SMTP connect() failed PHPmailer - PHP

Closed 4 years ago.
I'm a beginner in php so I had written code for testing which will send an email using php.
I'm using "PHPMailer-5.2.27" to sent email with SMTP on php, but when I run the code the email not sent. I don't know what is the problem. Can anyone help me out!
<?php
require 'phpmailer/PHPMailerAutoload.php';
$mail = new PHPMailer();
$mail->Host = "smtp.gmail.com";
$mail->isSMTP();
$mail->SMTPAuth = true;
$mail->Username = "example#gmail.com";
$mail->Password = "xxxxxxxx";
$mail->SMTPSecure = "ssl";
$mail->Port = 465;
$mail->Subject = "test mail";
$mail->Body = "just a test";
$mail->setFrom('example#gmail.com','aaaa');
$mail->addAddress('example#gmail.com');
if ($mail->send())
echo "mail is sent";
else
echo "something wrong ";
?>

Assuming you have allowed your Gmail account to authorize the server from where you are sending an email.
use $mail->ErrorInfo; in order to debug your issue, this will clarify what is the actual failure reason for sending an email you can refer the below code I have shared.
<?php
require "PHPMailer/PHPMailerAutoload.php";
echo !extension_loaded('openssl')?"Not Available":"Available"; //check openssl is available or not
$mail = new PHPMailer(); // create a new object
$mail->IsSMTP(); // enable SMTP
$mail->SMTPDebug = 2; // debugging: 1 = errors and messages, 2 = messages only
$mail->SMTPAuth = true; // authentication enabled
$mail->SMTPSecure = 'ssl'; // secure transfer enabled REQUIRED for Gmail
$mail->Host = "smtp.gmail.com";
$mail->Port = 465; // or 587
$mail->IsHTML(true);
$mail->Username = "mygmailaccount#gmail.com";
$mail->Password = "**********";
$mail->SetFrom("example#gmail.com");
$mail->Subject = "Test";
$mail->Body = "hello";
$mail->AddAddress("toaddress#gmail.com");
if(!$mail->Send()) {
echo "Mailer Error: " . $mail->ErrorInfo;
} else {
echo "Message has been sent";
}
?>
