## Problem with SMTP
|
||||
|
||||
If you opt for actual SMTP server (not the local MailHog), you have to have the right environment variables set.
|
||||
|
||||
You can normally populate `SMTP_USERNAME` and `SMTP_PASSWORD` with your usual login and password (you could also create a 'burner' email). Sometimes, there still are problems.
|
||||
|
||||
You can go to your Gmail account settings > security and enable “less secure apps”. This would allow Infisical to use your Gmail to send emails.
|
||||
|
||||
If it still doesn't work, [this](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/72547853/unable-to-send-email-in-c-sharp-less-secure-app-access-not-longer-available/72553362#72553362) should help.
|
||||
|
||||
## `MONGO_URL` issues
|
||||
|
||||
Your `MONGO_URL` should be something like `mongodb://root:example@mongo:27017/?authSource=admin`. If you want to change it (not recommended), you should make sure that you keep this URL in line with `MONGO_USERNAME=root` and `MONGO_PASSWORD=example`.

## Set up environment variables
|
||||
|
||||
Start by creating a .env file at the root of the Infisical directory
|
||||
Start by creating a .env file at the root of the Infisical directory. It's best to start with the provided [`.env.example`](https://github.com/Infisical/infisical/blob/main/.env.example) template containing the necessary envars to fill out your .env file — you only have to modify the SMTP parameters.
|
||||
|
||||
<Warning>
|
||||
The pre-populated environment variable values in the `.env.example` file are meant to be used in development only.
|
||||
You'll want to fill in your own values in production, especially concerning encryption keys, secrets, and SMTP parameters.
|
||||
</Warning>
|
||||
|
||||
Refer to the [environment variable list](https://infisical.com/docs/self-hosting/configuration/envars) for guidance on each envar.
|
||||
|
||||
### Helpful tips for developing with Infisical:
|
||||
|
||||
<Tip>
|
||||
Reference the [environment variable list](https://infisical.com/docs/self-hosting/configuration/envars) and provided [`.env.example`](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Infisical/infisical/main/.env.example) template to fill out your .env file.
|
||||
Use the `ENCRYPTION_KEY`, JWT-secret envars, `MONGO_URL`, `MONGO_USERNAME`, `MONGO_PASSWORD` provided in the `.env.example` file.
|
||||
|
||||
If setting your own values:
|
||||
|
||||
- `ENCRYPTION_KEY` should be a [32-byte random hex](https://www.browserling.com/tools/random-hex)
|
||||
- `MONGO_URL` should take the form: `mongodb://[MONGO_USERNAME]:[MONGO_PASSWORD]@mongo:27017/?authSource=admin`.
|
||||
</Tip>
|
||||
|
||||
### Keys
|
||||
<Tip>
|
||||
Bring and configure your own SMTP server by following our [email configuration guide](https://infisical.com/docs/self-hosting/configuration/email) (we recommend using either SendGrid or Mailgun).
|
||||
|
||||
`ENCRYPTION_KEY`, `JWT_SIGNUP_SECRET`, `JWT_REFRESH_SECRET`, `JWT_AUTH_SECRET`, `JWT_SERVICE_SECRET` values can be generated with this [32-byte random hex generator](https://www.browserling.com/tools/random-hex).
|
||||
|
||||
### Database
|
||||
|
||||
Use to the following `MONGO_URL`, `MONGO_USERNAME`, `MONGO_PASSWORD`, `SITE_URL` values:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
MONGO_URL=mongodb://root:example@mongo:27017/?authSource=admin
|
||||
MONGO_USERNAME=root
|
||||
MONGO_PASSWORD=example
|
||||
|
||||
SITE_URL=http://localhost:8080
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
<Info>
|
||||
If you decide to use your own `MONGO_USERNAME` and `MONGO_PASSWORD`, you'll have to modify `MONGO_URL` to take the form: `mongodb://[MONGO_USERNAME]:[MONGO_PASSWORD]@mongo:27017/?authSource=admin`.
|
||||
</Info>
|
||||
|
||||
### Mailing
|
||||
|
||||
Option 1: Bring your own SMTP server and credentials by filling in `SMTP_HOST`, `SMTP_FROM_ADDRESS`, `SMTP_FROM_NAME`, `SMTP_USERNAME`, and `SMTP_PASSWORD`.
|
||||
<Info>
|
||||
`SMTP_HOST` is set to `smtp.gmail.com` by default. For `SMTP_USERNAME` and `SMTP_PASSWORD`, you'll need an email with 2-step-verification and an [app password](https://support.google.com/mail/answer/185833?hl=en) for it.
|
||||
</Info>
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Option 2: Use the provided (Mailhog) SMTP server and browse emails sent by the backend on `http://localhost:8025`. To use this option, set the following `SMTP_HOST`, `SMTP_PORT`, `SMTP_FROM_NAME`, `SMTP_USERNAME`, `SMTP_PASSWORD` values:
|
||||
Alternatively, you can use the provided development (Mailhog) SMTP server to send and browse emails sent by the backend on http://localhost:8025; to use this option, set the following `SMTP_HOST`, `SMTP_PORT`, `SMTP_FROM_NAME`, `SMTP_USERNAME`, `SMTP_PASSWORD` below.
|
||||
</Tip>
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
SMTP_HOST=smtp-server
|
||||
SMTP_PORT=1025
|
||||
SMTP_FROM_ADDRESS=team@infisical.com
|
||||
SMTP_FROM_NAME=[whatever you like]
|
||||
SMTP_FROM_NAME=Infisical
|
||||
SMTP_USERNAME=team@infisical.com
|
||||
SMTP_PASSWORD=
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
<Warning>
|
||||
Make sure to leave the `SMTP_PASSWORD` blank so the backend can connect to MailHog.
|
||||
If using Mailhog, make sure to leave the `SMTP_PASSWORD` blank so the backend can connect to MailHog.
