Hi all ! i’ve a Debian12 VM with centreon 24.10 installed on.

I had follow this : https://docs.centreon.com/fr/docs/administration/postfix/ step by step and changed all informations, but this doesn’t work 😞 !

i tryed to check in var/log/maillog ( or mail.log ) but it doesnt exist, i don’t find this file anyway…

What did i do wrong

PS: when i created my Debian12 VM, i forget to do the partitionning LVM , maybe that can be the problem why i can’t find this file : mail.log …

 

Did you have some ideas? or did i need to recreate a Debian VM?

Hi @tsukon this procedure is to configure postfix with a Gmail account, isn’t it?


Hi ​@Laurent  yes ! but i can do the same with gmail account no? 

Or this is maybe better to don’t use an Relayhost like gmail?

We can’t send any email from localhost debian VM to an external email than outlook or anythink?


Hello ​@tsuko have you tried with an app password?

hi ​@ponchoh ! that work when i use an gmail account but i don’t wnt to use an relayhost. My responsable prefer my Server Centreon send directly the notification (lik email from user@centreon-srv.net or user@localhost ) did you understand ! sorry if my not precise ^^


Hello ​@tsuko,

  • do you have an email server setup?
  • smtp?
  • config with your allowed network?
  • what have you tried?

Hi ​@ponchoh !

 yes my company has its own domain which is  hosted by an external service provider. But we can access to manage it if we want.


@tsuko 

can you use your provider for smtp? what have you tried?
