Now the same question again, hope you understand it now.
Does sending work if you don't use SMTP?
Check settings PHPMAILER_METHOD_MAIL and PHPMAILER_METHOD_SENDMAIL

If i run with
PHPMAILER_METHOD_SENDMAIL i receive this error:
"Could not execute: /usr/sbin/sendmail"
If i run with
PHPMAILER_METHOD_MAIL i receive this:
"Could not instantiate mail function."

Do you have mail or sendmail installed on your system?
Are you able to start mail or sendmail from command line?

Yes, i have installed and configured sendmail.
I can send emails via command line between users.
Edit:
I changed config_inc.php to
$g_phpMailer_method = PHPMAILER_METHOD_SENDMAIL and received this error
"Could not execute: /usr/sbin/sendmail"
By default sendmail configuration files are located at /etc/mail
How can I change the mantis to point to the folder /etc/mail instead /usr/sbin/sendmail?

In my maillog i have this
"localhost sendmail[32626]: NOQUEUE: SYSERR(apache): can not chdir(/var/spool/clientmqueue/): Permission denied"
I followed this link:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1280 ... send-email, I saw the permissions and they are ok.
Only I didn't do the part of SELinux, i don't know what it does and it seems risky. Whenever I change my SELinux, my VM is unbootable.

Sorry for double post but i solved the problem.
I did this:
Code: Select all
#to see Selinux Booleans
getsebool -a | grep mail
and httpd is not allowed to use sendmail.
Code: Select all
#allow_postfix_local_write_mail_spool --> on
#httpd_can_sendmail --> off
#logging_syslogd_can_sendmail --> off
So I used this command:
Code: Select all
setsebool -P httpd_can_sendmail on
Tested and i received all the emails.
Thanks for the support, no doubt that was a big help.
