I just recently install GitLab v5.0 on an Ubuntu 12.04 server and am now having issues with email notifications. I can't get GitLab to send any emails of any kind.
I've got my config/environments/production.rb
file setup to use sendmail as the transport service:
config.action_mailer.delivery_method = :sendmail
config.action_mailer.perform_deliveries = true
config.action_mailer.raise_delivery_errors = true
And I can manually use sendmail successfully from the shell as described here: http://scratching.psybermonkey.net/2011/03/sendmail-how-to-test-sending-email.html
My config/gitlab.yml
file is setup with the following email setting:
email_from: [email protected]
I've read that it could be a problem with Sidekiq not running so I ran the following command but nothing has changed.. I still can't send emails:
$ sudo -u git -H bundle exec rake sidekiq:start RAILS_ENV=production
$ ps aux |grep -i sidekiq
git 2791 2.1 4.2 206476 86620 pts/0 Sl 14:45 0:23 sidekiq 2.7.5 gitlab [0 of 25 busy]
Which indicates to me that Sidekiq is indeed running... what else could be the issue here? There doesn't seem to be much documentation on GitLab's wiki regarding email settings unfortunately...
I found the following error being logged in sidekiq.log:

Any ideas?
To enable pipeline status emails: In your project or group, on the left sidebar, select Settings > Integrations. Select Pipeline status emails. Ensure the Active checkbox is selected.
Under user settings of GitLab, the group email needs to be added. Once the mail is added and verified, the notification channel can be set up under Notifications. Once this is done, all notifications for that group (or project) will go to the group mail, and everyone in the team will get them.
Opt out of all GitLab emailsGo to the Notifications settings page. Clear the Receive product marketing emails checkbox. Set your Global notification level to Disabled. Clear the Receive notifications about your own activity checkbox.
This is my entries at the end in /config/environment/production.rb and that is working for me.
##config.action_mailer.delivery_method = :sendmail ## Comment out this
# Defaults to:
## config.action_mailer.sendmail_settings = {
## :location => '/usr/sbin/sendmail',
## :arguments => '-i -t'
## }
config.action_mailer.perform_deliveries = true
config.action_mailer.raise_delivery_errors = true
## SMTP Settings
config.action_mailer.delivery_method = :smtp
config.action_mailer.smtp_settings = {
:address => '10.146.10.90', ## My SMTP Relay/Gateway
:port => 25, ## SMTP Port
:domain => 'gitlab.example.com', ## My Domain
:authentication => :plain, ## Let it be plain as it is inside my LAN
##:user_name => '[email protected]', ## This is not required as long as
##:password => 'yourPassword', ## SMTP Gateway allows anonymous relay
##:enable_starttls_auto => true ## In LAN
##:user_name => '',
##:password => '',
:enable_starttls_auto => true
}
end
On CentOS, this helped for me:
check your file /home/git/gitlab/config/environments/production.rb (if your running on production, wich is standard)
There you can change your sendmail settings. You should try to remove the -t parameter, wich fixed it for me! Some mailservers don't accept this parameter (check your maillog to be sure)
config.action_mailer.sendmail_settings = {
:location => '/usr/sbin/sendmail',
:arguments => '-i'
}
