Error: Password file could not be found

[JimmyR1989]

Hi All,

My Atmail has stopped working, and gives this error when trying to access webmail.

Error: Password file could not be found

I have tried removing and re-installing and tried updating. With no luck.

Can anyone please give me any advice.

Thank you

Edit: /etc/psa-webmail/atmail/atmail_vhost.conf and look for this line:

Code:
php_admin_value open_basedir "@WEBMAIL_DOCROOT@:/var/log/atmail:/etc/psa:/tmp:/var/tmp:/etc/psa-webmail/atmail"


You will see it twice. Be sure to append the ":/etc/psa-webmail/atmail" like you see above. This will set it properly for the template, but it will *not* make it live. To do that, this should work:

Code:
/usr/local/psa/admin/bin/websrvmng -a


Check to see if the template was pushed to your atmail configuration file by running this:

Code:
cat /etc/httpd/conf.d/zzz_atmail_vhost.conf | grep open_basedir


If you see the ":/etc/psa-webmail/atmail" portion appended to the open_basedir line that this last command presents to you, then simply restart apache to apply it:

Code:
/sbin/service httpd restart


If not, edit that file as well and manually insert it in the same way you did to the template file, then restart apache.

BTW. Credit has to go to jas8522 from the forum http://www.atomicorp.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=5875

The error you are getting is probably from your update to 1.05 atmail from atomiccorp repo Which fixes the security issue but some people including my self end up with the password error. The fix i posted resolved it right away for me and others.

Interestingly, zzz_atmail_vhost.conf is missing on my plesk 12, even though I had added atmail support..

Adding the opendir does not appear to solve the atmail problem for Plesk 12.
I added it lavishly into the templates, did an httpdmng -a, waited 10 minutes,
restarted httpd, same result - cannot find password file.
