As @Randy Calvert mentioned, AWS SES is one of the lightest and cheapest transactional email services available. I would highly suggest it with the volume of email you are sending. They also have one of the highest reputations which only helps your email deliverability. Our instructions are very detailed and should be easy to set up. If you have any questions, just reach out and we’ll get it solved for you. It’s a set it, and forget it type of solution.

From what I can see from the logs, it is trying to look for files/directories in the vendor folder and it is receiving a not found error. This vendor folder contains all the crucial dependencies needed to run the application. I have double-checked the bundle to make sure the files are present and they are. Can you check your server and see if the files that are named in the log file you provided are indeed present? Example: /home/******/public_html/applications/awsses/sources/vendor/aws/aws-sdk-php/

@beats23 are you using PHP-FPM as well?

Can you try with a clean vanilla install not behind cloudflare? What server infrastructure are you using?

Please read the previous posts. It’s been addressed and waiting for approval.

An update has been submitted that addresses the backwards compatibility issue. Please update as soon as possible when it releases.

We know. Just looked at the composer.lock and one small package requires PHP 8.1. Will add a PHP 7.4 composer package requirement and update the dependencies to make sure it doesn’t happen again.

Correct. If you are not running PHP 8.1, do not upgrade to the newest version. Stay on your current version. There is a backwards compatibility issue with the AWS SDK. We’ll see if we can work around it. If not, we will add a system requirement to the app for PHP version.

Yes, it has always been designed to run on CIC. However, I can’t test against CIC as I do not have a CIC service to use to test. We only use an on premise license to test against.

A new version has been submitted with support for 4.7.2 and PHP 8.1. The AWS SDK was also updated which added support for PHP 8. Previously did not support PHP 8.

Yeah definitely no support for PHP 8.2 as Invision does not even support that.

Thanks Randy, glad to hear. I imagine there won’t be many if any issues.

We have no tested it against 4.7.2. We hope to have it all complete this weekend.

Thank you for letting us know. When 4.7.2 releases we will be sure to make sure to test against it. Until then we don’t base changes off betas as they are subject to change and inherently full of errors anyways.

Can you check your PHP logs? You may also enable display_errors in your PHP settings. If you are getting just a white screen, my suspicion is an error is being thrown.

Any errors being thrown? Are you receiving emails, just not being logged? Did it work for you on 4.7.0? We did test it with 4.7 and everything was functioning correctly.

Update has been submitted and approved.

Update submitted and waiting for approval.

I am not aware of this issue. Can you elaborate or send me a PM? Thanks. @Stuart Silvester just saw your email. Thanks.

Thanks for bringing this up. Will get this addressed.

Thanks so much for the review! I’m glad it’s providing so much help to your community!

Every time SES recognizes a bounce, it will send a notification to your community utilizing the API. You can then choose what is done when one is encountered. There is a list of different options include setting their status so they no longer receive emails.

Great suggestion. As for the error, you need to have the IMAP PHP extension enabled. https://phpadvices.com/install-or-enable-imap-extension-in-php/

You can also try out the following app to get rid of SMTP and use the AWS SES API for better performance and less impact on your server.

Most likely a spam bot without an account, posting a message, and then being sent the “continue registering…” email to the fake email address. Happens a lot! Also the application will properly handle the bounce if the email is not an actual member account!
