Cannot Send email from Webmail

[mdiberi]

After upgrade to 8.6 I get the following message from Horde:


"Error There was an error sending your message: Failed to open sendmail [/var/qmail/bin/sendmail] for execution."

Any ideas? Why is it looking at sendmail?

Hi,

There's a complete solution to your problem mention in the Parallels Plesk knowledgebase.

The knowledgebase is here: http://kb.odin.com/en/products/pleskunix

The solution is here:

Esentially a function necessary to allow horde to work is disabled in php.ini

Re-enabling it, then restarting apache, will solve the problem.

(or it may also be selinux related -- again easy to fix).

Faris.

Thanks faris. I did find the function in php.ini that was responsible (popen) and re-enabled it. It would have been nice to have some specificity from support reagding this issue rather than their suggestion of just re-enabling function by function until webmail works.
