Archiva setup
All,
I am trying to configure Archiva 1.1.2 on a Solaris X86 box. I have
unpacked Archiva to /app/archiva, I have also created the file
/app/archiva/conf/security.properties in which I am specifying some SMTP
settings. These settings should enable me to be able to send email (user
notification) but I am not able to do so. I looked through the logs in
/app/archiva/logs (the stdouterr, require, audit ... etc) but I don't
see it trying to send any mail. Is there a way for me to verify this
file is being loaded propertly? Such as a way to enable more verbose
logging?

You're right, same problem here. This seems to be a bug in the logging.

RE: Archiva setup
Posted by Michael Delaney <md...@upromise.com>.
I up'ed the log level for every entry in WEB-INF/classes/log4j.xml to
debug and updated the SMTP host, in $ARCHIVA_BASE/conf/jetty.xml) to be
'badhostnamethingy' and yet still no exception in any file (located in
$ARCHIVA_BASE/logs).
I searched the archives for how to configure this but found nothing that
helped me out.
Does it matter that I am in standalone mode?

Hmm, the migration to the jetty bundle seems to have modified the
behavior.
Could you file a jira for this please so we could track this issue? :)

(Sorry I forgot to add this in my previous reply) You might need to
change
the log level to DEBUG in WEB-INF/classes/log4j.xml for the error to
show
up..

The email.jndiSessionName is the name of the JNDI session to be looked
up
and used by redback's mail sender. This is the equivalent of the
<Arg>mail/Session</Arg> configured in the jetty descriptor.

Hmm, the migration to the jetty bundle seems to have modified the behavior.
Could you file a jira for this please so we could track this issue? :)

(Sorry I forgot to add this in my previous reply) You might need to change
the log level to DEBUG in WEB-INF/classes/log4j.xml for the error to show
up..

The email.jndiSessionName is the name of the JNDI session to be looked up
and used by redback's mail sender. This is the equivalent of the
<Arg>mail/Session</Arg> configured in the jetty descriptor.

RE: Archiva setup
Posted by Michael Delaney <md...@upromise.com>.
I was unable to get email to be sent via Archiva using the
security.properties file (located in $ARCHIVA_BASE/conf). The ONLY way I
was able to get this to work was by updating the jetty.xml file (located
in $ARCHIVA_BASE/conf) with the updated smtp host information. From what
I read, you should be able to set any SMTP related values in the
security.properties. This doesn't seem to be the case. Some email
settings could be specified in the security.properties file but it
doesn't seem consistant.
I have included a sample file that I was using, with zero success.
We also noticed that if there are exceptions being throw from Archiva,
which I assume there are when the email setting are configured properly,
we aren't seeming them in ANY logs (archiva, stderrout, wrapper ...
etc).
Also when looking at the security.properties (located at
http://svn.codehaus.org/redback/redback/trunk/redback-configuration/src/
main/resources/org/codehaus/plexus/redback/config-defaults.properties) I
see that there is a property named 'email.jndiSessionName' what is its
purpose? I was trying to decode its purpose but I couldn't come to a
good conclusion.

Deng,
I went created the user via the registration process. I also attempted
to resend the validation mail via the 'User Management' page on Archiva.

Hi Michael,
Since Redback 1.1, validation mails are no longer sent for users created
by
a User/System admin. It is now only sent if the user went through the
registration process.
Hmm, did you try re-sending the validation mail?
Thanks,
