I'm trying to get into the IMAP server with OAuth, using the PHP Sample Code provided by Google which uses the Zend Imap class but I am failing to authenticate. Zend is giving me the error:
Zend_Mail_Storage_Exception [ Error ]: cannot select INBOX, is this a valid transport?
Annoyingly this is a rather confusing error message, for what is essentially "Invalid Credentials". How did I know that? By debugging the actual commands being send to the IMAP socket I see this:
string(44) "NO Invalid credentials ey9if1544983wid.142
"
I have tried with telnet and a Ruby gmail_xoauth gem which suggests it is not a code issue, but something else.
Looking at the most basic level of all this, I am getting commands like this:
TAG1 AUTHENTICATE XOAUTH R0VUIGh0dHBzOi8vbWFpbC5nb29nbGUuY29tL21h......etc
This is where I get NO Invalid credentials then:
TAG2 SELECT "INBOX"
This returns BAD Unknown command and kicks me out.
I have tried searching around for people having the same problem but I find only questions and no answers. There are a few similar StackOverflow questions:
One post shows somebody having the exact same problem in Python.
This post shows somebody trying to be awkward and do it with OAuth 2, with no report of success.
There is a thread on the GMail Google Group that suggests an "Invalid Credentials" error can be resolved by going to https://accounts.google.com/DisplayUnlockCaptcha for GMail accounts and https://www.google.com/a/[YOURDOMAIN.COM]/UnlockCaptcha if you are using Google Apps, but the latter just said that my username and password were wrong when they clearly were not. Using this https://accounts.google.com/DisplayUnlockCaptcha worked fine - even though my account is a hosted App, not plain old GMail - however I still get the same errors when trying to log back in with the PHP sample code provided by Google.
I've tried with various hosted Google App accounts and a plain GMail account. I've tried switching the IMAP server from imap.gmail.com to imap.googlemail.com, nothing makes any difference.
/**
* Make the IMAP connection and send the auth request
*/
$imap = new Zend_Mail_Protocol_Imap('imap.googlemail.com', '993', true);
$authenticateParams = array('XOAUTH', $initClientRequestEncoded);
$imap->requestAndResponse('AUTHENTICATE', $authenticateParams);
/**
* Print the INBOX message count and the subject of all messages
* in the INBOX
*/
$storage = new Zend_Mail_Storage_Imap($imap);
echo '<h1>Total messages: ' . $storage->countMessages() . "</h1>\n";
For those with an interest, this is the specific PHP code that sets up the connection, all XOauth is handled by Google's PHP in the same file but I skipped it.
I had this exact same error, and eventually realised I was using the wrong scope when requesting the OAuth permissions.
You need to have...
scope=https://mail.google.com/
access_type=offline
And also IMAP enabled in your Gmail account obviously. All seems good now.
One problem you may have is that the third parameter of Zend_Mail_Protocol_Imap('imap.googlemail.com', '993', true); should not be true. It should be a string, as either "SSL" or "TLS". I believe you want "SSL" if going over port 993. It's only a boolean when it is FALSE.
Try replacing that first line with this:
$imap = new Zend_Mail_Protocol_Imap('imap.googlemail.com', '993', 'SSL');
When i had this same error message, it was because
$options['consumerSecret'] = $THREE_LEGGED_CONSUMER_SECRET_HMAC;
I was doing that in a function and variable $THREE_LEGGED... wasn't in the scope. Pretty stupid and i'm sure that you'd have spotted that but just in case somebody new is reading that.

i'm trying to make a custom email configuration in the service provider, and when trying to send an email i got this error Argument 1 passed to Illuminate\Mail\MailManager::getConfig() must be of the type string, null given (src/Illuminate/Mail/MailManager.php on line 108 )
When posting a question like this, you'll get much better responses if you supply more context, for example:
The line of code that is calling getConfig() and the lines that define relevant variables just before that.
According to the documentation, it looks like you need to set the following in your project's .env file:
MAIL_MAILER=smtp
MAIL_HOST=smtp.mailtrap.io
MAIL_PORT=2525
MAIL_USERNAME=
MAIL_PASSWORD=
MAIL_ENCRYPTION=tls
MAIL_FROM_ADDRESS=hello#example.com
MAIL_FROM_NAME="Example app"
Some ideas on the road to fixing it:
I would check everywhere for typos and spelling errors.
Clear the config: php artisan config:clear
Does every environment variable match the server your trying to send through? Note that if you're using a free SMTP server like Gmail you'll need to make many adjustments to your account before you can send... Probably use something like SendGrid if you don't know how to set this up yourself.
I would make sure that you're able to use telnet mail.example.com 587 and get a HELO from the SMTP server.
Try whatever other steps you can think of for troubleshooting then update your post with more complete information.
Good luck.
I already tried reading the documents as well try out the changing default behaviors https://flask-jwt-extended.readthedocs.io/en/latest/changing_default_behavior.html to handle the error (the link shows how to handle expired token) and search around in google everything in every keyword combination i could do but seems no one has example about this.
I tried using #jwt.revoked_token_loader to handle the RevokedTokenError but it seems it doesn't work as I applied it like this
#jwt.revoked_token_loader
def revoked_token_response(revoked_token):
jwtkn = revoked_token['jti']
return jsonsify({
'msg': 'token {} already been revoked!'.format(jwtkn)
)}, 401
actually, i don't know exactly how does the example on the link to handle expired tokens had parameter of 'expired_token', is that self-declaration like what I did above on the 'revoked_token'?? as far as I know, 'jti' is like a default value in the flask-jwt-extended package as I see error whenever I don't use this (in my db, it is different but there is no problem at all.
I tried following this tutorial and it works out fine on my side (as well his original code source) but I see that this one doesn't have a catch exception also on Revoke Tokens https://codeburst.io/jwt-authorization-in-flask-c63c1acf4eeb
I use postman and if based on the tutorial link, here's how i get this
i do login
i use the access token generated to access protected routes ('/secrets')
i do logout
i use again the access token generated to access protected routes
after the last one, i get this error on my server side (ide):
....flask_jwt_extended\utils.py", line 216, in verify_token_not_blacklisted
raise RevokedTokenError('Token has been revoked')
flask_jwt_extended.exceptions.RevokedTokenError: Token has been revoked
127.0.0.1 -- [02/Jul/2019 22:25:26] "GET /secrets HTTP/1.1" 500 -
in postman, this is what I get:
{
'message': 'Internal Server Error'
}
my target is to send out a custom json response instead of 'Internal Server Error'
edit:
I am no wiz on programming or such, a beginner that wanted to practice out python about secured web development. I don't yet quite understand still how decorator works out in terms of application, etc. so i don't know if others tweaks out the flask-jwt-extended package to work such things out.
Getting back a 500 error normally occurs because of a bug in other flask extensions and how that interact with native flask errorhandlers. You can find a bunch of discussions about it here (https://github.com/vimalloc/flask-jwt-extended/issues/86), but the tl;dr version is you might need to set app.config['PROPAGATE_EXCEPTIONS'] = True if using something like Flask-Restul, or use a hack like this if using flask-restplus:
jwt = JWTManager(app)
api = Api()
jwt._set_error_handler_callbacks(api)
If those don't help you, please take a look through that linked github issue, and if nothing in there helps make a reply in that issue detailing your setup.
Cheers.
Hi I'm using the following code to send email:
public static void sendEmail(String from, String to, String password) {
Email email = new SimpleEmail();
email.setHostName("smtp.googlemail.com");
email.setSmtpPort(465);
email.setAuthenticator(new DefaultAuthenticator(from, password));
email.setSSLOnConnect(true);
email.setSubject("Plain mail");
email.setMsg("test");
email.addTo(to);
email.send();
}
Now, it works when I'm calling this function with my "normal" gmail address:
sendMail("me#gmail.com","friend#gmail.com", "my-password");
So the above works. But when I'm trying to migrate to Gmail for Business, and create an email address "me#mycompany.com" (which is hooked to Gmail), I get an authentication error:
sendMail("me#mycompany.com","friend#gmail.com", "my-new-password");
Gives me this error:
javax.mail.AuthenticationFailedException:
<https://accounts.google.com/ContinueSignIn?sarp=1&scc=1&plt=AKgnsb...ZlTLN2wQG4>
Please log in via your web browser and then try again.
I suspect I need to set something in my Google Apps console, but I'm not even sure where to start looking for the info.
Can anybody help?
Thanks.
This answer is coming from a similar SO question here.
The issue is due to allowing less secure apps to access your account. Click the following link https://www.google.com/settings/security/lesssecureapps and disable security setting. For more information you can read this here.
Good luck!
UPDATE: (2/29/12) Okay, so I've run into this same issue again for a different client on a completely different server and hosting company.
Again, having a script with just mail() sends out the email correctly with no issues. I then added code that is similar to what I have below and hooked it up with paypal IPN. Every time a new payment comes in, the IPN fires, the data gets saved to the db but the mail() function just doesn't work.
However, I ran into an interesting issue. I did a test IPN fire from paypal's sandbox with the same script and the email was sent out.
Is this an issue with paypals production IPN, perhaps the way that it posts data to the script?
Any information here would be extremely helpful since my current solution using cronjobs is sloppy.
END UPDATE
I have my paypal IPN listener configured properly since it writes all the information to the DB when a new payment comes in. Now I'm trying to setup a mail() function that sends me an email alert of a new payment.
I have done this before for another project but I can't for the life of my figure out why it's not working this time. I'm not getting any error's in the error_log and the rest of the script runs fine.
I've tested to make sure that the server actually does send mail with a standalone mail() script. I'm really lost and confused here.
Here's the code that I have:
mail('test#email.com', 'New Order', 'New Order', 'From: support#website.com');
define("_VALID_PHP", true);
require_once('../php/init.php');
$item_number = $_POST['item_number'];
$payment_gross = $_POST['payment_gross'];
$payment_status = $_POST['payment_status'];
$payer_email = $_POST['payer_email'];
$txn_id = $_POST['txn_id'];
if ($payment_status == 'Completed') {
$query = $db->query("SELECT price, id, uid FROM invoice WHERE md5='$item_number'");
$row = $db->fetch($query);
$iid = $row['id'];
$uid = $row['uid'];
if ($row['price'] == $payment_gross){
$invoiceUpdate['paid'] = 1;
$update = $db->update('invoice', $invoiceUpdate, "md5='$item_number'");
}
}
$data['iid'] = $iid;
$data['uid'] = $uid;
$data['payment_status'] = $payment_status;
$data['payer_email'] = $payer_email;
$data['payment_gross'] = $payment_gross;
$data['txn_id'] = $txn_id;
$db->insert('payment', $data);
Since your mail function returns true and your code looks correct, i think you should check the mail log because the problem might not be related to code. Try to send a mail and then check the mail log on the server...once i lost two days trying to figure out a similar problem and in the end the problem was that my mail was not accepted by other servers.
to finde your mail log you can do (from the shell):
updatedb;
locate mail.log
or
locate maillog
this assumes you are using linux, but the problem might as well exists also on windows
The code seems correct to me.
My advice:
Create a new PHP script and test the function there. Does it work?
Attempt PHP SMTP authentication with your mail server and send the email that way. Does it work? (You can use the PEAR Mail Package or any other valid SMTP class.)
If the above also fails then attempt to use the SMTP script with a custom service (e.g GMail) and check if emails are being sent. Here are the GMail SMTP parameters.
If all of the above fail, the problem is definitely with your hosting provider.
how about start off with a call to mail(), then gradually add the code that process $_POST to see when it breaks down? You should have sandbox testing with paypal to make this easier.
On a side note, you should send a verify message to Paypal server to check if the request is actually originated from Paypal, just for security.
Problem isn't in your PHP code, but on server-side. You might have full mail or your provider/your server has problems with SMTP server. Check configuration/Contact provider.
use phpmailer for mail tasks,
http://sourceforge.net/projects/phpmailer/
it will allow you to debug email problems easily.
If you've already tested the mail() function and it sends then I don't think it's anything to do with your mail settings. One word of advice, however, is that you need to be careful with the e-mail addresses you put into the mail() function. A lot of hosting providers nowadays prohibit you from sending e-mails from domains that aren't officially registered (so test#email.com would not work - it needs to be from your domain and it needs to be a valid e-mail address you've set up - it can't be a fake address at your real domain).
If it's still not working, try manually updating the php.ini settings:
<?php ini_set ( sendmail_from, "my_email#my_server.com" ); ?>
Once this is done try putting your mail() at the bottom of the script and feeding one variable to it. So an example might be:
mail('test#email.com', 'New Order', $iid, 'From: support#website.com');
If nothing's being sent, I suggest you re-evaluate your code to see if variables are filtering through your if statements. If all else fails, contact your hosting provider and describe to them your mail problems - it might be a server issue after all. If you're running it on localhost, then that's a different matter entirely (it's quite tricky setting up mail() on a localhost server).
Are you using this code on Windows or on Linux ?
The mail function should execute you must be linking the ipn to a duplicate ipn-handler php file or you did not properly save the changes to the server.
Otherwise it just does not make sense your code is crisp clear and if you send out the mail right on the top it should work.
Now if you are on Windows mail() usually isnt the best choice as Windows lacks default 'sendmail'.
I've same problem like here. But still not able to solve it.
I've followed steps from here. but doing so doesn't sends mail.
The log file says: Mail is sent. but at the other side mail is not received.
Any ideas why?
Check your SMTP settings and make sure you have defined the right settings for your e-mail host. If you are using a sender e-mail other than Gmail then your settings will be different to the ones used in the Railscast.
The file to check is here: config/initializers/setup_mail.rb.
Edit: It still may be possible that the settings you used in jsp may not match perfectly with the 'phrasing' that Rails expects in the setup_mail.rb file. I have frequently come up against this problem where a slight difference in what SMTP settings you mention / don't mention / how they are worded will determine whether the e-mails send/receive or not.
If your logs show the e-mail is sending to a valid e-mail address (and you are not receiving those e-mails in your inbox or spam filter) then the problem, as far as I know, is most likely to be your SMTP. My advice is to check online for the Rails-specific SMTP settings for your e-mail provider, or in the case that you cannot find them, try different combinations until you find the correct one.
Okay the problem is solved. Problem was my file corresponding to action was not at proper place. Here is quick view on how to do it:
Add following to actionmailer:-
def send_mail
attachments['1.pdf'] = File.read('c:/1.pdf')
mail(:to => "harsh#xyz.com", :subject => "xyz", :from=>"harsh#xyz.com")
mail.deliver
end
Notes:- Make sure that the smtp settings are correct and the file corresponding to the action (In this example send_mail.rhtml) is present under appropriate folder.
