Phabricator SES Emails?

Question

My mailers.json file:

[
 {
"key": "ExampleOrg",
"type": "ses",
"options": {
  "endpoint": "email-smtp.us-east-1.amazonaws.com",
  "access-key": "....................",
    "secret-key": ".............................."
}
 }
]

then cd to Phabricator installation

./bin/config set --stdin cluster.mailers < mailers.json

I restarted apache2, but still all the emails are pending in Queue.

Answer 1

For anyone facing this issue change the endpoint url

from: "endpoint": " email-smtp .us-east-1.amazonaws.com", to: "endpoint": " email .us-east-1.amazonaws.com",

Phabricator expects the http endpoint url and not the smtp

Answer 2

Try sending a test email using

bin/mail send-test --to alincoln --subject hi < body.txt

it will show you the error if there are any, in my case it was the php-xml installing it solved the issue

sudo apt install php-xml
