qmail & horde problem in Plesk 8.1 + Fedora Core 5

[ikaros2]

Since the installation of my VPS (Plesk 8.1, Fedora Core 5) the mail server (qmail) is running but it doesn't work.

When I try to access it via webmail (Horde) it says "login failed". When I try to access it via Outlook Express it just doesn't accept the password and keeps prompting.

The /var/log/psa-horde/psa-horde.log :

Jan 15 17:19:44 HORDE [error] [imp] FAILED LOGIN 64.2.123.96 to localhost:143[imap/notls] as [email protected] [on line 258 of "/usr/share/psa-horde/imp/lib/Auth/imp.php"]

The /var/log/httpd/access.log :

[15/Jan/2007:17:19:45 -0600] "GET /imp/login.php?imapuser=support&logout_reason=failed HTTP/1.1" 200 2917 "http://webmail.example.com/imp/login.php" "Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1; SV1; .NET CLR 2.0.50727)"

Any ideas?

you could try synchronizing the data of Plesk and Qmail to make sure it is equal data for both

/usr/local/psa/admin/bin/mchk --without-spam

I had the same problem with webmail. This cured webmail for me:

In /etc/psa-horde/imp/servers.php,
change:
'server' => 'localhost';
to:
'server' => '[YOUR IP ADDRESS HERE]';

Don't know about your other issue but I hope this helps your webmail issue.

Hey,

I was having the same problem (just randomly happened to me, not after an upgrade) and all I did was restart the mail service and everything went back to normal...

Did you give that a try?

 

[ikaros2]

Yes I did restart the mail server but it didn't work. Only the above hack helped.

Hello

I had this problem with horde and I found that the cause of this problem is the "file descriptors restriction" in the Apache web server. You can find the useful article at the following address to resolve this problem:
