Problem receiving emails in redmine -> 422 Unprocessable Entity [http://xxxxxx.xxx/mail_handler]

Added by Albrecht Backhaus over 14 years ago

Hello,

I am having problems receiving emails in redmine. I still ran into the following error:

Processing MailHandlerController#index (for xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx at 2009-11-12 08:03:18) [POST]
Parameters: {"unknown_user"=>"accept", "allow_override"=>"project,tracker,priority", "issue"=>{"project"=>"foo"}, "key"=>"xxxxxxxxxxxxxx", "email"=>"From: ....here email content"}
Completed in 5ms (View: 0, DB: 1) | 422 Unprocessable Entity [http://xxxx.xxxxxx.xxxxx/mail_handler]

I read up and down the forums, wiki and googled the web. Nothing really helpful to find.

Can anybody please help me to solve this issue ?

Regards

Hello,
I have the same problem and resolved it by using "project=[projectID]".

But despite that, I cannot create new issue from not authenticated user :/ I make project public but that not helped.
Can you help me? Must I show some more logs?

Thank you!

Jaroslav:

Have a look here http://www.redmine.org/projects/redmine/repository/revisions/2793/entry/trunk/extra/mail_handler/rdm-mailhandler.rb . You will find another option explained in that file (read hints at the top re --unknown-user=ACTION) which allows you to let unknown users send mails into redmine.
I could not find that explanation in a FAQ or wiki and stumbled over it during my quest for help when I had this problem too.

Thank you very much for your response and help.
As I understand "rdm-mailhandler" is for reading of emails from standard input ("Reads an email from standard input and forward it to a Redmine server through a HTTP request."). We need fetching via IMAP (rake -f /apps/redmine-0.8.7/Rakefile redmine:email:receive_imap ...).

Redmine version 0.8.4 reports about not defined parameter "--unknown-user".
When updated to 0.8.7 version: if using parameter --unknown-user (say --unknown-user=accept) - there is no action at all (no connect to the IMAP server, no errors even with --trace option). When running command without "--unknown-user=accept" - mailbox is checked and mails from unknown users (not registered in Redmine) are marked as read, but no issue is added to Redmine.

Maybe I should start new thread? Thank you!

Hello Jaroslav, these parameter should work with the IMAP server as well. But there are some more settings being involved in that issue. Have a look here #3554.
The project needs to be "public" or anonymous email creation will fail.

Hello,

I have the same problem actually : 422 Unprocessable Entity

I receive by mail :
<>: permission denied. Command output: Request was
denied by your Redmine server. Possible reasons: email is sent from an
invalid email address or is missing some information

I'm running the version 0.9.2 of redmine and any of input mails function.
I have tried to put "--unknown-user=accept" option, but it doesn't works.

Any idea please ? Thanks in advance for your helps.

Hello,
you must put not "--unknown-user=accept" but "unknown-user=accept" (without dashes in front).
For more options: http://redmine.rubyforge.org/svn/trunk/lib/tasks/email.rake
This works for my in 0.9.2 stable version of Redmine.

The problem for me is the fact, that I cannot found the solution of sending mail back to users from Redmine.. :/ I wish to send issue summary to external users. Redmine-ezsummary - is something, that is almost that, what I'm searching for, but it is not working with 0.9.2

We use Redmine with LDAP authentication, so "unknown-user=create" is not working too..
