Hi all,
I just built a virtualmin server on CentOS 5.4 using the install.sh script.
when logging in via pop3 to my first (and only) virtual server, I get an error in my client. I get the following in /var/log/maillog:
Mar 10 15:36:53 mail2 dovecot: pop3-login: Login: user=, method=PLAIN, rip=::ffff:IP.add.re.ss, lip=::ffff:ip.add.re.ss Mar 10 15:37:26 mail2 dovecot: Killed with signal 15 Mar 10 15:37:26 mail2 dovecot: Dovecot v1.0.7 starting up Mar 10 15:37:41 mail2 dovecot: POP3(user@mydomain.name): file_dotlock_open() failed with file /home/mydomain/homes/user/Maildir/dovecot.index.log: Permission denied Mar 10 15:37:41 mail2 dovecot: POP3(user@mydomain.name): file_dotlock_open(/home/mydomain/homes/user/Maildir/dovecot-uidlist) failed: Permission denied Mar 10 15:37:41 mail2 dovecot: POP3(user@mydomain.name): Couldn't init INBOX: Can't sync mailbox: Messages keep getting expunged Mar 10 15:37:41 mail2 dovecot: POP3(user@mydomain.name): Mailbox init failed top=0/0, retr=0/0, del=0/0, size=0
I tried deleting and re-adding the domain, and used different domains. They all give me the same results. I have tried searching the 'Net and the Forum, with no results.
I have added the "FLAGS=-r" and changed the domain name parameters to allow for "@" in the login name.
I have also changed the file /etc/dovecot.conf line for mail location as such: mail_location = maildir:~/Maildir
I'm not sure where to go next...
Thanks,
GS

Howdy, Hmm, what do you see
Howdy,
Hmm, what do you see if you type this:
ls -l /home/mydomain/homes/user/MaildirAnd this as well:
ps auxw | grep dovecot[root@mail2 user]# ls -l
never did get it
I know this is old, but I should have closed it, so doing it now.
I never did get this resolved. I just wiped the drive and started fresh, and everything worked the second time around. GS
