It’s a module that needs to be compiled into your php installation.  That’s something your host will need to help with or if you have access to the server yourself, something you add to your PHP compile. 

If you are on a typical shared hosting environment, you can usually just enable the extension in your web hosting control panel such as cPanel or Plesk. 

If you are on a VPS or dedicated server, you may have access to WHM.

If not, you’ll need to get ahold of a SysAdmin who can enable it for you.

Thanks!  My Site is hosted by Invision, so I’ll reach out to an admin.

Just FYI, Invision Community in the Cloud does not support this feature. Tech Support says the marketplace description does not say this is required.  🤷🏻‍♂️

Gotcha. Are you saying that if I said it was required, they would enable it for you? It technically is not required for the app to function - it is used to just decode the email headers and help display that information in your logs.

Not sure, but it's not critical.  I just thought seeing the headers would help me diagnose email issues...

Hello!

This app stopped working with the last Invision Community Upgrade. Removing and reinstalling doesn't fix it. What is the future of this app with the upcoming Marketplace closure?

Thanks,
Scotty

Hi Scotty, the app has not been tested against the latest release. Can you rollback to the previous?

At this time, we are unclear what the future is. With the unknowing of how Invision 5 will look under the hood, we can’t possibly tell if the app will need to be ported to the new version, or even needed at all. We’ll have to wait till it’s out to make those determinations.

No plans to bring SES to V5 (or V6 😆).

Attempted removing and re-installing the app.  Still no joy.  Apparently whatever hook it uses to override the default email method no longer works under the latest release. (Invision Community v4.7.13)

Just curious… has anyone gotten it to work correctly with v4.713?

Could it be user error on my part?  Do I need to try and uninstall / reinstall again??

(In the interim I’m using SES via SMTP, but I’m missing the features of this app!)

I just fired up my development environment on 4.7.13 using PHP 8.1.20 and have no issues sending email. I checked the release logs for 4.7.13 and it doesnt appear theyve changed anything to the way they send email. Can you verify you have no errors? What PHP version are you running? Try disabling all other apps/plugins and try again.

Will do and report back.

Ok, removed and reinstalled.  Still won't work.  Wondering if maybe I need to generate new Access & Secret keys?

Will try that and see what happens...

You can login to AWS go to the IAM section and see when they were last used - if they’re being used at all.

Ok, original access key was last used 18 days ago (day Invision CIC update was applied to my site)

New Access Key 2 created today, loaded into AWS, send test email but it says "never used".

- I removed all other third party apps and customizations from my site. (It's just running the basic Invsion CIC installed apps)

- Reinstalled AWS SES w/bounce Management and tried new "Key 2".  No joy.

- Double-checked installation instructions and AWS SES setup, and everything looks correct to me. 😐

I'm stumped.

Hmm I wonder if it has to due with using CIC. I’m sure they have CIC specific settings to use whoever they use to send emails. 

Nothing in logs? Are you able to enable to cURL/HTTP logs? I know you can on premise. This would allow us to see the app calling the API.

I can't see the cURL/HTTP logs (or I don't know how...)  All I can see are the hooks:

Where do we download this plugin in the future?
Once the marketplace is down?
Will it still get maintained on your website?

We are working on a way to continue its support. It will be available via an online store. We’ll post the instructions/details to this thread when it is ready.
