Solaris 11 SMTP Host Confirmation

Trying to find where in solaris an smtp host is configured. we are changing some relays and need to reconfigure where it sends mail through.

Hi,
if you mean how to tell a system to deliver locally received mail messages to a central
mail server for processing then this is done by making sure the mail server is known
as "mailhost.your.domain.name":
For the client system:
https://docs.oracle.com/cd/E36784_01/html/E36828/mailadmin-20.html#scrolltoc
For the actual mail server:
https://docs.oracle.com/cd/E36784_01/html/E36828/mailadmin-29.html
Regards,
Ronald

nested exception is:
java.net.ConnectException: Connection refusedYou didn't notice that this question is asked every day here?
Your computer can't connect to a computer named "son1175", or if it can then that computer isn't running a server listening at port 25. Talk to your network people if your computer name is the right one and ask them why not. It is nothing to do with programming.

Smtp host name

can anybody tell me if i set the SMTP server host name from .lh setup after loading all the users and objects into the repository ?
will this have any affect on the data or any other unforseen problems?
Thanks for your help.

the prod system is built and now i have to set the SMTP host before roll-out.
Will there be any problems if i execute init.xml after configuring SMTP host??

10gR1 OEM can not verify Solaris 10 host. 10gR2 agent can upload though

Got following error when tried to verify Solaris 10 host.
I have 10gR1 (1.0.3) fresh installation without patch on server 1. Recently I installed 10g R2 agent on a Solaris 10 server 2. The agent can upload data back to the OMS without problem. But after I enter server 2 host credential to verify host connection I got the following error in emoms.log on Sever 1.
"2006-05-31 17:16:49,704 [EMUI_17_05_35_/console/pref/setCredentials$targetType=host] ERROR creds.SetPrefCreds testCreds.1281 - SetPrefCreds.testCreds(): CredsException: Connection to host bcrcxfwwd7p.something.com as user xxxx failed: IOException in sending Request :: Connection timed out"
I can use Secure shell in Solaris to connect to server2 as xxxx directly & do my work.
But somehow I can not verify the host connection from within OEM.
I don't have any problem to use OEM to manage 9 other Solaris 9 hosts and 10g databases. Is Solaris 10 specific problem?
Any suggestions are welcome
Mike

Hang on, are you using a 10.1 oms with a 10.2 agent reporting to it?
If so, thats an unsupported configuration.

Hi
I am using tomcat and trying to send emails. I keep getting a javax.servlet.ServletException: Unknown SMTP host error.
I initially thought the problem was with the line: props.put("mail.smtp.host", "makethegrade.co.za"); But i checked the smtp info with the guys i'm hosing with and they said its right

All I can see is that you are running this in a web application. In most web application containers there's a place where you configure your mail providers and mail sessions. You seem to be ignoring that (you aren't using JNDI to get a session for example) but you are getting the default instance, so perhaps that uses that configuration anyway.

MessagingException "Unknown SMTP host"

Hi
I am using JavaMail to send out emails from an ecommerce application. We are now deploying the application and are getting the following message....
nested exception is:
class javax.mail.MessagingException: Unknown SMTP host: smtp.thehost.com ;
nested exception is:
java.net.UnknownHostException: smtp.thehost.com
(note the server name is not actually smtp.thehost.com) - ive used that one here for confidentality.
If i try to telnet to smtp.thehost.com on port 25 i get the expected 220 and everything seems fine. Its like JavaMail cant see the mailhost when everything else can.
I am using :
Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.4.2_04-b05)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.4.2_04-b05, mixed mode)
on Redhat.
Any suggestions?
Regards
Lawrence

If i try to telnet to smtp.thehost.com on port 25 i get the expected 220 and everything seems fine. Its like JavaMail cant see the mailhost when everything else can.This suggests that you aren't telling JavaMail the right host name. It looks to me as if it has an unnecessary space at the end, but at any rate check your code.

Hello, javax.mail.MessagingException: Unknown SMTP host:

Hello,
I am trying to send a mail and use a smtp Server which is located on the internet. I am however behind a firewall and am getting the following exception being thrown:
javax.mail.MessagingException: Unknown SMTP host:
This implies that I need to provide some settings for my proxy server. I though to solve this problem I could do the following:
System.getProperties().put("proxySet", "true");
System.getProperties().put("http.proxyHost", proxyHost);
System.getProperties().put("http.proxyPort", proxyport);
This however does not solve me problem as I still get the above exception. Could someone please give help me. Any suggestions,solutions or ideas as to what the problem might be would be appreciated.
Thanks much,
Alex.

HTTP is not SMTP.
Your proxy server no doubt allows your system to send
HTTP traffic to and from the outside world, and using
that code you posted would allow Java classes to do
that as well. But HTTP is not SMTP. Ask the network
people who configured your proxy server if it can act
as an SMTP proxy, and if so what you have to do to
use it in that way.Thanks much for your reply. I am however a little confused. Could you explain to me exactly what an SMTP proxy is/does.
Thanks much,
Alex.

Sending with different SMTP host....

A friend of mine subscribes to .Mac, and sends out a newsletter to more than 400 recipients a day (which exceeds the .Mac daily quota).
I saw in the .Mac forum someone with a similar problem, and a solution someone suggested was to use a different SMTP host (such as the one that comes with their provider).
The details they gave were kind of vague with the suggestion, and what I want to do is clarify a little....
She just got a new MBP, so I was going to help set it up and configure it (upgrading from her Cube), and was just wondering if I should just set the default SMTP host as her cable provider's SMTP. Simplicity is key here.
So, here's the question:
If I set up her .Mac account so that the default SMTP account is her provider's SMTP setting, will it show as that other account for the "From" and "Reply To" when other people see it? (I don't care when people see long header/raw source-just to the average Joe/Joan).
I just want to make sure it's seamless.
Thanks.

I am having a problem with multiple accounts - we use 4 ISP / SMTP accounts and when we set the outgoing SMTP server in Mail preferences for each account they seem to change without notice. Our web/business mail host mailbox will switch and try sending mail on att.net SMTP and the mail just won't go. At other times this causes the replys to come back to the wrong mail box. I could delete all but one but this causes additional problems with servers not accepting other IP mail. Anyone elso have this problem or an answer? We have a wired LAN thru a managed router but this doesn't seem to be the cause.

Getting nested exception(Unknown SMTP host)

hello
i have written a simple mailclient.i am running the following programme from my local machine which is under proxy server.
public class MailExample {
public static void main (String args[]) throws Exception {
String host = "mail.ab";
String from = "[email protected]";
String to = "[email protected]";
Properties props = System.getProperties();
props.put("mail.smtp.host", host);
Session session = Session.getDefaultInstance(props, null);
MimeMessage message = new MimeMessage(session);
message.setFrom(new InternetAddress(from));
message.addRecipient(Message.RecipientType.TO,
new InternetAddress(to));
message.setSubject("Hello JavaMail");
message.setText("Welcome");
Transport.send(message);
This host is some other machine.
i am getting nested exception as unknown SMTP host.
please help.
thanks in advance

Unknown host: it is telling you that it can't find the host you told it to look for. Either you gave it the name of a system that does not exist, or that system does not have an SMTP host running on it. I would guess the first reason, as "mail.ab" does not look right to me. (What country is "ab" and why is there only one mail server in the entire country?)

SMTP host for the e-mails in Oracle Application Server 10g

Hi,
I would like to ask in which file from the Oracle Application Server 10g is the configuration for SMTP Host for the e-mails.
Thank you,
Mihaela

Hi Ibrahim,
You can do an easier installation by only using base release of 10.1.2.0.2. What I stated would be good practice:
By * DB 10.2.0.3 ---- > u mean (Database Version) => Yes, use Database version 10.2.0.3
By * Identity Management 10.1.4.0.1 (OID/SSO) -----> u mean (Application Server infrastructure) => Yes, use Identity Management 10.1.4.0.1 instead of the infrastructure on Application Server 10.1.2.0.2
By * Application Server 10.1.2.0.2 -----> u mean (Middle Tire Forms&Report Services) => Yes, use Application Server 10.1.2.0.2 as middle-tier. When installed, upgrade it to 10.1.2.2 (with the latest patchset)
By * Patch Application Server DB client to 10.1.0.5 ----> u mean what? => Before you upgrade AS to 10.1.2.2 it's mandatory to upgrade the Database client software in the Application Server 10.1.2.0.2 home to 10.1.0.5. Default is 10.1.4. You'll see database client version by for instance starting SQL*Plus.
For your Developer (Forms) upgrade: Forms 4.0/4.5 - 6i -> 10g. See: http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/forms/htdocs/upgrade/index.html. If you have tons of Forms, then I recommend using a tool like the great PITTS.CON (http://www.pitss.com/en/pcon/index.htm).

Martin
