E-mail configuration in TYPO3

Post by abcdomino » 23 Sep 2016, 10:04

Dear Experts,

I'm a newbie and need Your help.

Please advise me how can I configure e-mail settings for the Aimeos/Typo3 system
to send e-mails confirming shopping orders and registrations?
Where should I configure smtp and other e-mail settings?

Untill now I have found only these tips, but I found them not enough to configure all the e-mail...

Please help me to start with this issue...

Bestr regards,
Dominik

Use the Aimeos e-mail scheduler task and select "Order payment related e-mails"/"Customer account e-mails" and execute this task frequently:

Aimeos uses the SMTP configuration from the TYPO3 installation.

Hello and thank You very much for Your response!

Now, the smtp configuration works and e-mails are being send after I manually execute the task scheduler.
But unfortunately the scheduler does't push task automatically, instead there appears "late" remarks.

I would appreciate if You advise me how to automate executing the tasks. Please help

Best regards,
Dominik

You have to create a cronjob on the command line that executes ".../typo3/cli_dispatch.sh scheduler". More information about this can be found in the TYPO3 scheduler docs.

It's the command line of the operating system. In Linux you can open the crontab with

Code: Select all

crontab -e
and enter something like

Code: Select all

* * * * * /var/www/myvhost/typo3/cli_dispatch.phpsh scheduler

In the OS of your server. This is basic administration stuff and has nothing to do with Aimeos so it might be good if you read some tutorials about that first.

Hi, thank You for Your help. I've found a correct tools and have estabilished cron command executing the scheduler.

Now there is a new problem and the situation is following: the scheduler's jobs marked "Product notification e-mails" and "Order delivery related e-mails" are being executed by the Cron and seem to work, but "Order payment related e-mails" when being executed automatically the task starts and goes info "running" state, but stays in this state and doesn't do it's job. When being executed manually or if there are no orders to process the task goes to finish.

What can be wrong? What should I try? Please advice

Best regards,
Dominik
