Getmail does an does not do it :?

I installed ISPconfig on my server with teh perfect server howto i found here

http://www.howtoforge.org/perfect-server-debian-lenny-ispconfig3-p1

It worked like a charm and out of the box, thanks for the good work!


but ....


I dont seem to get "getmail" working.

What i have done so far.

1) Looked in de logfile

Every 5 minutes there comes a line in the logfile "/var/log/ispconfig/cron.log" that says:

"/bin/sh: /usr/local/ispconfig/server/scripts/run-getmail.sh: Permission denied"

The file cron.log is chmodded 666.


2) Ran /usr/local/ispconfig/server/scripts/run-getmail.sh as root. It then runs fine.
run-getmail is chmodded 755.


3) searched internet and found someone posting a similar prolem but the suggested solution didn't work for me.
the link: http://bugtracker.ispconfig.org/index.php?do=details&task_id=484
see the Comment by Paolo (airton)

Perhaps it has something to do with the crontab that triggers the event every 5 minutes but i cant seem to find it.

Can anyone help?

I used update_from_svn.sh and the problem still exists here.

What was the fix so I can adjust it manually? I'm going to need it very soon. All of the permissions look correct.

Other changes that should be made to the getmail section to allow retrieving from servers like gmail that force ssl:

/usr/local/interface/web/mail/form/mail_get.tform.php

Line 76 from

Code:

                         'value'         => array('pop3' => 'POP3','imap'=>'IMAP')

to

Code:

                        'value'         => array('pop3' => 'POP3','imap'=>'IMAP','pop3ssl' => 'POP3SSL','imapssl'=>'IMAPSSL')

and /usr/local/ispconfig/server/plugins-enabled/getmail_plugin.inc.php

starting at line 112

Code:

                                // Set the data retriever
                                if($data["new"]["type"] == 'pop3') {
                                        $tpl = str_replace('{TYPE}','SimplePOP3Retriever',$tpl);
                                } elseif ($data["new"]["type"] == 'imap') {
                                        $tpl = str_replace('{TYPE}','SimpleIMAPRetriever',$tpl);
                                }

change to

Code:

                                // Set the data retriever
                                if($data["new"]["type"] == 'pop3') {
                                        $tpl = str_replace('{TYPE}','SimplePOP3Retriever',$tpl);
                                } elseif ($data["new"]["type"] == 'imap') {
                                        $tpl = str_replace('{TYPE}','SimpleIMAPRetriever',$tpl);
                                } elseif ($data["new"]["type"] == 'pop3ssl') {
                                        $tpl = str_replace('{TYPE}','SimplePOP3SSLRetriever',$tpl);
                                } elseif ($data["new"]["type"] == 'imapssl') {
                                        $tpl = str_replace('{TYPE}','SimpleIMAPSSLRetriever',$tpl);
                                }

 

I know those changes weren't related, I just didn't know of another place to mention them as a "good idea" to add.

And, yes, the update not working was my error. I ran update_from_svn.sh directly rather than running ispconfig_update.sh and selecting the 'svn' option.

It is working now after doing the svn update the correct way.

Thank you,

Gerald

 

I have this error also. I am using ISPConfig3 3.0.1.6. My ISP Cron-log is full of "/bin/sh: /usr/local/ispconfig/server/scripts/run-getmail.sh: Permission denied"

How do I resolve this problem?

 

Stable and not SVN correct?

Also, when I looked got run-getmail.sh, it is not located in the /usr/local/ispconfig/server/scripts/ but there is a getmail.sh. On the other hand run-getmail.sh is located at /usr/local/bin/run-getmail.sh

Is this the problem? Will running the update fix this? I have updated ISPConfig3 before a month ago and a few updates before. Shouldn't this have fixed the problem? Just wondering.

Thanks!
