Hello. Im trying to set up passbolt using [this docker setup](https://github.com/passbolt/passbolt_docker). Everything works except for email sending via SMTP, thus users cannot register to my passbolt instance. Since I made some changes in the docker-compose file to fit my infrastructure details, I’ll post it here. The idea is to run passbolt with a google cloud database, besides nginx and certbot. ### System Information #### OS Distro: Ubuntu 20.04 LTS x86\_64 Host: Google Compute Engine Kernel: 5.4.0-1019-gcp Shell: bash 5.0.16 CPU: Intel Xeon (1) @ 2.300GHz Memory: 392MiB / 3683MiB ### Database MYSQL 5.7 on Gcloud ### Web server Its a docker image of nginx: `nginx:1.19.1-alpine` ### Logs > **Healthcheck** > > * * * > > ## Healthcheck shell… > > Environment > > [PASS] PHP version 7.3.19. > [PASS] PCRE compiled with unicode support. > [PASS] The temporary directory and its content are writable. > [PASS] The public image directory and its content are writable. > [PASS] The logs directory and its content are writable. > [PASS] GD or Imagick extension is installed. > [PASS] Intl extension is installed. > [PASS] Mbstring extension is installed. > > Config files > > [PASS] The application config file is present > [WARN] The passbolt config file is missing in /var/www/passbolt/config/ > [HELP] Copy /var/www/passbolt/config/passbolt.php.default to /var/www/passbolt/config/passbolt.php > [HELP] The passbolt config file is not required if passbolt is configured with environment variables > > Core config > > [PASS] Debug mode is off. > [PASS] Cache is working. > [PASS] Unique value set for security.salt > [PASS] Full base url is set to [https://passbolt-stg.taqtile.dev](https://passbolt-stg.taqtile.dev) > [PASS] App.fullBaseUrl validation OK. > [PASS] /healthcheck/status is reachable. > > SSL Certificate > > [PASS] SSL peer certificate validates > [PASS] Hostname is matching in SSL certificate. > [PASS] Not using a self-signed certificate > > Database > > [PASS] The application is able to connect to the database > [PASS] 23 tables found > [PASS] Some default content is present > [PASS] The database schema up to date. > > GPG Configuration > > [PASS] PHP GPG Module is installed and loaded. > [PASS] The environment variable GNUPGHOME is set to /home/www-data/.gnupg. > [PASS] The directory /home/www-data/.gnupg containing the keyring is writable by the webserver user. > [PASS] The server gpg key is not the default one > [PASS] The public key file is defined in config/passbolt.php and readable. > [PASS] The private key file is defined in config/passbolt.php and readable. > [PASS] The server key fingerprint matches the one defined in config/passbolt.php. > [PASS] The server public key defined in the config/passbolt.php (or environment variables) is in the keyring. > [PASS] There is a valid email id defined for the server key. > [PASS] The public key can be used to encrypt a message. > [PASS] The private key can be used to sign a message. > [PASS] The public and private keys can be used to encrypt and sign a message. > [PASS] The private key can be used to decrypt a message. > [PASS] The private key can be used to decrypt and verify a message. > [PASS] The public key can be used to verify a signature. > > Application configuration > > [PASS] Using latest passbolt version (2.13.1). > [PASS] Passbolt is configured to force SSL use. > [PASS] App.fullBaseUrl is set to HTTPS. > [PASS] Selenium API endpoints are disabled. > [PASS] Search engine robots are told not to index content. > [WARN] Registration is open to everyone. > [HELP] Make sure this instance is not publicly available on the internet. > [HELP] Or set passbolt.registration.public to false in config/passbolt.php. > [PASS] Serving the compiled version of the javascript app > [PASS] All email notifications will be sent. > > No error found.

The `send_test_mail` output suggest that `className` its not getting set it right, but I don’t know if this is relevant for a docker setup. Inside the passbolt container, I also tried to create a `config/passbolt.php` file based on `config/passbolt.default.php` with the right values for `EmailTransport.default.className`, but the same result was shown on `send_test_mail` tool. ---
