Solution
Workaround
To manually set the email settings in postgres, follow these steps:
1) SSH to the master and elevate to root
2) Modify the following INSERT statement to replace 'mail.test.local' and '25' with your own SMTP server and port
psql -p 5002 cb -c "INSERT INTO communication_settings_history (timestamp,mail_server_type,smtp_server,smtp_port,smtp_connection_type,use_proxy,enabled,statistics,community_participation,smtp_password,smtp_username) VALUES (current_timestamp,'own','mail.test.local','25','insecure',false,true,true,false,'','');" |
