I'm currently rewriting a client's web application using cakephp.  One of 
the pages requires sending the data in a form to the company in an email.  
I'm having problems with this in my development environment:

   - Ubuntu 14.10
   - Apache2/PHP  with all the normal libraries like lib_php, mod_rewrite, 
   etc
   - PHP 5.5
   - CakePHP 2.5.4
   
After poking about a bit on the web, I've seen that I have to load 
lib_openssl and that I should include the following line in my php.ini 
file.  So in /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini I've added the recommended line to 
the Dynamic Extensions section:

extension=php_openssl.so

I'm not sure if this is correct because Ubuntu includes php_openssl via gnutls. 
 However, I don't know how to test this.

I've created an email.php file under app/Config with the following class 
definition:

class EmailConfig {
 public $gmail = array(
 'host' => 'ssl://smtp.gmail.com',
 'port' => 465,
 'username' => 'myusern...@gmail.com',
 'password' => 'mypassword',
 'transport' => 'Smtp',
 );
}

The username and password are copied from Thunderbird, so should be OK.

Finally, I set up a test page under app/View/Pages, called email-tester.ctp 
containing the code:

<?php
App::uses('CakeEmail', 'Network/Email');

$Email = new CakeEmail();
$Email->from(array('myusern...@gmail.com' => 'My Gmail Address'))
 ->to('myem...@myemailprovider.con')
 ->subject('About')
 ->send('My message');
?>
<p>Email sent...</p>

When I try to open this page at localhost/myproject/pages/email-tester I get an 
error message as follows:


*Error: * An Internal Error Has Occurred.

If anyone can decode this for me, or give me some idea as to what I should try 
next, I'd be very grateful.

Thanks in advance
