EMAIL NOTIFICATION

Post by krisna »

Hi,

When a sub sequence fails I have to send a mail for that iam using email notification activity. Provided necessary parameters like server name, senders and recievers mail ids. But i am not receiving any mails. Do I have to configure SMTP server at UNIX SERVER. If I have to configure what are the things need to be configured.
Thanks in advance

Someone does, yes. That would typically be whomever administers that system. Ask your SysAdmin.

In DS Server there is a file called dstemplate.txt (not the exact name) which also needs to be updated

You can search for 'dssendmail_template.txt' in DS Server

Needs to be updated? No, not typically. Can be, sure, but generally works fine out of the box on UNIX provided sendmail is alive and working on the box.
