Civimail User Check : it appears that the proxy URL that you gave is invalid
July 22, 2008, 09:18:47 am
I've changed servers and *thought* that I got every configured properly, but I am getting the following error on the CiviSMTP Account Settings (https://civismtp.uas.coop/drupal/civismtp/account) page

Civimail User Check : it appears that the proxy URL that you gave is invalid

I am certain that I have the correct address
SOAP is enabled
I have verified the username & password
still using CiviCRM 1.93 (upgrading soon)
I checked for stray linebreaks in settings_location.php according to... http://forum.civicrm.org/index.php/topic,3702.0.html

Any thoughts? Surely I missed something.

I have a mailing that needs to go out ASAP :(

We had this issue a while back. Unfortunately, I'm not remembering exactly what we did to fix it, but try re-entering the SMTP password and let me know if that works.

yeah, SMTP username and password are verified and the CiviSMTP page confirms that SMTP is working.

Cynthia,
I saw similar troubles from you here:
http://forum.civicrm.org/index.php/topic,3702.msg16623.html#msg16623

which does not seem to be our problem.

And from Joe Murray here:
http://forum.civicrm.org/index.php/topic,3702.msg16623.html#msg16623

which also does not seem to be our problem.

Hi,
   Are you sure that your settings_location.php file is in the right place and/or that Civi has the right path to find it? Try renaming it and see if you get the same error.
   Our location file looks like this:
<?php
define('CIVICRM_CONFDIR','/var/www/domainname/sites');
?>

   Also, is your resource url correct?

FIXED!

The problem:

the wiki template for settings_location.php is out of date

I had made my settings_location.php file based on the template at http://wiki.civicrm.org/confluence/display/CRMDOC/CiviCRM+for+Drupal+-+Configure+Multi-site+Installations

Code: [Select]
// the following (/home/lobo/public_html/drupal/sites/)
// should be changed to your sites directory
<?php
define( 'CIVICRM_CONFDIR', '/home/lobo/public_html/drupal/sites/' );
?>
but this does not work.

A working template can be found at http://wiki.civicrm.org/confluence/display/CRMDOC/Installing+CiviCRM+from+subversion+(SVN)+repository

Code: [Select]
<?php

// the directory name for your 'sites' location in drupal. We use the below location
// along with drupal 'conf_init()' function to figure out where the settings files
// are located. This is primarily used when we hit CiviCRM outside of 'Drupal' (via mail/soap
// etc)
define( 'CIVICRM_CONFDIR', '/home/lobo/public_html/drupal/sites' );

?>
I suppose that the problem lies in the comments being placed before the "<?php". Now, how can we change the wiki? Can I do that or is there a more formal process?
