Sending email Alfresco 6.2

[jardelucio]

Hey guys!

I'm using an alfresco-content-community image; 6.2.0. And I need to configure to send email. I know that to do this I need to edit the alfresco-global.properties file, but when I find this file it is empty. I have two questions, which are as follows:

1) How can I edit or create this file and thus be able to send emails?
2) How can I unlock the alfresco-global.properties file in order to edit it?

I'm submitting the contents of docker-compose.yml below for analysis.

Thanks!

# This docker-compose file will spin up an ACS cluster on a local host or on a server and it requires a minimum of 12GB Memory to distribute among containers.
# Limit container memory and assign X percentage to JVM. There are couple of ways to allocate JVM Memory for ACS Containers
# For example: 'JAVA_OPTS: "$JAVA_OPTS -XX:+PrintFlagsFinal -XX:+UnlockExperimentalVMOptions -XX:+UseCGroupMemoryLimitForHeap"'
# See Oracle docs
# If the container memory is not explicitly set then the flags above will set the max heap default to 1/4 of the container's memory, which may not be ideal.
# For performance tuning, assign the container memory and give a percentage of it to the JVM.

# Using version 2 as 3 does not support resource constraint options (cpu_*, mem_* limits) for non swarm mode in Compose
version: "2"

You can add your email configuration to JAVA_OPTS section

services:
  alfresco:
    environment:
      JAVA_OPTS: ""

Hi!

I entered the email settings in docker-compose, and since then I can't authenticate anymore, the message "Your authentication details were not recognized or Alfresco Content Services is not currently available" appears. How can I check the logs for the cause of this message?

Hi jardelucio

Go to your Alfresco docker installation path (e.g.: /opt/alfresco) and launch:

sudo docker-compose --tail=500 alfresco

Let us know what do you have.

Cheers.

Does this command show me the error logs? I got no response from this command.

Did you went to your Alfresco root path installation before to execute it?
