Plesk 8.1, Fedora Core 5 and Horde-sendmail problem

[ikaros2]

When I try to send a mail via Horde I get the following error:

Any idea what's wrong?

HEllo,

Please give a :

telnet localhost 25


from ssh and paste the output in here.

Thsi can be caused , by the fact that xinetd is not running or freeze .
smtp_psa is missing from /etc/xinet.d/ , firewall, and I am sure that there could be more causes.

Oh and of course qmail is not running could be the cause as well)

 

[ikaros2]

qmail is running as I can see from Virtuozzo Control Panel.

I connect to the server via ssh and when i try telnet localhost 25 i get:

telnet: localhost: Name or service not known
localhost: Unknown host

Hello,


check your hosts file in /etc:

it should look like:

127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost
ipaddress servername short_serverename

 

[ikaros2]

What do you mean by servername, short_servername?

I only know localhost.localdomain, localhost. Is that the same?

Hello,


what does the hostname -f command show you?

If nothing then you have a problem.
Every server has a hostname. qmail will not work unless thsi is configured properly.

You can also tell Horde to simply use sendmail in order to send mails:

- edit the file /etc/psa-horde/horde/conf.php
- change the line [mailer][type] to:
$conf['mailer']['type'] = 'sendmail';
