Hi all, I followed the "the perfect Server 14.04" how-to and followed everything up until the install of ISPconfig3. I did not install ISPConfig3. I cannot login into phpmyadmin, and squirrelmail (dovecot), I am trying to use my root/password account. What can I do? I thought that created default accounts when installing this applications. Thanks Heeter
Update: I finally figured out the phpmyadmin side, But still having issues with squirrelmail dovecot. Thanks Heeter

Hi There is a file missing, create a file sasl.conf with content & then try to restart the service of fail2ban. Br// Srijan
Hi Thanks for the help. This is what I am getting now: Code: root@adminpc:/etc/fail2ban/filter.d# service fail2ban restart * Restarting authentication failure monitor fail2ban [ OK ] root@adminpc:/etc/fail2ban/filter.d# Heeter
Please create the file sasl.conf as mentiontioned in above posts. Further restart the fail2ban service Br// Srijan
Sorry, I did forget to mention that I did create that file, but fail2ban still fails to start. Heeter

What is the status of fail2ban? Please check that whether there was any process of fail2ban running. Kill all instances of fail2ban & then try to STOP/START the fail2ban. Br// Srijan
Sorry I misunderstood your last post, Code: root@adminpc:/etc/apache2/sites-available# pkill fail2ban root@adminpc:/etc/apache2/sites-available# killall -v fail2ban fail2ban: no process found root@adminpc:/etc/apache2/sites-available# service fail2ban restart * Restarting authentication failure monitor fail2ban [ OK ] root@adminpc:/etc/apache2/sites-available# Thanks Heeter
Now fail2ban is ok & restarted as like normal. Proceed further steps of guide and check if you are getting the proper configurations of ISPconfig Br// Srijan
Thanks for your help. I do not intend to install ISPconfig. I just used the perfect 14.04 server setup to have a full featured LAMP setup. The squirrelmail is now complaining that "ERROR: Connection dropped by IMAP server." Thanks again Heeter
I haven't yet for myself, I thought that it creates the root account during the install of LAMP. Sorry, pretty weak with dovecot servers. Heeter
