Sorry...I did mean to update the version number. I will do that for the next release. As for your login issuel, it sounds like the mailbox did not get created.
What you can do it try this as root at the prompt:
mailx -s Welcome myhda@home.com < /var/hda/web-apps/webmail/html/patch/welcome.txt
This is what sets up the mailbox. I think that could be the problem. If not, we can try to troubleshoot it some more.

Re: email server
ok...yea the mailbox did not get created. See my earlier post and change the email address to match whatever yours is in the script.
You can find this line in the script as well, near the bottom. Hope that helps.

Re: email server
I used this command as root at the prompt:
but still the same error. Any idea?
Code: Select all

Re: email server
Is the email address correct? The first script will change the user login to match your hostname.
If your hostname is not hda.home.com, then the email address would not be myhda@home.com.
Also, did you see any errors during install? I uploaded the revised script with the new version. Check the database and see what it contains. That may provide a clue as to what the problem might be.

Re: email server
i've checked the database domain: home.com, users: myhda@home.com. I've installed the scripts on a clean 32 bits fedora 10 install.

Re: email server
ok...well the only thing that I can think of is the mailbox issue. Check /var/log for maillog and see if there is anything there that might indicate the problem.
I just ran it again on my f10 32-bit vm and it works fine. I presume you were root when you tried to resend an email to myhda@home.com, right?

Re: email server

Re: email server
I did some poking around to determine where the mailbox is stored. Here is what I have found:
/home/vmail/domain/user (i.e. /var/mail/home.com/myhda)
/home/vmail/domain/user/cur
/home/vmail/domain/user/new
/home/vmail/domain/user/tmp
Check yours and if this structure is not present, then you may need to create it. The Welcome mail typically creates the mailbox, unless something went wrong during install. You could always try uninstalling, then doing a reinstall.
I would recommend before you reinstall, that you remove some of the major depends that have services running or stop the services. If you don't, you will get an error on reinstall stating the service is running. Future versions will include a better uninstall script to ensure all the services installed are stopped and removed.
Hope this helps. If not, we will take a different approach and figure it out.

Re: email server
i remembered something from yesterdays install. When i typed "ehlo localhost" (second prompt) i'll get a error. Tried a couple of things but the installation automatically went on.

Re: email server
Ok, if you received an error then that may be the issue. I recommend you run the uninstall script. Then, remove the major dependencies, i.e. postfix, spamassassin, etc.
Not sure why you received an error during install. That's why I left those checks in the script is for cases like this. Did you by chance know what the error was?
Sorry this has not worked for you, but I am sure we can sort it out. Playing with an email server is tricky business, so problems are to be expected.
