Unable to configure mail for Elmah

Tags:

elmah

I have the following configuration file snippet

<configSections>
    <sectionGroup name="elmah">
      <section name="security" requirePermission="false" type="Elmah.SecuritySectionHandler, Elmah" />
      <section name="errorLog" requirePermission="false" type="Elmah.ErrorLogSectionHandler, Elmah" />
      <section name="errorMail" requirePermission="false" type="Elmah.ErrorMailSectionHandler, Elmah" />
      <section name="errorFilter" requirePermission="false" type="Elmah.ErrorFilterSectionHandler, Elmah" />
    </sectionGroup>
  </configSections>
 <mailSettings>
      <smtp deliveryMethod="Network">
        <network host="smtp.gmail.com"
           port="587"
           userName="[email protected]"
           password="password" />
        </smtp>
      </mailSettings>
  </system.net>
 <elmah>
    <errorMail
              from="[email protected]"
              to="[email protected]"
              sync="true"
              smtpPort="0"
              useSsl="true"
            />
  </elmah>

I have replaced the example1 etc.. with proper stuff . Now, i have the following issues: - 1) Why is it not working ? 2) How do i debug it ? 3) I need a permanent way to debug the web.config or atleast some code which will emit some error message when there is something wrong in the config file .

Try this:

<configuration>
    <configSections>
        <!--ELMAH-->
        <sectionGroup name="elmah">
            <section name="security" requirePermission="false" type="Elmah.SecuritySectionHandler, Elmah"/>
            <section name="errorLog" requirePermission="false" type="Elmah.ErrorLogSectionHandler, Elmah"/>
            <section name="errorMail" requirePermission="false" type="Elmah.ErrorMailSectionHandler, Elmah"/>
            <section name="errorFilter" requirePermission="false" type="Elmah.ErrorFilterSectionHandler, Elmah"/>
        </sectionGroup>
    </configSections>
    <elmah>
        <security allowRemoteAccess="1"/>   
        <!-- set the smtpPort attribute to "0". Doing so will cause ELMAH to use the port defined per the <system.net> settings -->

Try this way

<system.net>
    <mailSettings>
      <smtp deliveryMethod="Network">
        <network host="smtp.gmail.com" defaultCredentials="false"
        port="587" userName ="[email protected]" password="yourMailPassword" />
      </smtp>
    </mailSettings>
   </system.net>
