Hi Etienne,

the problem with the current testserver setup is that the firewall forbids connections to the internet SMTP port (with good reason)! So, with the standard ckeckEmail procedure in place it is not possible to create a new account, since the address cannot be verified.

Now I have replaced the checkEmail procedure with a dummy version that does not try to contact any outside mail server.

could we save this dummy for use in test version? Brian could then implement that routine for initialization for test and the original procedure for original version?


This change is already checked in into the current "integration" branch, which should be the basis of future test versions. Oh, I just noticed that I forgot to push this, so, this evening it will be in the integration branch. :-)

But, thinking of https://bugs.cacert.org/view.php?id=1430, it may be nice to have an easy way to switch this feature back to "normal operation", so it is possible to test changes in the mail address verification...

I see the current change as a proof of concept (you may also call it "fasthack"), if anyone comes up with a better solution I'd be more than happy to integrate it.

Kind regards
Ted
;)

P.S.: Is there a meeting scheduled this evening? At least I'll try to be on IRC...



Greetings,

Karl-Heinz

PS: happy new year to all members of the list

So you can now create new accounts with arbitrary mail addresses. Just remember that (ping-)mails are only "delivered" to the testmgr at https://mgr.test.cacert.org:14843/login

See also https://wiki.cacert.org/Software/Assessment/FAQ for other details.

Kind regards
Ted
;)

Thank you Karl-Heinz.
In this case, I fail to create an account as a tester, all with Firefox, Vivaldi and Chromium. I am sorry.

Hi Etienne,

the message

> it shows me a red message on the top of the page:
> "Email Address given was invalid, or a test connection couldn't be made to
> your server, or the server rejected the email address as invalid
> Failed to make a connection to the mail server"
says, that the mail address you gave could not be connected to and
therefore no user was created.

neither in the test db nor for test-mgr.

Kind regards,

Karl-Heinz


nevertheless have a merry Christmas and a happy new year

Karl-Heinz
