XMPP server giving error "No response from server" - xmpp

hi i am using smack.jar to connect to my gmail server. but xmppconnection.connet() is failing and it says that server is not responding . i am attaching the log. please help me out.
Exception in thread "main" Connection failed. No response from server.:

To be clear, the server isn't returning this error, because you haven't connected to the server yet.
It might be a configuration problem. If your server doesn't have a client DNS SRV record (e.g. _xmpp-client._tcp.gmail.com), then you'll need to pass the XMPPConnection object a ConnectionConfiguration with the name of the machine to connect to for your domain.
It is also possible that this is a network problem (connectivity, routing, firewall, etc.). To test for this, try commands like this on the command line:
% dig +short _xmpp-client._tcp.gmail.com SRV
5 0 5222 talk.l.google.com.
20 0 5222 talk2.l.google.com.
20 0 5222 talk1.l.google.com.
20 0 5222 talk3.l.google.com.
20 0 5222 talk4.l.google.com.
% telnet talk.l.google.com 5222
Trying 74.125.155.125...
Connected to talk.l.google.com.
Escape character is '^]'.
>
Note that you type the greater-than character. Most XMPP servers will disconnect you immediately at this point, since you've sent them XML that is not well-formed.
If you've got a network problem, you'll see something like this:
Trying 74.125.155.125...
telnet: connect to address 74.125.155.125: Connection refused
telnet: Unable to connect to remote host

https://dnsflagday.net/ report edns512tcp=timeout

i have a Ubuntu 16.04.5 server with Vesta CP.
I checked the server on https://dnsflagday.net, and I got this report:
domain.cl. #123.456.78.90 (ns1.domain.cl.): dns=ok edns=ok edns1=ok edns#512=ok ednsopt=ok edns1opt=ok do=ok ednsflags=ok docookie=ok edns512tcp=timeout optlist=ok
domain.cl. #123.456.78.90 (ns2.domain.cl.): dns=ok edns=ok edns1=ok edns#512=ok ednsopt=ok edns1opt=ok do=ok ednsflags=ok docookie=ok edns512tcp=timeout optlist=ok
I do not know what edns512tcp = timeout means and I have not had much luck looking for a solution on internet.
Can someone help me? thanks
For that tool, any kind of "timeout" error is a problem, it means some server did not reply or the message (either query or reply) was eaten by some active element on the path, so it needs to be fixed.
edns512tcp is when the testing software does an EDNS query with a buffer of 512 bytes and over TCP.
If you go to https://ednscomp.isc.org/ednscomp/ for your domain you will have the full test results.
For that specific error it is:
EDNS - over TCP Response (edns#512tcp)
dig +vc +nocookie +norec +noad +edns +dnssec +bufsize=512 dnskey zone #server
expect: NOERROR
expect: OPT record with version set to 0
See RFC5966 and See RFC6891
So you can see which DNS query was done with dig, that you can reproduce it (+vc is an old flag name that is an alias for +tcp). The test expects to get a NOERROR code back and an OPT record. Your servers did not reply at all, so the test failed.
It seems that your servers did not reply to that at all, which is wrong. Maybe they do not reply to TCP queries at all which is even more wrong. In all cases you will need to contact the entity responsible for maintaining those servers and point it to the test results so that they start to fix the problem.
thanks for your help.
I read more about it and I could detect that port 53 was being blocked by the firewall, I added the rule to the firewall to allow TCP connections on port 53.
Everything it's fine now

LibGDX: Error making a socket connection to *ip-adress*

I want to make 2 devices communicate via sockets.
I use this code for the client socket:
Socket socket = Gdx.net.newClientSocket(Net.Protocol.TCP, adress, 1337, socketHints);
(SocketHints: timeout = 4000)
I get a GdxRuntimeException each time this line is being executed. What is wrong with the socket?
Screenshot of stack trace
You get that message because the socket couldn't be opened.
Note the last line about the return in the API:
newClientSocket:
Socket newClientSocket(Net.Protocol protocol,
java.lang.String host,
int port,
SocketHints hints)
Creates a new TCP client socket that connects to the given host and port.
Parameters:
host - the host address
port - the port
hints - additional SocketHints used to create the socket. Input null to use the default setting provided by the system.
Returns:
GdxRuntimeException in case the socket couldn't be opened
Try doing some debugging to find out why you are getting this error.
Is the port already in use? Are you trying to open more than one connection on the same port? Is the server IP valid? Maybe something else is causing the issue?

Can't get Zabbix to email alerts

I've recently spun up a new Zabbix 3.0 instance on Ubuntu 16.04 using Php 7.0 and I am running into a lot of issues trying to get it to e-mail the Zabbix administrators. We are trying to use Amazon SES to send out the e-mails. For our setup, we have a usename & password that was generated by SES we are using port 587 with SSL/TLS connection. I've made sure that the alert is enabled and that the E-mail media type was enabled as well. I've also double checked the Zabbix is compiled with SMTP & TLS support. I've also verified that the Zabbix server can get to the Amazon SMTP endpoint on port 587. From the messages it seems to be some form of a communication issue, but everything I've tried isn't really getting me anywhere.

Just for reference, I do have Zabbix running off of HTTPS. To get that configured I just made a change to the Apache sites-enabled default file to point to the certificate on the local machine. They are signed certificates. I had also installed the most recent openssl package
Has anyone ran into this issue before or know of what might be happening?
Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks :)
587 is STARTTLS, use 465 for SSL/TSL (don't forget to configure security group):
You may have problems with email/email domain verification. Be sure that's OK.

Setting up Meteor Email with AWS SMTP

This Meteor server code tries to send email from the server start up.
The steps I followed after reading the AWS docs are:
1) Verify an email address which is also on AWS webMail.
2) Applied to increase sending limits.
3) Created and received SMTP credentials.
Meteor 1.4.4.2
email#1.2.1
//server/main.js
smtp = {
'username': 'from smtp credentials',
'password': 'from smtp credentials',
'host': 'email-smtp.us-east-1.amazonaws.com',
'port': '465',
'auth': true
};
process.env.MAIL_URL = 'smtp://' + encodeURIComponent(smtp.username) + ':' + encodeURIComponent(smtp.password) + '#' + encodeURIComponent(smtp.outgoingServer) + ':' + smtp.outgoingPort;
Meteor.startup(() => {
Email.send({
to: 'my-aws-verified-email#comp.com',
subject: 'sending-to-myselft',
text: 'Just checking if it is working'
});
});
Error: getaddrinfo ENOTFOUND undefined undefined:587
Any idea how to get it to work? thx
edit
After changing the process.env.MAIL_URL value to:
process.env.MAIL_URL = 'smtp://' + encodeURIComponent(smtp.username) +
':' + encodeURIComponent(smtp.password) +
'#' + encodeURIComponent(smtp.host) +
':' + smtp.auth + ':' + smtp.port;
The error now is:
Error: Greeting never received
changing the port to "587" gives a different error:
Error: Mail command failed: 501 Invalid MAIL FROM address provided

You were troubleshooting two simultaneous issues, and when you fixed one of them, it wasn't obvious that you were making progress, because then you encountered the other.
For outbound email, SES listens on two sets of ports.
STARTTLS on the standard port 587, the traditional (but wrong) port 25, and an unprivileged port 2587.
TLS Wrapper on the standard port 465, and an unprivileged port 2465.
The difference between the two sets is how the SSL (TLS) is negotiated. With STARTTLS, the server talks first and the client asks that the connection switch to encrypted mode... while with TLS Wrapper, the connection starts out with TLS but the client talks first, initiating TLS negotiation.
Clearly, from these descriptions, using a TLS Wrapper port when the client anticipates using STARTTLS will result in a timeout, since both sides are waiting for the other side to talk.
Port 25 is not a winner, since EC2 has aggressive rate limiting enabled by default, to prevent the obvious spam problem that would otherwise happen. You can ask for this to be disabled by submitting a support request, but the simplest solution is to just use port 587.
http://docs.aws.amazon.com/ses/latest/DeveloperGuide/smtp-connect.html
Then, your client wasn't setting a sender address, since no from address was being specified.

Alfresco smtp configuration for organisational mail

I am trying to configure smtp for organisational mail in alfresco 4.2e.
Here is my global configuration
mail.host=smthost.abcd.com
mail.port=25
mail.username=sameer#abcd.com
mail.password=password
mail.encoding=UTF-8
mail.from.default=sameer#abcd.com
mail.smtp.auth=false
I am unable to send the mail. Here is
org.springframework.mail.MailSendException: Mail server connection failed; nested exception is javax.mail.MessagingException: Could not connect to SMTP host: smtphost.abcd.com, port: 25;
nested exception is:
java.net.SocketException: Network is unreachable: connect. Failed messages: javax.mail.MessagingException: Could not connect to SMTP host: smtphost.abcd.com, port: 25;
nested exception is:
java.net.SocketException: Network is unreachable: connect; message exception details (1) are:
Failed message 1:
javax.mail.MessagingException: Could not connect to SMTP host: smtphost.abcd.com, port: 25;
I am able to connect using
telnet smtphost.abcd.com25
and I am able to ping
Your network (most likely your gateway) is telling you it cannot reach the network of abc.efgh.ijkl.com. If you test, make sure to execute telnet from the server giving you the error. Telnet should give you same error message.
tcpdump -n -i any port 25
will show all outgoing traffic targeting SMTP and should give you further information about the problem at the network level (such as IP addresses used).
After so much search I found the issue of the problem. The problem occured because java using IPv6 by default. To fix,
I disabled IPV6 on windows
Set the Java property as setx _JAVA_OPTIONS -Djava.net.preferIPv4Stack=true
