fgets() fwrite() in Xenforo error log

[Andy.N]

I have been getting dozen of these errors in Xenforo server log. I know Mike and Kier are busy working on XF 1.1 so I will try this venue first before sending them a ticket.

I notice that all of these errors come from the Mail class and looking at the detail of each error, it resulted from actions that will generate an email from the server (such as when a member sends another member a PC which will generate an email notification).

And it's important to note that I use Google STMP service instead of the server email.

Here are the errors I get (just posting the message)

• fgets(): SSL: Connection reset by peer library/Zend/Mail/Protocol/Abstract.php:364
• fwrite(): SSL operation failed with code 1. OpenSSL Error messages: error:1409F07F:SSL routines:SSL3_WRITE_PENDING:bad write retry library/Zend/Mail/Protocol/Abstract.php:324
• fwrite(): SSL: Broken pipe library/Zend/Mail/Protocol/Abstract.php:324

Are any emails getting out?

This looks like a failed SMTP connection. Possible causes include:

1) A problem with OpenSSL on your server.

2) Wrong port. I found reports of people fixing this problem by changing the SMTP port:

If you're having trouble sending mail but you've confirmed that encryption is active for SMTP in your mail client, try to configure your SMTP server on a different port (465 or 587).

I'm changing SSL connection port from 465 to 587 so let's hope that will fix it.
Thanks a lot Jake.

Change SMTP port (SSL) to 587 from 465 and now the errors are No connection has been established to smtp.gmail.com

Google only allows 465 with SSL doesn't it?

That's correct. The link Jake posted make it look like you can change the port but it does not work

I think that just means to switch from one to the other, for those who aren't sure if they're using SSL or not.

From the same page:

Outgoing Mail (SMTP) Server - requires TLS3 or SSL
Port for TLS/STARTTLS: 587
Port for SSL: 465

 

[Andy.N]

What do I have to verify that I can change to TLS and use port 587 if SSL seems to have problems?

 

[Paul B]

Change the encryption method in the ACP -> Options -> Email Options from SSL to TLS.

 

[Andy.N]

Change to TLS and port 587 and still exact same errors as with SSL.

This seems to suggest it's a php bug: http://code.google.com/p/jaxl/issues/detail?id=15

I did a Google search for this: http://www.google.co.uk/search?sour...1.+OpenSSL+Error+messages:+error:1409F07F:SSL
