp.rb:392:in `do_start'     /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/net/smtp.rb:377:in `start'     /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/net/smtp.rb:315:in `start'     /vendor/rails/actionmailer/lib/action_mailer/base.rb:586:in `perform_delivery_smtp'     /vendor/rails/actionmailer/lib/action_mailer/base.rb:469:in `__send__'     /vendor/rails/actionmailer/lib/action_mailer/base.rb:469:in `deliver!'     /vendor/rails/actionmailer/lib/action_mailer/base.rb:383:in `deliver'     /app/controllers/login_controller.rb:88:in `create'     /vendor/rails/actionpack/lib/action_controller/base.rb:1158:in `send'     /vendor/rails/actionpack/lib/action_controller/base.rb:1158:in `perform_action_without_filters'     /vendor/rails/actionpack/lib/action_controller/filters.rb:697:in `call_filters'     /vendor/rails/actionpack/lib/action_controller/filters.rb:689:in `perform_action_without_benchmark'     /vendor/rails/actionpack/lib/action_controller/benchmarking.rb:68:in `perform_action_without_rescue'     /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/benchmark.rb:293:in `measure'     /vendor/rails/actionpack/lib/action_controller/benchmarking.rb:68:in `perform_action_without_rescue'

i use following credentials in config/enviorment.rb

config.action_mailer.smtp_settings = {     :address => "smtpout.secureserver.net",     :port => 25,     :domain => "xyz.com",     :authentication => :login,     :user_name => "abc@xyz.com",     :password => password here   }

2

It's done.

i change two things

1] in enviorment.rb ActionMailer::Base.delivery_method = :smtp

to

ActionMailer::Base.delivery_method = :sendmail

and

2] in config\environments\production.rb

uncomment following line

config.action_mailer.raise_delivery_errors = false
