• The BIND DNS server has already been deprecated and removed from Plesk for Windows.
    If a Plesk for Windows server is still using BIND, the upgrade to Plesk Obsidian 18.0.70 will be unavailable until the administrator switches the DNS server to Microsoft DNS. We strongly recommend transitioning to Microsoft DNS within the next 6 weeks, before the Plesk 18.0.70 release.
  • The Horde component is removed from Plesk Installer. We recommend switching to another webmail software supported in Plesk.

Horde: Login failed

HI,

I have some problems with system. When I`m trying to login in Horde with new user I get message "Login failed". But when I`m trying to login with my old account - everything is all right. Also with new user I can read message through mail program like "The Bat" or another with POP3 and IMAP.

/var/log/mail.info:
imapd: IMAP connect from @ [127.0.0.1]ERR: LOGIN FAILED, ip=[127.0.0.1]

/opt/psa/bin/mail.sh -i user - shows me right password.

Anybody knows how can I solve this problem???

System: Plesk 9.2.2 and there was no upgrade.
 
Hello,

First of all examine psa-horde.log and Apache log for errors. If you see "Segmentation fault" errors in Apache log and have more than 250 domains, check the article http://kb.odin.com/en/260

This problem may occur if the domain's web content is hosted on another server and the MX DNS record doesn't exist or points not to the Plesk server. IMP tries to check mail on whatever server the domain name resolves to. In order to prevent this from happening the domain name or MX record (if it exists) must be resolved locally to the server.

Also, you can run IMP test to check the problem at: http://webmail.DOMAIN.COM/horde/imp/test.php

Make sure that it is possible to connect to localhost:143 from the command line using telnet. If you get the error as below:

# telnet localhost 143

localhost/143: Name or service not known

then check /etc/hosts file. It must have permissions -rw-r--r-- and contain the record for localhost in the following format:

127.0.0.1 localhost localhost.localdomain

Please, see the following article for more information:

Thank you
 
Hello,

Thanks for your answer. The error was a bit simpler than I can imagine. There had been enabled global variable "mbstring.func_overload = 2" in php.ini. To resolve this problem I had added some strings into "/etc/apache2/conf.d/zzz_horde_vhost.conf":

<Directory /usr/share/psa-horde>
<IfModule mod_php5.c>
php_admin_value mbstring.func_overload "0"
</IfModule>
</Directory>

There is no problems with horde now.
