Troubleshooting outbound email

[lonecrow]

I managed to get inbound email working via Gmail by using sugarcrm.log and walking through the code line by line until I found the problem. Now I am working on outbound email. When I click send I get a blank screen as a response. SugarCRM has stopped processing without displaying any error message (same issue I had with inbound email).

When I look in sugarCRM.log these are the last lines written to the log.

06/16/07 18:46:07,602 [3556] DEBUG SugarCRM - Email sending ---------------------
06/16/07 18:46:07,603 [3556] DEBUG SugarCRM - Localization: translating [ Test Outbound via Gmail ] into ISO-8859-1
06/16/07 18:46:07,603 [3556] DEBUG SugarCRM - Localization: translating [ ] into ISO-8859-1
06/16/07 18:46:07,604 [3556] DEBUG SugarCRM - Localization: translating [ Test Outbound via Gmail ] into ISO-8859-1

Which PHP files are these debug lines in? I have searched for portions of these strings within files in the sugarCRM directory and come up empty.

Any ideas what file contain the debug line:
SugarCRM - Email sending ---------------------

Thanks for any help.

btw: I am using tls://smtp.gmail.com as my outbound server.

When I searched for those strings using windows explorer on the server it came back empty but when I used my editor on my dev machine I found them no problem \modules\emails\email.php

If I managed to get SugarCRM running on IIS to send via Gmail I'll make sure to post what I did because I know I amnot the only one with this problem

OK So the last line written in the SugarCRM.log is my 'finished translating' line.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
//// I18N TRANSLATION
$mail->prepForOutbound();
//// END I18N TRANSLATION
///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

$GLOBALS['log']->debug('Finished translating');
if($mail->Send()) {

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

So I set up these debug lines in the send function

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
function send() {
global $mod_strings;
global $current_user;
global $sugar_config;
global $locale;

$GLOBALS['log']->debug('About to set up sugarPHPMailer object');

$mail = new SugarPHPMailer();

$GLOBALS['log']->debug('$mail object set up');
------------------------------------------------------------------------------


So the funny thing is that neither of those debug lines gets written to the sugarCRM.log file. If I am understanding correctly the Send() function returns a boolean and the "if($mail->Send()) {" line calls that function.

If it had troubles instansiating the sugarPHPMailer I would at least expect to see my "About to set up object" ddebug line.


Any ideas? Could it be crashing on setting up the globals? Can I insert a debug line BEFOR the global declarations?
