Additional context

• Is this a fresh install or an upgrade? Fresh Install
• What OS and web server you're running Snipe-IT on see above
• What method you used to install Snipe-IT (install.sh, manual installation, docker, etc) install.sh
• Include what you've done so far in the installation, and if you got any error messages along the way.
  I received error messages about permission on the ./storage directory when first running setup. Some sub directories were owned by root. I changed the owner to www-data and the group to www-data and it resolved the problem.
• Indicate whether or not you've manually edited any data directly in the database - NO

👋 Thanks for opening your first issue here! If you're reporting a 🐞 bug, please make sure you include steps to reproduce it. We get a lot of issues on this repo, so please be patient and we will get back to you as soon as we can.

My best guess is that you will need to create an app password for Snipe-IT in your google account.

Google Account -> Security -> App password (Google Login section)
Choose a name for you app password and hit "create"
Write it down and then copy it into your .env replacing your normal password.

See if it helps :)

Jovibroz - Thanks but that didn't work. I activated 2-step verification. Created a 16 character app password. Copied it into the .env in the mail_password section and ran sudo php artisan config:clear. Same error :(

[jovibroz]

Ah too bad.. I'm not enough skilled to trouble shoot this kind of error but I've had many errors before I was up and running nicely :) What ubuntu version? Seems like some dependency are not configured correctly to me.. the noob :)

I'm going to check that actually. That's what I was thinking too.

Any luck solving this issue? I'm running into the same problem with a docker install.

[pathfndr]

Nope. We installed postfix locally, pointed snipe-it to localhost and used the same gmail smtp account to send via postfix and got it to work that way.
