FBServer 7 not sending emails for some projects

FinalBuilder Bugs
1

I have a series of project files from FB6 that I've saved in FB7 format for use in the new FB7 server (7.0.0.144).  My main project, which is for automated nightly builds, has a trigger to send an e-mail if the build fails.  This does not work, I get an error in the FBServer log that reads:

Unable to Send Message (Connect)

Socket Error # 10106

This project is able to e-mail correctly when run from the FinalBuilder IDE.  I know that FBServer is configured correctly to send e-mail because my other projects are able to send e-mail from FBServer.  I created a new project that just sends me an e-mail, using the exact same e-mail settings as my project that fails, and it will send e-mail all day with no issues.  I am wondering if the issue might be related to upgrading an FB6 project to FB7 as opposed to creating a new project in FB7.

I'm not sure I understand whether it's FinalBuilder Server or FinalBuilder that is failing to send the email? Both will need to be configured to send email, as they do not share their smtp settings.

FinalBuilder always sends e-mail.

FinalBuilder Server sends e-mail sometimes, per the conditions of my first message.

 I experience the same problem.  SendMail worked in FB6 and works via the FB7 IDE, but not when running under the server.  I get the same Socket error.

Hi Todd

We need more information. Which operating system, what settings do you have on your email action etc. We have not been able to reproduce this here with the little information we have from the original poster.

I suspect this security related, at least this thread on stackoverflow seems to suggest so : http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1554878/why-does-windows-not-allow-winsock-to-be-started-while-impersonating-another-user

I have moved to using PowerShell to send e-mail due to the issues with the FinalBuilder Server. What would you like from me to help address this issue?
