I'm currently rewriting a client's web application using cakephp. One of
the pages requires sending the data in a form to the company in an email.
I'm having problems with this in my development environment:
- Ubuntu 14.10
- Apache2/PHP with all the normal libraries like lib_php, mod_rewrite,
etc
- PHP 5.5
- CakePHP 2.5.4
After poking about a bit on the web, I've seen that I have to load
lib_openssl and that I should include the following line in my php.ini
file. So in /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini I've added the recommended line to
the Dynamic Extensions section:
extension=php_openssl.so
I'm not sure if this is correct because Ubuntu includes php_openssl via gnutls.
However, I don't know how to test this.
I've created an email.php file under app/Config with the following class
definition:
class EmailConfig {
public $gmail = array(
'host' => 'ssl://smtp.gmail.com',
'port' => 465,
'username' => '[email protected]',
'password' => 'mypassword',
'transport' => 'Smtp',
);
}
The username and password are copied from Thunderbird, so should be OK.
Finally, I set up a test page under app/View/Pages, called email-tester.ctp
containing the code:
<?php
App::uses('CakeEmail', 'Network/Email');
$Email = new CakeEmail();
$Email->from(array('[email protected]' => 'My Gmail Address'))
->to('[email protected]')
->subject('About')
->send('My message');
?>
<p>Email sent...</p>
When I try to open this page at localhost/myproject/pages/email-tester I get an
error message as follows:
*Error: * An Internal Error Has Occurred.

If anyone can decode this for me, or give me some idea as to what I should try
next, I'd be very grateful.
Thanks in advance
