ddev: Mailhog doesn't work with TYPO3 ddev configuration

Describe the bug TYPO3 in its basic configuration cannot send test mails due to an error in the sendmail command: /usr/local/bin/mailhog sendmail test@example.org --smtp-addr 127.0.0.1:1025

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

Setup TYPO3
Go to Install Tool (/typo3/install.php)
Go to module Environment
Go to Test Mail Setup
Send a test mail
Error Something went wrong, in the TYPO3 log Uncaught TYPO3 Exception: Unsupported sendmail command flags [/usr/local/bin/mailhog sendmail test@example.org --smtp-addr 127.0.0.1:1025]. Must be one of "-bs" or "-t" but can include additional flags.

Expected behavior It should send an email.

Do you have any custom configuration (nginx, php, mysql) in the .ddev folder? If so, have you tried without them?

In my fresh installed TYPO3 v9 Installation I have to set this 2 settings in “Admin Tools” -> “Settings” -> “Configure Installation-Wide Options” to get the Testmail working: [MAIL][transport] = smtp [MAIL][transport_smtp_server] = localhost:1025

@DavidBruchmann talking about the Topic in the typo3 slack channel, now i know the config files have moved and renamed, reading the doc some Minutes before 😄

And my DDEV Container was 1.21.1 but there was a Release 3 days Ago with TYPO3 v12 Support

So i will try it with the latest release again

Thanks and many thanks to @rfay also for this great solution

talked to @gilbertsoft! We will wait until the TYPO3 v12 will be released as LTS stable version. There might come some more changes in the TYPO3 core.

Workaround for using TYPO3 12.x in DDEV: ddev exec mv typo3conf/AdditionalConfiguration.php typo3conf/system/additional.php

_I also add the link to the cause for the sendmail config “error”: https://github.com/symfony/mailer/blob/6.2/Transport/SendmailTransport.php#L57_

@ecosmox36 just for the case that you use already TYPO3 v12: https://docs.typo3.org/c/typo3/cms-core/main/en-us/Changelog/12.0/Breaking-98319-NewFileLocationForLocalConfigurationphpAndAdditionalConfigurationphp.html

@rfay It was a single case and never ever had problems with it, so in general I can confirm that by default it’s working.

DavidBruchmann on Oct 4, 2022

I just had this issue with TYPO3 v12. For some reason the config values from AdditionalConfiguration.php have been ignored. After adding the values to LocalConfiguration.php everything worked fine. The issue is not that the AdditionalConfiguration.php has been ignored (that might be another issue), but just to check if this hint might be relevant for some reason, i.e. that the file is in the wrong folder.
