What is the expected behavior?

The e-mails should be sent.

What do you see instead?

I tried to send a test e-mail to my gmail account from the admin panel. This is what I got:

So it does not work by now.

These are the logs from the Discourse container:

and when I shuttle in the container and execute the following

RAILS_ENV=production bundle exec rails c

irb(main):002:0> message = TestMailer.send_test("[email protected]")
Traceback (most recent call last):
        2: from app/mailers/test_mailer.rb:7:in `send_test'
        1: from lib/email/build_email_helper.rb:8:in `build_email'
ArgumentError (:arguments expected to be an Array of individual string args)

an error shows up, which should normally not be the case.

Do you know how to fix that issue?

Hi @junoriosity

Have you taken a look to this thread?

[junoriosity]

Hi @fmulero

many thanks for getting back to me. Well, I did the env variable setting very similar.

However, the whole testing procedure outlined there is difficult as the dir structure is quite different from the one I tend to find in my pods.

For instance, when running

telnet smtp.mailgun.org 587

it tells me

root@discourse-69c7f5475c-h9qf5:/# cd opt/bitnami/discourse/
root@discourse-69c7f5475c-h9qf5:/opt/bitnami/discourse# telnet smtp.mailgun.org 587
bash: telnet: command not found

Do you have a suggestion how I could test this and other things in the pod I find after using the bitnami helm chart?
