Question

I'm having problems setting up outlook as an smtp server for bitwarden.

Posted July 14, 2020 1.4k views

Bitwarden admin page throws a HTTP ERROR 500 error.
nothing is showing in the log under /bwdata/logs/api/Api
No email turns up.
globalSettingsmailsmtphost=smtp.office365.com
globalSettingsmailsmtptrustServer=true : tried with and without
globalSettingsmailsmtpport=587
globalSettingsmailsmtpssl=true
globalSettingsmailsmtpusername=xx@mydomain.com
globalSettingsmailsmtppassword=xx
globalSettings__disableUserRegistration=true

restarted server on each change
added a record to spf record for my exchange online server. I think it uses tls but I’m not sure BW does.

Any suggestions?

Hi @macewindu,

Firstly, I would assume you are hosting it on your droplet and not using the app from the browser, correct?

If yes, please make sure you have your port 587 actually allowed to output connections. You can directly enable it from your droplet using IPTABLES:

sudo iptables -A OUTPUT -p tcp --sport 587 -m conntrack --ctstate ESTABLISHED -j ACCEPT
sudo iptables -A OUTPUT -p tcp --dport 587 -m conntrack --ctstate NEW,ESTABLISHED -j ACCEPT

Regards,

    Hi, Thanks for the reply. I opened the ports. Still getting This page isn’t working. Http error 500 on https://domain/admin/login after I submit my email address. Ive added my address to the list that have access to the admin page.

    It was a DO one click install for Bitwarden. The $100 cash back one, which I don’t seem to have received , but that a matter for later.

    Any other suggestions?

      Hi @macewindu,

      Usually an 500 Http error suggests some PHP error. Can you confirm if you have set error logging and if something is being written there once the error is being generated?
