Qmail uninstalled : how to install it back?

Hi,

After doing by mistake a chown root * on the server, we have now several problems on the server.
We recovered access to PLESK admin by changing the rights :
chown -Rv psaadm.psaadm etc/psa

But Qmail is still not working. After multiple tries of changing the permissions, we decided to uninstalled Qmail to reinstall it.

[root@ /]# rpm -e psa-qmail --nodeps
Trying to register service xinetd... using /sbin/chkconfig
done
Trying to unregister service qmail... using /sbin/chkconfig
Trying to reload service xinetd... xinetd (pid 2350) is running...
Reloading configuration: [ OK ]
done

Removing qmail users (if they exist):
Trying to register service xinetd... using /sbin/chkconfig
done
Trying to remove user alias... done
Trying to remove user qmaild... done
Trying to remove user qmaill... done
Trying to remove user qmailp... done
Trying to remove user qmailq... done
Trying to remove user qmailr... done
Trying to remove user qmails... done

Removing qmail groups (if they exist):
Trying to remove group nofiles... done
Trying to remove group qmail... done

But we can't find how to reinstall Qmail. The forum suggested we could do it through the Updater on Plesk. But it doesn't seem to work.

We also have problems with the webmail, it shows this error : unable to get webmail password.
This error was appearing before uninstalling Qmail.

Thanks for your help,
Regards,
Celia
 
Go to root folder, there is Parallels folder, get to your correct version, and look in one folder for qmail RPM. Then run it.
