Cannot send email with amazon ses

Question

I am developing an Codeigniter based website and I need to send emails to people when they are signup up. My server is hosted at Amazon EC2.

I am trying to use their Amazon Simple Email Service and I am using the below library to get that working. I get no error but the sending fails. I am currently in Sandbox mode so I can only send (when it works) to my registered email address but that fails too.

I have configured the library using my AWS credentials. What can be wrong?

This is the library that I am using:

https://github.com/joelcox/codeigniter-amazon-ses

This is my controller code:

 // Load the Library $this->load->library('amazon_ses'); // Configure and send email $this->amazon_ses->to('[email protected]'); $this->amazon_ses->subject('Open me!'); $this->amazon_ses->message('<strong>Use HTML</strong>'); if ($this->amazon_ses->send()) { echo "Successfully sent!"; } else { echo "Failure!"; } $this->amazon_ses->debug(TRUE);

$this->amazon_ses->debug(TRUE);

That debug-line should be used before calling ...->send(), try this and check what AmazonSES answers:

$this->load->library('amazon_ses'); $this->amazon_ses->to('[email protected]'); $this->amazon_ses->subject('Open me!'); $this->amazon_ses->message('<strong>Use HTML</strong>'); $this->amazon_ses->debug(TRUE); print_r( $this->amazon_ses->send() );

Thanks! I get the error: MissingAuthenticationToken. I have setup my AWS credentials in the config file. What can be missing?
