(Debian Squeeze/Sid) ISPConfig 3.0.5.4p8 After upgrading to p8 today, I get in /var/log/mail.err: Code: Jun 25 16:36:21 ispc3 authdaemond: failed to connect to mysql server (server=localhost, userid=ispconfig): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2) Jun 25 16:36:21 ispc3 imapd: authentication error: Input/output error Jun 25 16:36:21 ispc3 authdaemond: failed to connect to mysql server (server=localhost, userid=ispconfig): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2) Jun 25 16:36:21 ispc3 imapd: authentication error: Input/output error When upgrading, I did slave first and remembered to answer yes to "Reconfigure Permissions in master database?". I have only one slave. On master I answerd no.
Ok. nad did you restart the services incl. mysql after you rebootet the server? According to the error, mysql is not running. so it might be that it was not started after reboot.
There is something strange with starting services at boot. I noticed from /var/log/syslog that also mydns failed to start: Jun 25 16:36:16 ispc3 mydns[1320]: Error connecting to MySQL server at localhost: Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2) (errno=2) I started the service by hand, and now it starts: Jun 25 18:03:51 ispc3 mydns[20161]: mydns 1.2.8.31 started Thu Jun 25 18:03:51 2015 (listening on 4 addresses) Are the startup scripts messed up, and no longer start services in the right order? I stopped Courier and started it again. Now looks like the errors did not appear. I have scripts to stop and starts all parts of Courier.
Thats probably the case, mysql was started after the other services. But this has nothing to do with the p8 update as ISPConfig has no influence on start scripts or boot oder of system services.
