^{Originally posted by **torbengb** September 13, 2022} I'm getting this error, "SMTP server details are not configured or are incorrect" and I can't figure out what's wrong. Here's what I have done so far: 1. Linux host 2. running Docker 3. As [per documentation](https://github.com/lukevella/rallly#-quickstart-with-docker), I have cloned the git repo. 4. Edited `docker-compose.yml`: only changed port from `3000` to `8016` due to port in use already. 5. Edited `.env`: ``` NEXT_PUBLIC_BASE_URL=https://doodle.mydomain.tld:8016 #DATABASE_URL=postgres://your-database/db # this is commented out as described in https://github.com/lukevella/rallly#%EF%B8%8F-configuration SECRET_PASSWORD=I-have-replaced-this-password SUPPORT_EMAIL=myname@mydomain.tld SMTP_HOST=smtp.google.com # my domain is under Google Workspace, so I can normally use Gmail's SMTP here. SMTP_PORT=587 SMTP_SECURE=true SMTP_USER=myname@mydomain.tld SMTP_PWD=custom app password from https://myaccount.google.com/apppasswords ``` 6. `docker-compose up -d` ``` Creating rallly_rallly_db_1 ... done Creating rallly_rallly_1 ... done ``` 7. using Portainer to view the log: ``` yarn run v1.22.19 $ /usr/src/app/node_modules/.bin/prisma migrate deploy --schema prisma/schema.prisma Prisma schema loaded from prisma/schema.prisma Datasource "db": PostgreSQL database "db", schema "public" at "rallly_db:5432" 20 migrations found in prisma/migrations No pending migrations to apply. Done in 12.63s. yarn run v1.22.19 $ next start ready - started server on 0.0.0.0:3000, url: http://localhost:3000 SMTP server details are not configured or are incorrect SMTP server details are not configured or are incorrect ``` Yes, that final line is present twice. 8. Kill + remove the container, repeat from step 3, same result again.

Usually port 587 is for TLS so you should set option secure = false If you really want smtp over ssl try to connect on port 465.
