OpenKM is a J2EE application deployed in Tomcat. Some parameters have a default configuration that fit common user requirements but others depend on specific user configuration.

OpenKM sometimes sends emails to users (because they have subscribed to a document or folder, for example) and you have to check that this email configuration is correct. If you edit the file $TOMCAT_HOME/conf/server.xml:

$ vim $TOMCAT_HOME/conf/server.xml

You will see something like this:

<Resource name="mail/OpenKM" type="javax.mail.Session"
    mail.transport.protocol="smtp"
    mail.smtp.auth="true"
    mail.smtp.host="your smtp server"
    mail.smtp.user="<username>"
    password="<password>"
    mail.port="25"
    mail.debug="true"/>

Nota clasica.png Optional can be used mail.user="<username>" and mail.password="<password>" parameters

Gmail example

<Resource name="mail/OpenKM" auth="Container" type="javax.mail.Session"
    mail.transport.protocol="smtp"
    mail.smtp.auth="true"
    mail.smtp.host="smtp.gmail.com"
    mail.smtp.port="465"
    mail.smtp.user="<username>"
    password="<password>"
    mail.smtp.from="<sender email>"
    mail.smtp.quitwait="false"
    mail.smtp.starttls.enable="true"
    mail.smtp.socketFactory.class="javax.net.ssl.SSLSocketFactory"
    mail.debug="true"/>

Nota clasica.png Use parameter mail.smtp.quitwait="false" if you got some problems during tomcat startup
