Hello, did you have any solution ? I have excatly the same message. Except that it is my first attempt to use this extension.
Hi,
If you are using Php 7 or php 5.6.x you can add below code to line 398 -> http://jmp.sh/vW9JgCJ
$mail->smtpConnect([
'ssl' => [
'verify_peer' => false,
'verify_peer_name' => false,
'allow_self_signed' => true
]
]);
This will disable certificate check.
added these lines to easy-wp-smtp.php But then I got “OpenSSL Error messages: error:14090086:SSL routines:SSL3_GET_SERVER_CERTIFICATE:certificate verify failed”
I have no idea what to do next to solve the problem.
The problem occurs on my website (using wamp windows 10) but not on my production site. Problem solved on production site. Thank you for the fix. Hopefully they will change the plugin to solve the problem for the future.
That helped when sending a test email but didn’t help when using something like contact form 7. Just errors out. Why did this start happening out of nowhere?
Hi,
thanks for your reply!
I headed back to PHP 5.5 – now it is working again…
I will try it on our DEV Site and will report.
Thanks!
I have a number of sites (quite a lot) that are having this issue.
Can we please have an update on this asap.
Please please please.
Ok, enabling TLS and implementing the correct port has worked for me!
Enabling SSL was causing the connect failure error.
Just need to re-configure all of the sites using this plugin now!
(php version 5.6.29 installed)
Hello, I found the issue : it was the smtp email account authorization the problem.
