application.yml
mail:
host: "smtp.gmail.com"
port: 465
username: "***#gmail.com"
password: "***"
props:
mail.smtp.auth: "true"
mail.smtp.socketFactory.port: "465"
mail.smtp.socketFactory.class: "javax.net.ssl.SSLSocketFactory"
mail.smtp.socketFactory.fallback: "true"
build.gradle
runtime "org.grails.plugins:mail:2.0.0.RC4"
I have tried also with:
runtime "org.grails.plugins:mail:2.0.0"
runtime "org.grails.plugins:mail:2.0.0.RC6"
and also does not work.
UserController.groovy
package grailsproject
class UserController {
def mailService
def form() {
}
def save() {
def user = new Userr(params)
user.validate()
if(user.hasErrors())
{
user.errors.allErrors.each {
println it
}
render (view:"/registrationForm/registrationForm", model: [user: user]);
}else
{
user.save(flush: true)
render(view: "user", model: [user: user]);
}
mailService.sendMail{
to "***#gmail.com"
from "***#gmail.com"
subject "This is a test mail"
body "Hello, This is a test mail, how are you?"
}
}
}
I do not have idea, what else should I check...
I am also wondering why it try to connect localhost when I gave there gmail host?

Answer 1

Your application.yml should be
grails:
mail:
host: "smtp.gmail.com"
port: 465
username: "your_mail#gmail.com"
password: "Your_password"
props:
mail.smtp.auth: "true"
mail.smtp.socketFactory.port: "465"
mail.smtp.socketFactory.class: "javax.net.ssl.SSLSocketFactory"
mail.smtp.socketFactory.fallback: "false"
build.gradle wiil be
compile "org.grails.plugins:mail:2.0.0.RC6"
UserController.groovy should be
package grailsproject
class UserController {
def index() { }
def send() {
def multipartFile = request.getFile('attachment')
sendMail {
multipart true
to params.address
subject params.subject
html params.body
if(multipartFile && !multipartFile.empty) {
File tmpFile = new File(System.getProperty("java.io.tmpdir") + System.getProperty("file.separator") + multipartFile.getOriginalFilename());
multipartFile.transferTo(tmpFile);
attach tmpFile
}
}
flash.message = "Email Sent Successfully"
redirect action:"index"
}
}
