Email Library smtp_auth Issue - El Forum - 05-28-2008
[eluser]Unknown[/eluser]
Found a small 'bug' (more of a consistency issue) in the Email library in 1.6.2 (may have existed in earlier versions too). The "_smtp_auth" variable is only set if the username and password has been passed to the contructor, not if its passed to the "initialize" method as can be expected.
Broken Example: (does not try to auth with the smtp server)
Code:
$this->load->library('email');
$config['protocol'] = 'smtp';
$config['smtp_port'] = 25;
$config['smtp_host'] = 'mail.test.com';
$config['smtp_user'] = '[email protected]';
$config['smtp_pass'] = 'somepassword';
$this->email->initialize($config);Working Example: (auths with the smtp server perfectly)
Code:
$config['protocol'] = 'smtp';
$config['smtp_port'] = 25;
$config['smtp_host'] = 'mail.test.com';
$config['smtp_user'] = '[email protected]';
$config['smtp_pass'] = 'somepassword';
$this->load->library('email', $config);From what I can find, you only set the '_smtp_auth' variable in the CI_Email constructor using this line of code:
Code:
$this->_smtp_auth = ($this->smtp_user == '' AND $this->smtp_pass == '') ? FALSE : TRUE;If you try to initialize after construction with the login details, they are ignored since '_smtp_auth' in not set anywhere else.
Minor annoyance, but would be easy enough to fix and save the next guy 30 min of head scratching.

I think that could be related to what I've reported here:

I will make some more tests and confirm if what you say solved my problem.

So I confirm this bug relative to the problem I had with the post below, that does the trick!

yep, looks like you caught a bug. nice one, thanks. did you put it in the bug tracker? (reach it from the codeigniter.com home page link.
as a workaround you could add:
Code:
$config['_smtp_auth'] = TRUE;obviously, not the real answer, but the initialize code does go thru and dutifully set any keys you send it.
cheers.
