error bool(false) when use var_dump($mail->send()); at phpmailer

Question

$mail = new YiiMailer();
$mail->setView('contact');
$mail->setData(array('register' => $model,'user' =>$user));
//$mail->clearLayout();//if layout is already set in config
$mail->setFrom('xxxx@gmail.com', 'amatra');
$mail->setTo($model->client_email);
$mail->setSubject('Amatra Registration');
$mail->setBody('Thank u for registering, to get server licence activation key ');
$mail->setSmtp('smtp.gmail.com', 465, 'ssl', true, 'xxxx@gmail.com', 'aconxontheroad');

var_dump($mail->send());
if($mail->send()) {
    return true;    
} else {
    return false;
}

I changed port and SMTPSecure but still outputs bool (false),I can't deduce where the error is.

In order to see errors, you need to do some actual error checking, and make use of PHPMailer’s debugging features, which you will find in the docs and examples. This code attempts to send your message twice, once for each time you call `send`. — Synchro, Oct 08 '18 at 05:41

So read the page that links to, and [read the PHPMailer docs that tell you what to do about it](https://github.com/PHPMailer/PHPMailer/wiki/Troubleshooting#read-the-smtp-transcript). You set `SMTPDebug = 1`, so you can't see all that the server is saying; set it to `2`. It also looks like you're using a very old version of PHPMailer, so you should update. — Synchro, Oct 08 '18 at 07:34

$mail->SMTPDebug = 1; //optional

You can refer this post to clearly: Yii, Yiimailer doesn't send the mail (no error shown)

Set this to 2, not 1. Also this should be a comment as it’s not an answer. – Synchro Oct 08 '18 at 05:37

Try the Yii2 Swift mailer.

Yii::$app->mailer->compose('contact/html')
 ->setFrom('from@domain.com')
 ->setTo($form->email)
 ->setSubject($form->subject)
 ->send();
