sendmail action- not sending
Hi
I have set up a pipeline to send some mail. I check the status of the
action, and it says success. However, I do not get the email. Here is
the pipeline.
<map:match pattern="success-pipeline">
<map:act type="sendmail">
<map:parameter name="from" value="<invalid email>"/>
<map:parameter name="to" value="<valid email>"/>
<map:parameter name="attachments" value=""/>
<map:parameter name="cc" value=""/>
<map:parameter name="bcc" value=""/>
<map:parameter name="subject" value="Hello"/>
<map:parameter name="body" value="Hello"/>
<map:generate type="file" src="xml/enquire_success.xml"/>
<map:transform type="xslt" src="xslt/kamal.xsl">
<map:parameter name="value" value="{status}"/>
</map:transform>
<map:serialize type="html"/>
</map:act>
</map:match>
I have removed the emails, but you get the idea. Now, what is curious is
that I am using cocoon2.1.7 as well, also with a sendmail action on the
same server, but using a different appserver (plain old tomcat). It
works fine, sending from the same email address and sending to the same
email address. This version of cocoon is 2.1.9 and is running on jboss.
Does anyone know how I can either debug this problem or fix it?
Thanks.

Sure, better documentation is always a good thing. I was only
responding to your question about whether it would be fixed in the future.
Feel free to open a JIRA issue about the documentation with the text
you'd like to have added and what page it should go on.

OK, but it would be nice to have this "feature" documented better than
it is. It is a serious time waster as you get no feedback from any logs.
This is not information that belongs in the wiki but in the main page IMHO.
Anyway, that is my two cents.

The geronimo files are shipped with the Cocoon 2.1.x distribution
*because* the Sun JARs cannot be but the JavaMail APIs must still be
available to compile against. The geronimo JARs provide those APIs (so
it compiles), but not the implementation (so it doesn't function at
runtime). Hence if you want to actually use the mail functionality in
your Cocoon app you have to replace the geronimo JARs with the Sun JARs.
Since Maven can legally retrieve the actual Sun JARs directly to compile
against, the geronimo ones are no longer needed. Problem solved.

But as I understand it, this is not a problem with the Sun libraries,
but with a build process that includes files it should include, ie the
geronimo jar files. So I am confused as to how maven is used.

Cocoon 2.2 uses Maven to automatically download the Sun JARs from Sun's
site at build time, bypassing the distribution licensing restrictions
that prevent the JARs from being shipped with Cocoon directly. So this
will no longer be a problem.

Fixed this, the solution is hidden away here:
http://wiki.apache.org/cocoon/SendMailTransformer
Quote:
The SendMailTransformer needs the JavaMail and JavaBeans Activation
Framework (JAF) API's from Sun to work. Add them to WEB-INF/lib. Remove
geronimo-spec-javamail-1.3.1-rc5.jar and
geronimo-spec-activation-1.0.2-rc4.jar from WEB-INF/lib.
Took me a day to find this. Will this be fixed in future versions? If
not, is it possible to put it on the main cocoon page as a warning or
something.
