PEAR Mail unable to connect to Gmail SMTP, failed to connect to socket

由 扶醉桌前 提交于 2019-11-28 11:56:34

The "Use the Gmail SMTP Server" section of this guide says you need to enable "Less secure apps".

Your host configuration shouldn't contain the protocol. The reason it's failing is because it's probably trying to perform a DNS Lookup on ssl://smtp.gmail.com and failing.

Change

'host' => 'ssl://smtp.gmail.com',

to

'host' => 'smtp.gmail.com',

Few debugging steps :

1. check phpinfo

I recommend checking phpinfo() to check whether all modules are enabled. Check for mail, fsocketopen.

2. Enable debug flag

Enable debug flag to check exactly what's the problem. Like below. 

$smtp = Mail::factory('smtp', array(
        'host' => 'ssl://smtp.gmail.com',
        'port' => '465',
        'auth' => true,
        'debug' => true,
        'pipelining' => true,
        'username' => 'xxx@gmail.com',
        'password' => 'xxx'
    ));

After running above code on my machine I got follow response. Issue can be different from yours. But debug helped me. As I have 2FA enabled, it gave me error. And I got a mail also, that my login has been blocked.

Update:

Your issue looks like PHP is not even able to connect to gmail server.

Your code is correct

I tried to test my gmail account. Mail sending was successful.

Check your socket connection

<?php

error_reporting(E_ALL);

var_dump(fsockopen("ssl://smtp.gmail.com", 465, $errno, $errstr));
var_dump($errno);
var_dump($errstr);

resource(4) of type (stream)

int(0)

string(0) ""

When something fail and we don't know the cause we have to do debugging. So here instead of putting an answer I am requesting you to execute some tests

  1. confirm system connectivity with internet: Open cmd terminal and type

    ping smtp.gmail.com

  2. confirm firewall: Enter following in cmd terminal

    telnet smtp.gmail.com 465

  3. confirm php setup: enter php -a at cmd terminal and on php prompt execute (copy / paste and then press enter) following code.

    $result = fsockopen('ssl://smtp.gmail.com', 465, $error_no, $error_message, 5);
if ($result === false) {
  echo "error no: $error_no error message: $error_message";
  echo print_r($result, true);
} else {
  echo 'success';
}

  4. confirm Pear Mail library and Gmail SMTP access: again on cmd and php prompt php -a execute your own code (as you posted in this thread)

And lets know where it breaks, and what is the error. Only after that we can help

Been Kyung-yoong is the only person to have made a meaningful contribution to solving the problem so far (+1 Been!). I can confirm his result. And I would recommend you try the same. You are currently trying to debug a rather complex stack of components:

Been is doing your job for you - as the person posting the question - should be creating a Minimal, Complete, and Verifiable example

This will hopefully also provide more meaningful diagnostic information.

The most likely reasons for this to be failing are:

  • the host you are running this on cannot route outgoing connections to the internet (but since you seem to be using a desktop PC, I would think you might have noticed this by now)
  • the code is running within a security sandbox (but MSWindows doesn't really have such things)
  • the host is unable to resolve the hostname (see first point about routing)
  • the host is able to connect but unable to verify the certificate

Hence you might consider this more elaborate implementation of a test script:

 <?php

 error_reporting(E_ALL);

 print "DNS\n";
 var_dump(getmxrr('gmail.com',$result));
 var_dump($result);
 $use_ip=gethostbyname($result[0]);
 print "IPV4 address = $use_ip\n";

 print "\nIf you've got this far without errors then problem is with your SSL config\n";
 $calocns=openssl_get_cert_locations();
 if (count($calocns)) {
     print "Check you've got your cacerts deployed in one of the following locations\n";
     foreach ($calocns as $k=>$v) print "$k = $v\n";
 } else {
     print "You've not configured your openssl installation on this host\n";
 }

 print "\nIf all good so far, then this bit should work....\n";
 print "fsockopen\n";
 var_dump(fsockopen("ssl://smtp.gmail.com", 465, $errno, $errstr, 3.0));
 var_dump($errno);
 var_dump($errstr);

Which should give you a response like this:

 DNS
 bool(true)
 array(5) {
   [0]=>
   string(31) "alt1.gmail-smtp-in.l.google.com"
   [1]=>
   string(31) "alt2.gmail-smtp-in.l.google.com"
   [2]=>
   string(31) "alt4.gmail-smtp-in.l.google.com"
   [3]=>
   string(26) "gmail-smtp-in.l.google.com"
   [4]=>
   string(31) "alt3.gmail-smtp-in.l.google.com"
 }
 IPV4 address = 74.125.131.26

 If you've got this far without errors then problem is with your SSL config
 Check you've got your cacerts deployed in one of the following locations
 default_cert_file = /usr/lib/ssl/cert.pem
 default_cert_file_env = SSL_CERT_FILE
 default_cert_dir = /usr/lib/ssl/certs
 default_cert_dir_env = SSL_CERT_DIR
 default_private_dir = /usr/lib/ssl/private
 default_default_cert_area = /usr/lib/ssl
 ini_cafile =
 ini_capath =

 If all good so far, then this bit should work....
 fsockopen
 resource(4) of type (stream)
 int(0)
 string(0) ""

Given that we can't replicate your error we can't give a definitive answer what the problem is - but my guess would be that you haven't configure openSSL.

Before I begin, let me preface this that there are many possibly solutions and outcomes between your server and the google server, so these may or may not work for different people.

1) SMTP is not very secure, so Google may be rejecting your request. I had this problem 6 months ago and the solution was enabling insecure apps under 'myaccount.google.com'

2) If that doesn't work for you then you may consider switching protocols.

from

'host' => 'ssl://smtp.gmail.com',

to

'host' => 'tls://smtp.gmail.com:587';

In PHP 5.3, the tip given by others about "less secure apps," that need to be activated when logged into your Google Gmail account, solved all my problems.

In PHP 7.2 I had to do more: setting 'auth' to PLAIN and then add "verify_peer" and verify_peer_name for ssl socket_options like this:

$mail= Mail::factory('smtp', array('host' => 'ssl://smtp.gmail.com',
                                   'port' => '465',
                                   'auth' => 'PLAIN',
                                   'socket_options' => array('ssl' => array('verify_peer' => false,
                                                                            'verify_peer_name' => false)),
                                   'username' => 'someAccount@gmail.com',
                                   'password' => 'myPassword'
));
