So, I have a phpBB forum on CentOS 6, however there is a problem. E-mails are simply not working.
I tried using e-mails on domain such as admin#domain.com, and I would get this error:
E-mail error
» EMAIL/PHP/mail()
/adm/index.php
so I trued using SMTP with different SMTP hosts and settings, nothing has worked, I would simply get this error:
E-mail error
» EMAIL/SMTP
/adm/index.php
Could not connect to smtp host : 0 : php_network_getaddresses: getaddrinfo failed: Temporary failure in name resolution
Errno 2: fsockopen(): php_network_getaddresses: getaddrinfo failed: Temporary failure in name resolution at [ROOT]/includes/functions_messenger.php line 1030<br />
Errno 2: fsockopen(): unable to connect to smtp.mail.com:25 (php_network_getaddresses: getaddrinfo failed: Temporary failure in name resolution) at [ROOT]/includes/functions_messenger.php line 1030
I got the errors from PHP Error Log from PHP
Oddly enough, the e-mails appear on my VPS in var/spool/mail/root file.
2 people have told be that this may be a DNS issue, I suspect this being true, as I, for some reason, couldn't use "wget" on my VPS, so I set Nameservers in /etc/resolv.conf and suddenly another problem I was experiencing, "could not get latest phpBB version" or something like that, was fixed. So, if that was fixed with such a solution, I would assume this would have something to do with it too.
And, I asked my host about it, they said "everything is virtualized" and how they have no actual control over it (in a sense that it is their configuration's fault) and how they do not support 3rd party software, even though this is not a software issue. And prior to that they said that they talked to "level 3 Linux admin" and how the admin said it is PHP/Apache issue.
I am losing my mind over this. It is a good machine for a good price with a game panel as we are hosting a game server, and it would really be a bother to move it all elsewhere.
Also, full talk and information on phpBB forums can be found here:
https://www.phpbb.com/community/viewtopic.php?f=46&t=2257586
Check your SMTP settings, make sure its set to the correct client (both on your DNS and within phpbb in General-Client Communication-Email Settings). If you have to use an authenticated account, verify that the username and password you are using is correct by typing it into a word doc to see spelling and copy/pasting it into the fields. In some cases, SMTP will only work with authenticated accounts.

I have a BizTalk 2013r2 Standard Edition application server with CU7 installed. The BizTalk databases are hosted on a separate Sql Server 2014 server. This setup has been working fine for many months - until today! A colleague used the BizTalk admin console to make a change to the address BizTalk uses to the reach the SMTP server, by selecting Platform Settings\Adapters\SMTP\\properties.
After making this change, on attempting to refresh the BizTalk Admin Console, the following error is displayed:
From what I've googled, it seems this may be due to some corruption in the SSO database. I have a backup of the SSO database, and a backup of the SSO key along with the password. Before restoring the backup of the SSO database, I wanted to check that I would be able to restore the key, so I ran ssoconfig -restoreSecret from the command line. I was prompted to enter the password. If I intentionally enter the wrong password then it tells me the password is incorrect. However, if I enter the correct password then it displays the message "BAD DATA".
Although the BizTalk admin console is currently unusable, thankfully the BizTalk host instance continue to run and messages are being processed as expected.
Can anyone please suggest why I'm getting the "BAD DATA" message, or perhaps a work-around in order to solve the problem?
I had this problem again and blogged about it at BizTalk WinMgt error solution. As Colin says the hard part is identifying the corrupt handler. It is probably the SMTP send handler but you should check this using WBEMTEST first. I found this link helpful on using WBEMTest. The parameter is incorrect (WinMgt)" error when refreshing the BizTalk Group in BizTalk Administration Console
In my case a quick fix to bring the BizTalk Administration Console back to life was to hack the database. N.B. This probably won't be supported by MS. In my case it was the FTP send handler that screwed up. So I ran
USE [BizTalkMgmtDb]
GO
DECLARE #return_value int
EXEC #return_value = [dbo].[adm_SendHandler2_Delete]
#AdapterName = N'FTP',
#HostName = N'Sending32'
SELECT 'Return Value' = #return_value
GO
At this point the BizTalk Administration console came back to life. In my case it worked because I was creating a new handler but in your case you just edited it. It will take all your SMTP handling out.
I then fixed the corruption using the BizTalk Administration console.
In my case I had to set every FTP receive and send adapter temporarily to a FILE adapter.
I then deleted the FTP adapter and then re-added it. Finally I reset the all the change receive and send location from FILE back to FTP.
This was all very scary on a live system.
Finally I believe that this is bug in BizTalk 2013 R2 because I've seen it happen on 2 systems and now I have heard that the same thing happened to you.
The WinMgt error happens when one of the Adapters setting has gotten itself corrupted. See WinMgt error when refreshing Group Hub
Removing and re-adding the adapter to the host usually fixes it. The trick of course is identifying which Adapter / Host, I would start with the SMTP adapter in your case.
I'm trying to deploy an application via web deploy to a windows 2012 r2 server.
First tried installing iis, web deploy using the msi. After getting an unreachable error I saw somewhere that I needed wmsvc to be installed and installed it via powershell command Install-WindowsFeature Web-Mgmt-Service.
I stopped getting the unreachable error and started getting this error ->
Error: Could not complete the request to remote agent URL 'http://xx.x.xx.xx:8172/MSDEPLOYAGENTSERVICE'.
Error: The operation has timed out
On the server's event viewer under system I get the following error ->
A fatal alert was generated and sent to the remote endpoint. This may result in termination of the connection. The TLS protocol defined fatal error code is 10. The Windows SChannel error state is 1203.
Any idea of what could be going on? Did I miss something on the installation?
After this I also tried installing everything but without iis and I get the same error.
So, this is really not a PoSH issue.
Maybe you should consider movin gthis question to another forum.
Anyway, you have either real server config issues (this can sometimes mean wipe and rebuild - very ugly option - but if it's a virtual machine and you have a snapshot, just roll back), or an app causing this.
Typically for Schannel type of error, it has to do with application or service in machine not able to complete any SSL connection sort of connection.
The error state parameter of 1203 means client error connecting to server, ie invalid ClientHello from the client
See if you can collect more data by...
https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/260729/how-to-enable-schannel-event-logging-in-iis
I realized this is an old question, but in case somebody ran into the same issue, here are my solution.
I had to follow this guidelines : https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/aspnet/web-forms/overview/deployment/configuring-server-environments-for-web-deployment/configuring-a-web-server-for-web-deploy-publishing-web-deploy-handler
Copy the resulting publishsetting file. In the Publish/Profile page import it.
In the Publish/Connection page, change the server to the server address with the 8172 port. Add the password. Change the Destination URL to the site to go to after the publish is completed.
Then after Validate connection was completed, go ahead and publish it!
I can't figure this one out. I can't connect to a server using MySQL Workbench, I tried any kind of connection methods. The error message I get is
Failed to Connect to MySQL at AT 127.0.0.1:3306 with user root
Invalid for this platform protocol requested(MYSQL_PROTOCOL_SOCKET)
I ran into the same problem, in my case I originally created the connection with the "Local Socket/Pipe" option selected in the "Connection Method" drop down. Trying to switch back to "Standard (TCP/IP)" did not work and caused the error mentioned by OP. I had to delete the connection and start over by selection "Standard (TCP/IP)" from the start. The connection was successful after that.
To solve this problem you must check the "Others" field in Advanced tab
If you had the connection stored with a socket option you will find a "socket=." (or anything similar)
Delete it
e.g. http://prntscr.com/k63pua
This is a very unusal error message which I haven't seen before, especially on Windows. It has probably to do with how the server is installed. As a newbie it would definitely be the best choice to use the Windows Installer for all required parts. This will install the server properly too.
By using xampp you are on your own to check whether a server is installed and running as a service, as well as the proper configuration. For troubleshooting watch my video on Youtube where I tried to explain most common pitfalls for beginners.
Note: you can open the connection without actually being connected. In that case MySQL Workbench allows to do all those things that don't require a valid server connection, e.g. log file viewing, config file editing, service start/stop etc. Use this to check your server's configuration. Make sure it accepts TCP/IP connections (there's also a short section in the video about this).
Update:
Downvoter, please add a comment why you think my answer is bad.
Re-reading the error message I got another idea: could it be that you used local socket/named pipe for the connection? If so try with normal TCP/IP.
Sorry if this is the wrong exchange.
Ok I have had my DotNetNuke website up for awhile now but no man users signing up. After speaking to one users it seems that my skin was a little poor in terms of logging in/registering as rather than the usual 2 buttons my skin just had a '+'
Anyway I changed my skin so I now have a clear 'Login' and 'Register' button. Over 24 hours or so I suddenly had a load of new users (40+). Checking my email inbox I seem to have quite a few Delivery errors for most of these users with errors like so.
Failed Recipient: #gmail.com
Reason: Remote host said: 550 5.1.1 The email account that you tried to reach does not exist. Please try

and another

this one says fake account???
Failed Recipient: #yahoo.com
Reason: Remote host said: 554 delivery error: dd This user doesn't have a yahoo.com account (#yahoo.com) [0] - mta1153.mail.gq1.yahoo.com
Obviously I have removed the start of the email address for posting here.
So my question is what is the cause of these errors?
Is it DNN and some settings?
Is it my mail server? - using SmarterMail
Are they just fake accounts?
If they are fake accounts is there anyway I can better prevent them?
There has been a recent exploit by spammers who figured out how to script automated registrations on DNN websites. I was getting 20-40 of these per day on my DNN sites also. There is a way to address this. Follow the steps described in the following articles:

i'm trying to create a contact form,with a code from a website,but when i open it with localhost,it give me an error:
Warning: mail(): Failed to connect to mailserver at "localhost" port 25, verify your "SMTP" and "smtp_port" setting in php.ini or use ini_set() in D:\programe\wamp\www\website\trimite.php on line 41
Well,this is the line 41:
mail($catre, $subiect, $mesaj, $headere);
It is anything wrong? Maybe it's because i need a database,or i dont know,im not really good at this.
Probably this is way too old, but since I have an easy fix (I guess) I will give it a shot:
If you only want to try the code (mail function) and see if the email is actually sent, in your dev environment, you can try to accomplish that with this small tool: http://www.toolheap.com/test-mail-server-tool/
I used it several times in the past when I had no proper smtp mail server configuration available and I had to test in a few seconds that my code was behaving properly.
I hope it helps.
