Integration with FIXEdge

Execute the following steps to integrate the SMTP adaptor into the FIXEdge:

  1. Open the FIXEdge properties file (FIXEdge.properties by default).
  2. Find the 'TransportLayer.TransportAdapters' property Add the 'TransportLayer.TransportAdapters' property in case or add the property if it does not exist

  3. Set 'TransportLayer.SmtpTA' to the value of the 'TransportLayer.TransportAdapters' property:

    Code Block
    languagexml
    TransportLayer.TransportAdapters = TransportLayer.SmtpTA

    1. If the 'TransportLayer.TransportAdapters' property has a value already, append ',TransportLayer.SmtpTA' to the value:

      Code Block
      languagexml
      TransportLayer.TransportAdapters = <... the list of the other adapters>, TransportLayer.SFSAdaptorDLL,TransportLayer.SmtpTA

  4. Add the 'TransportLayer.SmtpTA.Description' property with the value - SMTP adaptor name:

    Code Block
    languagexml
    TransportLayer.SmtpTA.Description = SMTP Transport Adaptor DLL

  5. Add the 'TransportLayer.SmtpTA.DllName' property with the value - path to the SMTP adaptor dlllibrary:

    Code Block
    languagexml
    TransportLayer.SmtpTA.DllName = bin/SMTPAdaptorDll.dll
    Add the 'TransportLayer.SmtpTA.Type' property with the 'DLL' value:
     Code Block
    TransportLayer.SmtpTA.Type = DLL
  6. Add the set of default properties:
     Code Block
    TransportLayer.SmtpTA.SMTPSessions.DefaultServerName = mail.test_test.com
TransportLayer.SmtpTA.SMTPSessions.DefaultServerPort = 25
TransportLayer.SmtpTA.SMTPSessions.DefaultSendingTimeout = 10
TransportLayer.SmtpTA.SMTPSessions.DefaultConnectionTimeout = 10
TransportLayer.SmtpTA.SMTPSessions.DefaultSmartEmailProcessing = false
  7. Add the 'TransportLayer.SmtpTA.SMTPSessions property SMTPSessions property with value - the set of SMTP client's names:
     Code Block
    TransportLayer.SmtpTA.SMTPSessions = TestSmtpSMTPClient
  8. Add properties for each client, like this:
     Code Block
    TransportLayer.SmtpTA.SMTPSession.TestSmtpSMTPClient.ServerName = mail.test_test.com
TransportLayer.SmtpTA.SMTPSession.TestSmtpSMTPClient.ServerPort = 25
TransportLayer.SmtpTA.SMTPSession.TestSmtpSMTPClient.To = jsg@test_test_btobits.com
TransportLayer.SmtpTA.SMTPSession.TestSmtpSMTPClient.From = jsg@test_test_btobits.com
TransportLayer.SmtpTA.SMTPSession.TestSmtpSMTPClient.CC = 
TransportLayer.SmtpTA.SMTPSession.TestSmtpSMTPClient.BCC = 
  9. Restart the FIXEdge server to apply changes.

Monitoring (view logs)
By default, the SMTP adaptor puts log messages into the FIXEdge log. Execute the following steps to configure the SMTP adaptor logging into a separate file:
...
Problem
Solution
FIXEdge start fails and the FIXEdge log file contains the following record:
[FATAL] 20070215-11:42:25.250 - Transport Layer has failed to initialize: Error loading DLL './/../SMTPAdaptorAddin.dll '. : The specified module could not be found. (126)
FIXEdge is unable to find the SMTP adaptor library file. Make sure that 'TransportLayer.SmtpTA.DllName' contains a valid path and name.
FIXEdge start fails and the FIXEdge log file contains the following record:
[FATAL] 20070215-11:45:12.312 - Transport Layer has failed to initialize: Cannot find the 'TransportLayer.SmtpTA.XXX' property.
The SMTP adaptor was not configured properly. The required 'TransportLayer.SmtpTA.XXX' property does not exist in the FIXEdge property file.
FIXEdge is started but the FIXEdge log file does not contain the 'SMTP Adaptor v.xxx started' record.
Make sure that the SMTP adaptor was configured properly in the FIXEdge property file:
  1. 'TransportLayer.SmtpTA' added into the 'TransportLayer.TransportAdapters' property
  2. 'Log.SmtpAdaptorTransportLayer.SmtpTA.File.Name' property that redirects the SMTP adaptor log into another file that does not exist.
Make sure that the FIXEdge log file does not contain any related error messages.
