Unable update mailbox: mailmng failed: Empty error message from utility

Regular Pleskian
Hi,

Similar to a previous recent thread on this forum (http://forum.parallels.com/showthread.php?t=260558)

I am unable to create a new mailbox on any domain after upgrading to Panel 11.0.9
I am unable to create a new mailbox from CLI. Resulting error:

----------------------------------------------
# /usr/local/psa/bin/mail -c [email protected] -passwd ******* -forwarding false -mailbox true -mbox_quota 20971520
/opt/psa/admin/bin/mailmng: relocation error: /opt/psa/admin/bin/mailmng: symbol EVP_CIPHER_CTX_init, version libmysqlclient_16 not defined in file libmysqlclient.so.16 with link time reference
An error occured during mailname creation: Unable update mailbox: mailmng failed: Empty error message from utility.
----------------------------------------------

I'm pretty sure I've followed the fixes listed on various links in the above thread but nothing seems to be working.

The machine is a VPS running Ubuntu 10.04.3LTS. Not in a Virtuozzo Container.

Any assistance much appreciated!

Dave

Thank you for information. This issue is really related to libmysqlclient16 update from OS vendor. I have submitted corresponding report and developers are working on it.
 
Same with me

The very same error is also on all of my (serveral!) servers. Need an urgent (!!!) bugfix.

P.S.: I am also using Ubuntu 10.4 LTS with Plesk 11.0.9 MU #23

Good Luck!
 
Where can I get the old mysql for i386?

Thanx for the hint on how to downgrade the mysql stuff.

However, my servers are i386 based. Where can i get these files for i386?
 
 
Workaround runs fine

Thanx, the workaround runs fine on the first server.

So we hope that Parallels will fix their code soon.
 
I also had trouble with downloading the i386 packages, but I found the following links that worked for me:

wget https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-secur...ysqlclient16_5.1.63-0ubuntu0.10.04.1_i386.deb
wget https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-secur...l-client-5.1_5.1.63-0ubuntu0.10.04.1_i386.deb
wget https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-secur...ent-core-5.1_5.1.63-0ubuntu0.10.04.1_i386.deb
wget https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-secur.../mysql-common_5.1.63-0ubuntu0.10.04.1_all.deb
wget https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-secur...l-server-5.1_5.1.63-0ubuntu0.10.04.1_i386.deb
wget https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-secur.../mysql-server_5.1.63-0ubuntu0.10.04.1_all.deb
wget https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-secur...ver-core-5.1_5.1.63-0ubuntu0.10.04.1_i386.deb
dpkg --force-downgrade -i *.deb

Hopefully there will be a fix soon so we can also install the MySQL updates from the OS!
