ruby on rails - ActionMailer doesn't work in production -

all of app's functionality works except email function. works fine , expected in development. hosted app using digitalocean's ruby on rails one-click server setup. here link instructions: https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-use-the-ruby-on-rails-one-click-application-on-digitalocean

my controller

def create     @job = job.find(session[:edit_job])     @receipt = @job.receipts.create(params.require(:receipt).permit(:email, :information))       if @receipt.valid?         begin             email             render :js => "window.location = '/jobs/#{session[:edit_job]}/edit'"         rescue             @receipt.destroy             flash[:error] = "error sending email!"             render "layouts/fail"         end     else         flash[:error] = "error creating receipt!"         render "layouts/fail"     end end  def email             customermailer.email_receipt(@receipt).deliver_now             flash[:notice] = "email sent successfully."      end 

i unsure of how check server logs, positive email function throwing error because flash indicates error messaging.

config.action_mailer.smtp_settings set in development, not in production, rails trying connect default, localhost:25. need add configuration config/environments/production.rb.

if settings same in both environments, can move config have (both smtp_settings , delivery_method) config/environments/development.rb config/application.rb - latter global configuration runs in environments. if that, you'll want set delivery_method :test in config/environments/test.rb don't accidentally send mail during testing.
