sending emails doesn't seem to work?
-
First: thanks for having Pretix in the Appstore!
I'm currently exploring the app and its capabilities and noticed that emails are not sent?
The configured email on app-level is an existing address and mailbox, this is the error on trying to send.
As far as I can see it tries to use the email smtp server at the domain of the app itself reserveer.REDACTED.xx instead of my.REDACTED.xx?

The mailing for the Pretix should be autoconfigured on every startup and is placed in the
/run/pretix/pretix.cfgfile.
Can you confirm that in that file it is correct?Even if these values are correct it seems the mail is not sent.
I have reproduced this issue and I am now looking into it. -
I think I see the problem here.
The task worker namedceleryis configured in/run/pretix/pretix.cfgto useredisas thebackendandbrokerbut somehow,celerystill wants to useAMQP server (e.g. RabbitMQ)which does not exist and fails.This might be a
celeryrelated issue similar to https://github.com/celery/celery/issues/6370EDIT:
This was a wild goose chase and was some based on a log message I thought saw once.
But did not lead to anything. -

Hello @imc67
Unfortunately, I have not yet discorded the solution.I hope you'll find the cause and solution soon, now the app is totally useless and that's a pity for the potential users but also for the person who took time to get it in the Appstore.

I would also really like to use Pretix for a project which would be live in a few weeks, but cannot do so if this is not resolved very soon. I appreciate that this app is listed as unstable, but the inability to send emails unfortunately makes it unusable. I do hope this can be fixed as I know a lot of people have been waiting for Pretix to be added to the AppStore for a long time.

Hello @ccfu @imc67 I found the issue and the app will receive an update soon.
YES!!! After the update it works!
Thanks
