Error when sending the confirmation email

Questions / Help
1

I use Phoenix 1.7, “mix phx.gen.auth”, and set up my email with the following code.

# config/config.exs
config :hello, Hello.Mailer,
    adapter: Swoosh.Adapters.Sendgrid,
    api_key: System.get_env("SENDGRID_API_KEY")

config :swoosh, :api_client, Swoosh.ApiClient.Finch

When I register a user, I get the following error message.

[error] GenServer #PID<0.601.0> terminating

How do I solve the error?

Many thanks for your replying.

Could your config be set to ‘false’ in an environment specific config?

It looks like you may have config :swoosh, :api_client, false set somewhere

Many thanks for your reply.

I update my config as follows and it works.

# config/config.exs
config :hello, Hello.Mailer,
       adapter: Swoosh.Adapters.Sendgrid,
       api_key: System.get_env("SENDGRID_API_KEY")

# config/dev.exs
config :swoosh, api_client: Swoosh.ApiClient.Finch, finch_name: Hello.Finch

I ran into a loosly related issue and just wanted to document it somewhere.

(ArgumentError) unknown registry: PetalPro.Finch

The :finch_name didn’t match what was set in my application.ex supervisory tree.
