Unable to do EmailSetup with SMTP in rstudio connect about rstudio-docker-products HOT 1 CLOSED

Interesting - I thought I wrote up a response to this, but I must have lost it / it must have gotten misplaced.

A couple of things:

• This looks like an issue configuring RStudio Connect. I would recommend reaching out to our support team ([email protected]) or your CS representative for these types of issues, as they are not related to the docker images themselves
• Another avenue for these types of informal discussions is the RStudio Community: https://community.rstudio.com/c/r-admin/rstudio-connect/27
• This error message suggests that your config file is longer than shown here, and says that the "DataDir" and "Address" fields cannot be put under the [SMTP] header. I suspect your whole configuration file looks like the following:

[Server]
Address = https://myserver.com
EmailProvider = SMTP
SenderEmail =
EmailSubjectPrefix = Rstudio
ViewerKiosk = false
HideEmailAddresses = false
MailAll = false

[SMTP]
Host =
Port = 587
SSL = true
User =
Password =



 




DataDir = somevalue
Address = somevalue

If you remove those last two lines, things should work! You can also check the /etc/rstudio-connect/rstudio-connect-migration.gcfg file to see if it has any entries that are causing trouble.
