Hi,
I'm trying to get exim4 (as MTA), Courier IMAP and Courier webmail
working as a package. I seem to have got IMAP working, but when I log
into webmail, I get:
IMAP has nothing to do with sqwebmail.
I said that because they both access the same Maildir folders - so the
fact that IMAP was working, suggested that the Maildirs were okay.
Internal error (module sqconfig.c, line 77) - contact system
administrator
Any ideas what that means?
I've got messages delivered into my Maildir folder - I can see them
there.
It means that sqwebmail is unable to update an internal configuration
file, in the maildir.
Aaaaah. Thank you.
Possible reasons:
• You are out of disk space.
I was out of space on / (Maildirs are on /home). I cleared some out,
restarted apache2, sqwebmail and courier-authdaemon, and still got the same.
• sqwebmail is not running under the same userid and groupid that owns
the maildir on the filesystem.
Hmm. It is running as root. Surely root has access to the Maildir?
According to whatever authentication method you're using with
sqwebmail (which of course you didn't mention, obviously expecting
everyone else to figure it out telepathically),
(I didn't mention it more because there's soooo much I could mention,
and as a complete mail newbie, I didn't know where to start.)
I'm using authdaemon, with authpam, using system accounts. That seems to
work for IMAP, i.e. IMAP can log in.
the login account's home directory is X, and the accounts userid and
groupid are Y and Z; however after changing to home directory X, and
its maildir, the process is unable to save a configuration file
because it does not have the filesystem permissions to do so (either
the permissions on the filesystem are set incorrectly, or Y and Z are
not the real owners of X, and its maildir).
Hmmm. The user account is called upayavira. The Maildir is owned by
upayavira, with user rwx------ permissions on pretty much everything.
How could it be any other way? Surely my maildir is owned by me, and
should be owned only by me?
I should also add, I'm using the deb packages from Debian Sarge.
Thanks for any more help you are able to offer.
