SMTP Apex Settings/APEX_MAIL.SEND - TIMEOUT: ORA-29278

apthorn1864Oct 21 2019 — edited Oct 22 2019

Good Afternoon All.

I recently tried changed my SMTP server to a new third party. I was previously using Go Daddy's SMTP service and it was working fine. This new company is able to handle more traffic but i cant get apex to send properly. I keep getting ORA-29278: SMTP transient error: 421 Timeout - closing connection.

Here are my apex instance settings

Here is my environment:

Oracle 18c

Apex 19.1

CentOS 7

ORDS setup with Apache/Tomcat

Here is what I am sure of:

-I have the firewall opened on 2525

-these values do match the values given from the third party

-I have ACL connect privs granted to apex_190100

-I can successfully send a test email with these same settings via smtper.net.

-I can also successfully send a test email just within the linux environment via echo "Your message" | mail -v -s "Message Subject" xxxxxxx@gmail.com

using these settings in the config file:

set smtp=smtp-pulse.com:2525

set smtp-auth=login

set from=notification-no-reply@xxxxxxxxxx.com

set smtp-auth-user=xxxxxxxx@gmail.com

set smtp-auth-password=xxxxxxxxxx

So this seems to be an oracle/apex thing. Does anyone have any idea why I cant send emails via Apex_Mail.Send???

Any help or suggestions is greatly appreciated
