I am trying to send generated test results via mail. I am able to see the summary of test cases generated at jenkins ui at http://<URL>:8080/job/<JOB_NAME>/<BUILD_NUMBER>/testReport/. How ever I want to send this in email, but, unable to find any solution for this. Does anyone knows how to do that??
you can use "Editable Email Notification" plugin and attached the build logs

I'm using the Jenkins Email Extension to send automated build emails, and about 1/4th of the time, it just simply will not send.
I am getting the expected output of
Email was triggered for: Success
Sending email for trigger: Success
Sending email to: emailaddress#example.com anotheremailaddress#example.com
Finished: SUCCESS
But it doesn't send the email. This is completely random. No matter what time, what build, or the list of recipients, it just pretends to send the email but doesn't roughly 1/4th of the time.
Are there additional logs for this extension somewhere? Because other than "Sending email to:" in the regular build logs, it doesn't actually give any confirmation that an email was really sent.
Dunno how you've got the email extension configured, but what I would suggest is spinning up a postfix relay on the server that Jenkins is running on, and configure the email extension to use "localhost". The reason is that then you would get log messages on the server that would show you if Jenkins is actually trying to send the emails or not. It might not be jenkins, it might be something else.
We used our own custom action to send mail that once the automation has been started from Final builder. Now am using Jenkins. As long as i have searched, i found that we can send mail about Jenkins job success or failure at the end of Job. Is there any possible to send mail at the beginning of Jenkins job started? If so, what plugin do i need to use for it? Please help me on this.
You can use Email Extension plugin.
To configure see the article How to send Email at every build with Jenkins. After configuring the settings follow these steps:
Select Add post-build action
Choose Editable Email Notification
In Project Recipient List you can use either default list or recipient's e-mail address
Select Avanced Settings...
Select Add Trigger and choose Before Build
That's it.
I have unclear situation with email notification. When email triggering from job, I get "MessagingException message: 535 5.7.3 Authentication unsuccessful", but when I go to Manage jenkins -> configure system -> E-mail Notification, and run "Test configuration by sending test e-mail" I get "Email was successfully sent" and email to mail box. "E-mail Notification" and "Extended E-mail Notification" using the same SMTP server, and 2 days ago all working good. I'm at a loss... Any ideas, where to look for the problem? Thanks !
Update:
It seems problem precisely with email-ext plugin. Because, I added to my job two notifications section, first usual notification (Send e-mail for every unstable build) and second "Editable email notification", and I get a result: first notification successfuly sent, second says "535 5.7.3 Authentication unsuccessful". Two days ago I change password for email, and made changes to the jenkins settings. But it looks like email-ext plugin try authenticate with old password. May be somebody knows, how to reset plugin settings ?
The reason is that the plugin doesn't update settings... It can be done manually, /var/lib/jenkins/hudson.plugins.emailext.ExtendedEmailPublisher.xml , need update hash in <smtpAuthPassword></smtpAuthPassword> section.
I have Jenkins version 1.480.3 installed on my machine and Email-Extention Plugin 2.30.2.
Test mail from "Manage Jenkins" section works fine. When I add editable email notification to my jobs, I am not receiving it.
Also tried configuring "Triggers" in editable email notification advanced section. That also didn work. Console logs of build shows email has been triggered.
Can someone help me on how to debug this?
At first you have to create a template http://url-to-jenkins/emailexttemplates/.
In the field "Project Recipient List" you can add some emails (comma separated).
You can also insert global variables (Manage Jenkins > Configure System > Global properties) with:
${ENV, var="PATH"}
The "Advanced Settings..." option provides a trigger management, just add "Recipient List" and now you should get some emails by Jenkins.
It appears that, in some version Extended E-mail Notification become own SMTP Server configuration.
So check your configuration under "Manage Jenkins" -> "Configure System" -> "Extended E-mail Notification" and make sure that fields "SMTP Server" and " Default user E-mail suffix" are filled properly.
Make sure also that the configuration is consistent with "Manage Jenkins" -> "Configure System" -> E-mail Notification.
TL;DR
Fill out fields "SMTP Server" and " Default user E-mail suffix" under "Manage Jenkins" -> "Configure System" -> "Extended E-mail Notification"
Wasted few days.
Also tried to Downgrade the email-ext plugin to 2.25
but this Doesn't help.
Test mail sended, In Console Log was Sending email to: mymail
But stiil have no messages.
I found solution that help me....
I used gmail. So I Verifeid my gmail account via cellphone, than I fill Security Settings and gave Access to my account from unreliable sources.
Then I fill that mail into Use SMTP Authentication in Global Settings.
That worked for me :)
Check if you have SSL enabled under SMTP Auth settings. For me, I was able to see a successful trigger, but email was never sent.
I spent hours trying to resolve this issue, I've implemented everything mentioned here, and didn't work for me, the solution that worked for me was to uninstall the plugin and install it again!
Downgrade the email-ext plugin to 2.25
This is a long shot. But chrome was auto filling my SMTP Authentication password, so when I changed any setting and clicked save, the password would also be overwritten.
Hopefully I can save someone else a headache!
Short Description of problem that I was facing:
When I was sending test mail from Manage Jenkins -> Configure System
-> E-mail Notification, I was able to successfully send and receive emails but there is no such option to test email in Extended E-mail
Notification tab
While running a job, when I was sending email in post-build step via E-mail plugin, I was able to successfully send and receive emails but with same settings, I was getting following error on sending mail via Extended E-mail:
MessagingException message: 535-5.7.8 Username and Password not accepted. Learn more at 535 5.7.8 https://support.google.com/mail/?p=BadCredentials
I went almost crazy searching for resolution of this issue.
I tried every resolution mentioned on this page but no success. I even tried downgrading the plugin to 2.25 but I was still getting error when sending email via Extended E-mail plugin. Everywhere on internet also the only solution mentioned to solve this problem was to "Allow less secure apps" and to check if credentials are valid, which in my case were valid since I was able to successfully send mail via normal email plugin.
After struggling for a few days, I finally found the silly thing that was causing this issue.
I had to type-in email ids into each and every box in:
Manage Jenkins -> Configure System -> Extended E-mail Notification.
Copy-pasting email ids or domain names is causing this annoying and time taking issue. So, in case if you fall in such a situation, please make sure you have handwritten email ids in each column and not copy pasted.
Following configurations for "Extended E-mail Notification" worked for me:
Email Extension Plugin : 2.69
SMTP server : smtp.gmail.com
Default user E-mail suffix: <left this blank>
Enabled Use SMTP Authentication
User Name: <email id of account through which email is to be sent>
Password: <Password of account through which email is to be sent>
Advanced Email Properties : <left this blank>
Use SSL : Enabled
SMTP port: 465
Charset: UTF-8
Also, I had enabled less secure apps.
Hope this saves someone's time!!
Sometime after 2.66, if the From field is not set in the project, it doesn't seem to be falling back to the system email address. I believe this ticket is tracking the issue. https://issues.jenkins-ci.org/browse/JENKINS-63522
i performed the following action (after hours and hours of investigation)
and at the end it worked for me.
Unistalled the Extended mail plug in.
Deleted from .jenksins the plugIn (it remains also after Unistall).
Reinstalled the Extended mail plug In and enabled it.
Restart Jenkins.
In the Jenkins Configure System, in the Extended E-mail Notification section,
I set a new credential access to my gmail account
(also the previous credential stored were correct but i preferred to generate a
new one with a different description).
And then... Finally afteer several time on this matter it works for me!.
Try to use Extended E-mail Notification > Enable Debug Mode (selected). It will show you more logs in the Job Run Console section.
In my case, it showed me in the logs that credentials copied from regular email-ext (AK_AWS_SES_CREDENTIALS/****** (Migrated from email-ext username/password)) were not able to connect to AWS SES SMTP service.
I have Jenkins version 1.480.3 installed on my machine and Email-Extension Plugin 2.28.
I have configured my jobs on Jenkins and everything works fine except the final build success email.
I have configured four triggers for Email-Extension plugin:
Failure
Success
Unstable
Before Build
For all the triggers I have enabled "Attach Log" and all works fine except the "Success".
I get the following message on screen:
Email was triggered for: Success
Sending email for trigger: Success
Request made to compress build log
Sending email to: abc#example.com def#example.com
Error sending to the following VALID addresses: abc#example.com def#example.com
Notifying upstream projects of job completion
Capturing build context information.
Finished: SUCCESS
Please could someone help me since I really have no clue how to resolve this.
I had this problem too. In the end, it was because my attached build log was too large! The SMTP server refused to send out the e-mail causing the error message:
Error sending to the following VALID addresses: ...
Disabling the option to attach the build log or fixing the output of my build to not dump so much text fixed the problem:
Looks like a bug in the plugin. Here's a workaround:
In the global settings for the plugin make sure to provide a full e-mail address for System Admin E-mail Address, (e.g. foo#bar.com, not just foo), even though you've specified the Default user E-mail suffix. The address itself can be bogus, though.
For Email, you have to install following plugins.
Email-ext plugin
Email-ext Template Plugin
To provide the configuration, go to the Jenkins System configuration page (Jenkins > Manage Jenkins > Configure System > ” E-mail Notification ” section). You will be able to see the below screen to add email configurations:
SMTP server name : smtp.gmail.com
User name : user_email_id#gmail.com
Password : user_email password
Use SSL : Checked
SMTP Port : 465
Now, configure “Extended E-mail Notification” section. You will be able to see the below screen. Fill the same value as above parameter.
Now, Click on Default triggers at bottom right corner and select success. Apply and save you configuration.
Now Goto your job and Click the Add post-build action drop-down, select E-mail notification option.
Enter the recipient email id in the ‘E-mail Notification’ box and select the checkbox next to the ‘Send e-mail for every unstable build’ option.
Click the ‘Add post-build action’ drop-down and select the ‘Editable Email Notification’ option.
In Project Recipient List , This is a comma separated list (optional whitespace after commas) of email addresses that should receive emails. May contain references to build parameters. To CC or BCC someone instead of putting them in the To list, add cc: or bcc: before the email address (e.g., cc:someone#example.com, bcc:bob#example.com).
In Attachments field, you have to give the path of your binary file (i.e path of your .ipa file like, build/artifacts/IPA-Name.ipa)
Now click on Advanced Settings at bottom right corner. Click on Add trigger and select Success trigger. Click on Add drop down from the success trigger and select Recipient List option. Apply and Save your configuration.
n mac-mini for iOS job configuration, if email is not send and gives you java exception error message then you must turn on less secure apps.
I also had this problem, and it was because I forgot to set the SMTP server (in the plugin section of configuration), but only saw the default SMTP server settings.
My first guess is that the global jenkins email configurations are not set correctly.
Manage Jenkins -> Configure System -> E-mail Notification
This is the default plugin, not the extended one you installed manually. The SMTP server field defaults to localhost, so unless you have an email server setup and running on the same box, this needs to be set.
If that is set then I would try telnet'ing to your email server from your Jenkins server to make sure there is not a connection error.
After days of search for answer, it turns out the gmail has attachment limit for 25 mb, and my output is larger than that.
Check your output size if you met this issue and you are using gmail for mail server.
Refer all above solutions, if it doesn't work. You can try this solution.
Zip file is blocked in Gmail. You should rename your zip file inside script before send it. (Example: file.zip.abcxyz). I solved my problem.
I had the same problem. It turns out that for some reason, Jenkins would not save my "Extended E-mail Notification" SMTP settings. At one point, it did save the setting and the emails started working. Make sure that the bit in red is selected and double-check it after you press Save:
If every thing fails, try restarting jenkins process. That solved for me. Somehow the Jenkins system was unable to load all of the configs without a restart? But give it a try.
Today i faced this issue on a jenkins machine that was sending emails just fine till a couple of weeks ago. I turned it on today and it just wont send emails because of "Error sending to the following VALID addresses"
I tried these steps:
Made sure I am not attaching any log file in the email.
Made sure "System Admin" email has the domain name mentioned.
Jenkins was able to successfully send emails to me when i tried it by "Test configuration by sending test e-mail"
Downgraded my email ext plugin.
None of the above mentioned steps helped.
Finally i replaced my company's SMTP server with the jenkins default server and it worked just fine. Not sure why this has happened, I need to talk to my IT guys and see if they have enabled any new security in SMTP server.
Hope this helps to people who hit this same issue.
Thanks
