Cakephp email with attachment falid - php

Question

I am trying to send email with attachment in Cakephp 2.6 via Mailgun. It normally working fine unless I add 'attachments($attachments)'. My code is below.
$attachments = SITE_URL . '/img/red-hyphen.png';
$data = array (
'unique_secret_key' => $unique_secret_key,
'WAYDSiteUrl' => $siteUrl
);
$Email = new CakeEmail ( 'mailgun' );
$Email->template ( 'forgotpassword', 'default' )
->emailFormat ( 'html' )
->viewVars ( $data )
->subject ( 'Forgot Password' )
->to ( $chek_exists_record ['Member'] ['email'] )
->attachments($attachments)
->send ();
I am getting error
Error: An Internal Error Has Occurred.

You should try this Cakephp send email with attachment
email.php file
public $gmail = array(
'host' => 'ssl://smtp.gmail.com',
'port' => 465,
'username' => 'abc#gmail.com',
'password' => 'xxxxxxxx',
'transport' => 'Smtp'
);
In your Controller At the top import the cakeemail function
App::uses('CakeEmail', 'Network/Email');
After that your function/Action of your controller
$client_email='sharmavikram054#gmail.com'
$Email = new CakeEmail();
$Email->template('doperesult');
$Email->viewVars(array( 'unique_secret_key' => $unique_secret_key,'WAYDSiteUrl' => $siteUrl ));
$Email->emailFormat('html');
$Email->to($client_email);
$Email->from('admin#capeprofileconsultancy.com');
$Email->attachments(array(
'red-hyphen.png' => array(
'file' => WWW_ROOT.'img/red-hyphen.png',
'mimetype' => 'image/png',
'contentId' => 'my-unique-id'
)
));
$Email->subject('Dummy test');
if($Email->send('Send Mail')){
$this->Session->setFlash('Your Result is successfully send','default',array('class'=>'alert alert-success'));
return $this->redirect('/');
