• SMTP Settings in Notifications Not Working

    I had version 6.6.6.  SMTP and emails were working correctly.

    Upgraded to version 6.7.2.  SMTP settings show correct in Notifications settings.  Use TEST button to send test email.  Button changes to "Test Results" but none shows.  Never receive test email.  Checked SYSLOG but there are no entries referring to SMTP/mail activity at all.  Do not receive daily system status emails.

    What do I have to do to get notifications via email working?  There does not appear to be any mail or smtp process running to provide this service, even though there are options for this on the notifications page.

     

    I really need those emails to know that my unraid boxes are running correctly.

    Your go file (/config/go on the flash drive) currently contains this:

    #!/bin/bash
    # Start the Management Utility
    /usr/local/sbin/emhttp &
    /boot/unmenu/uu
    
    # link to moved file so unmenu works.
    ln -s /usr/local/sbin/mdcmd /root
    
    cd /boot/packages && find . -name '*.auto_install' -type f -print | sort | xargs -n1 sh -c
    /boot/custom/etc/ServerStartup.sh
    

    Change it to be 

    #!/bin/bash
    # Start the Management Utility
    /usr/local/sbin/emhttp &

     

    unmenu hasn't been compatible with unRaid for years now, and who knows what kind of adverse effects it's having.  After reverting back to the stock go file if everything works fine, then you can look at whatever you're running in ServerStartup.sh and decide if you want it back or not, but unmenu should definitely NOT get loaded, ever.
