I'm struggling to get Publications to work on an AWS RedHat instance. I have opened up port 7125 and the server does not care if I send it emails - these eventually come back with this smtp error:

 

 

Diagnostic-Code: smtp; The recipient server did not accept our requests to connect.

 

 

I am looking at email.properties in a FME 2016 installation where email publication works and it has this in it:

 

#Remote Manager Connection Info

EMAILRM_HOST=localhost

 

EMAILRM_PORT=4555

 

EMAILRM_USER=root

 

EMAILRM_PASSWORD= **********

I am wondering if this is related.

 

 

So far I have tried on ports 7125 (default) and also on 25 (hail mary). Both are open in AWS, but running with either config leaves me sitting sadly watching topic monitoring and eventually getting notifications when my sending email server finally gives up.

If anhy of this sounds familiar to you, please chime in as I am not sure what to do next.

Thanks,

 

Fuad.
