Public links in shared folders do not work

Server
1

Hello, everybody,
after updating Owncloud to 10.3.0 via the updater there is a problem with folders shared in Owncloud.
There are folders shared with the members of a group. The folders are accessible to all. But if a member of the group who is not the creator of the folder wants to share files or the folder via a public link, he gets the message:
“An error occurred while sending the mail. No email could be sent to the following recipients: Mail address”
Only the creator of the shared folder can share it in this way. This is the case for all users, as well as for newly created and shared folders. So it is a general problem.
With all own folders / files this problem does not exist, there the mails are sent.
I am grateful for every hint!

Steps to reproduce

  1. share a shared folder via public link

Expected behaviour

Email should be fired

Actual behaviour

An error occurred while sending the mail. No email could be sent to the following recipients: Mail address"

With access to your command line run e.g.:
sudo -u www-data php occ ldap:show-config
from within your ownCloud installation folder

Without access to your command line download the data/owncloud.db to your local
computer or access your SQL server remotely and run the select query:
SELECT * FROM `oc_appconfig` WHERE `appid` = 'user_ldap';


Eventually replace sensitive data as the name/IP-address of your LDAP server or groups.

Hey,

if such issues appears after an upgrade i would personally report these to a bugtracker rather then to a user based support forum. It seems the bugtracker for ownCloud is available at:
