SMTP for Aris 9.5

Dear David,

In ARIS 9.5 you need to register your SMTP server via ARIS Cloud Controller using this command:

register external service smtp host="YourMailServerAdressWithDomain" port=25

Check that setting using this ACC command:

list external services

You also need to set a sender's address. You can do that via this URL http://YourARISserverWithDomain/umc/#configuration.

Click SMTP in the dropdown box to see all parameters of that section, double click the following parameter and enter your mail server address:

com.aris.umc.notification.sender=ValidMailAccount@YourMailServerAddressWithDomain

If you have ARIS Design Server (YDS) installed, just restart it (stopall/startall in ARIS Cloud Controller).

But for ARIS Connect Server (YCS) you need also to set your SMTP server for the Collaboration component. Use the following command in the ARIS Cloud Controller (replace _m with your installation type, e.g. _s or _l):

reconfigure ecp_m +smtphost="YourMailServerAddress" +smtpport=25 +ecp.configuration.email="ValidMailAccount@YourMailServerAddressWithDomain"

show instance ecp_m

Restart the ARIS Connect Server (stopall/startall) and you should be fine.

Cheers

Rune

Hi Rune,

That got it configured  for us! Thanks for the help I was ripping my hair out trying to solve this one. 

Thanks,

Dave

Thanks for your feedback. I will see that our documentation will provide that information upfront with the next release.

Hi Rune,

Is it possible to change locked parameters for example SMTP authentcation (com.aris.umc.notification.smtp.authentication)? I could not change them even with system user or superuser.

I have registered the external service SMTP as suggested.

Thank you,

Sam

Hi Rune, thanks for clarification. Will there be support for exchange machines as well?

ARIS CONNECT 9.8.3 SMTP Configuration

I have been trying to configure email collaboration on ARIS Connect 9.8.3.

I registered the smtp. email notifications are not working.

please assist

Dear Joy,

Did you enter the required mail server parameters (SMTP) already in the ARIS Connect Server setup?

If not, you need to register the SMTP service and at least set some mandatory parameters via http://localhost/umc/#configuration:

• Select SMTP in the drop-down list
• Enter the host name 
• Enter the sender email address
  
  That address doesn't need to have a mailbox, so you could use the computer name (e.g. server1@mydomain.com), then you know from "where" an email has been sent

Cheers

Rune
