John,
I've seen similar behavior with email from email providers.  Has your provider disabled basic authentication?  

Based on your comment on using port 25 and 26, my best guess would be your email service is now blocking these ports.  Most I work with have forced move to TLS 1.2 at a minimum.

Try using ports 587 (which is default TLS) or 465 - but your connection will need to use TLS - and I don't think UP1.9 supports TLS 1.2 best I can recall. 

Another thing you can try is a command line utility called SWithMail (tbare.com - free).  I've used it to sort out these kind of issues outside of magic to figure out what was wrong.
Good luck,
Charles

Hi,

I need two online-programs to be opened and both be able to use within one runtime session.

Example: Left monitor table with information, right table to input this content to other table. Left screen need to be scrolled and button use, while right screen needs to be handle as well.
Can this be done with Magic v9.4 within the same session or do I have to open a second runtime session (this is not an option for me, so I hope the first option will be possible)?

Kind regards,
André

John,

I've no experience with the MailConnect() function, nor with any of uniPaaS' built-in email functions. That said, I noticed a function MailError() that appears to me to be a good first step, that is, pass that (-5) error code to MailError() and reap a returned string message that may (or may not) assist in your diagnosis.

Hi All

 

I am adding some email functionality to an app in UniPaas 1.9i and all has been going fine and my apps have been sending emails with attachments as they should.  Then, suddenly, for no apparent reason, my MailConnect is timing out and returning error code -5.

 

I;ve tried, rebooting laptop, router to no avail.

 

What does error -5 mean and what is a possible solution.

 

I haven’t changed and mail settings because they are all set in logical names.

 

Regards

 

John

Steve,

I believe so. Our application is now in XPA 3.1 but I think the component I was using was in place while it was still in uniPaaS.

1. Define a .NET Virtual (for example variable BA 2. Object type:
System.Windows.Forms.WebBrowser 3. Define another virtual tyep Alpha
field as the URL you want to display in the browser. This will be
variable BB 4. Initiate a Evaluate Expression: BA.Navigate(BB). Probably do this in Task Prefix so the browser has something to show when it's displayed. You can always update the URL variable's content and then refresh the display.

The above will use a version of IE (that you can designate). More

I also have an old post about how to set the registry values to change
the version of a browser that WebBrowser will use

CefSharp is also mentioned here but I have not worked with it and don't know if it works with uniPaaS.

Friends,

With the impending demise of Internet Explorer 11, I have a need to replace an on-screen, ActiveX Web Browser Form Control with something else, preferably Chrome- or Edge-based.

My question is, does anyone know if a uniPaaS Online task's Form is able to host a dotNET web browser control?
