I have an ubuntu 10.10 server with ISPConfig 3.0.3.3 running in Hyper-V. I used the perfect server tutorial for 10.10 ISPConfig 3 to set up. This server is in production and has been for over a month. I tried to add the sql_changepassword plugin for squirrelmail using this tutorial at first http://www.howtoforge.com/virtual-u...x-courier-mysql-and-squirrelmail-ubuntu-10.10 then realized this was for ISPConfig2 after I had already run through it. I then used http://www.howtoforge.com/how-to-co...heir-email-passwords-on-an-ispconfig-3-server to try to get it to work and to no avail. I am still getting the Connection Dropped error. I have check all of the .cf files edited in the first tutorial to verify they were correct. Here are the most recent logs Jun 29 00:43:48 web1 imapd: authentication error: Input/output error Jun 29 00:47:43 web1 imapd: authentication error: Input/output error Jun 29 00:50:24 web1 imapd: authentication error: Input/output error Jun 29 00:50:38 web1 imapd: authentication error: Input/output error Jun 29 01:07:35 web1 pop3d: authentication error: Input/output error Jun 29 01:08:41 web1 pop3d: last message repeated 2 times Jun 29 01:14:26 web1 pop3d: authentication error: Input/output error Jun 29 01:36:32 web1 imapd: authentication error: Input/output error Jun 29 01:40:09 web1 imapd: authentication error: Input/output error Jun 29 01:41:08 web1 imapd: authentication error: Input/output error Jun 29 01:41:35 web1 imapd: authentication error: Input/output error Jun 29 01:43:16 web1 imapd: authentication error: Input/output error Jun 29 01:44:43 web1 pop3d: authentication error: Input/output error Please help this server is in production, and I can not figure this out. I can uninstall in reinstall squirrelmail from scratch if need be, I am just not quite sure how to do that.
1) Do you get this error only for squirrelmail connections or also for connections from other pop3 / imap clients? Did you change any postfix, docecot, courier or ispconfig configuration files?
I can't connect to it from the outside at all. I was able to connect before trying to add the plugin so no network changes have occurred.
This is an independent tutorial and has nothing to do with ISPConfig 2 or 3. You say that you can't connect at all. Is it possible that fail2ban has locked you out?
I used the ISPConfig forums for this as I used the instructions provided on how to do this within ISP config. fail2ban has not locked me out I have even tried to create new mailboxes from a different system on a different network but I was unable to connect to those as well. I can connect to everything else ftp, phpmyadmin just not mail.
Maybe falko was not that clear in his answer. The tutorial http://www.howtoforge.com/virtual-u...x-courier-mysql-and-squirrelmail-ubuntu-10.10 is incompatible with ispconfig 3 or in other words, if you apply this tutorial on a ispconfig server, the setup will be completely broken. What you can try is to run a ispconfig 3 update on the system, it might fix the problem.
No updates available I tried the update and it tells me no updates are available. Any other suggestions?
Download the ISPConfig 3 sources, but instead of running Code: php -q install.php you run Code: php -q update.php
Thanks Falko this seem to work. However now I can not connect to the SMTP with a mail client like outlook.
