    Normally you should not change anything. The installation through package manager is very simple.

    Anyway in my system in /etc/roundcube/ all files belong to root:root except debian-db.php and main.inc.php which belong to root:www-data

    Do you have any main.inc.php in your /etc/roundcube/ directory?

    -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 2260 Oct 18 2010 db.inc.php
    -rw-rw---- 1 www-data www-data 552 Jun 23 12:28 debian-db.php

    -rw-r----- 1 root www-data 18307 Jun 23 12:23 main.inc.php
    -rw-r----- 1 root www-data 18306 Jun 22 19:38 main.inc.php.ucf-old
    -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 2392 Aug 7 2009 mimetypes.php

    It seems that you didn't do the installation correct.
    Please read the last posts of the first page of this thread.
    It's a reinstall procedure of roundcube.

    Was following the guide

    And i havent added those lines:

    Code:
    <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
        <IfModule mod_ssl.c>
            <Location /webmail>
              RewriteEngine on
              RewriteCond %{HTTPS} !^on$ [NC]
              RewriteRule . https://%{HTTP_HOST}:50443%{REQUEST_URI}  [L]
            </Location>
          </IfModule>
    </IfModule>
    
    <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
          <IfModule mod_ssl.c>
             <Location /roundcube>
              RewriteEngine on
              RewriteCond %{HTTPS} !^on$ [NC]
              RewriteRule . https://%{HTTP_HOST}:50443%{REQUEST_URI}  [L]
            </Location>
          </IfModule>
    </IfModule>
    [/QUOTE]
    
    But the roundcube only works on (show login screen only):
    
    [url]https://maindomain.com:8080/webmail[/url]
    
    Whats is missing on the guide?
    
    Trying access from any other domain i get:
    
    [url]http://otherdomain.com/webmail[/url]
    ERROR 500 - Internal Server Error!
    
    
    And therenothing on /varlog/apache2/access.log or /varlog/apache2/error.log
    Im on debian 6, fresh install once more time...

    You wasn't Following the Easy Roundcube over SSL guide, but the Extending Perfect Server guide.

    The first guide, assumes some things in the beggining. Did you follow them?
    The second uses https and a different port (the lines that you haven't add)

    What things you mean?

    I have an multiserver enviroment working, one server for mail, other for web, other for database, other 2 for dns.

    I just dindt added the squirrell mail, was choosing between horde and roundcube so i tried folow this tutorial:

    http://www.howtoforge.com/virtual-m...servers-on-debian-squeeze-with-ispconfig-3-p4

    To increase the security, and followed the setup for get roundcube working, but dindt worked...

    To increase security you have to redirect to https.
    Do you enabled ssl access (https) for ispconfig?
    If yes, you should redirect roundcube.
    If no, normally, you can access roundcube at
    http://youdomain.xx/webmail
    or
    http://yourdomain.xx/roundcube

    ALL THE ABOVE are correct for SINGLE server setup.

    I assume that for multiserver setup, you have to install roundcube at the same server as the webserver and configure roundcube accordingly.
    Or you have to install another apache at the same server as mail (VERY BAD CHOISE).

    In every case if you want ssl you need the redirection. If you don't want ssl you sould be able to access the /webmail based on the config file at:
    /etc/apache2/conf.d/roundcube.conf

    I`m not willing enable https, since i only have one IP, and i`m behind NAT...
    Because this i have ignored the 2 lines for https, there an note:

    Like i sayed, i dont wanna SSL, so i have ignored those 2 steps from the guide...


    The title of post i was following says :

    Multisever setup, because this i was following the guide:

    http://www.howtoforge.com/virtual-m...servers-on-debian-squeeze-with-ispconfig-3-p4

    The problem is exact it, i dont wanna the SSL, i dindt have setted anything to SSL, but the results is send me to SSL, only for see the login screen, since the authentication is failing, but this is an issue with my mailserver.
    I think i need set on

    /etc/apache2/conf.d/roundcube.conf

    To use TLS, i see an example to add tls://mail.domain.com, i tried and failed too, i`m not sure if i will need set an account info to do the login, and if using this info on other fields of this file, other domains dont gonna get the right accounts on authentication.

    Sorry but i`m learning how mail system works.

    can you post the /etc/apache2/conf.d/roundcube.conf
     
  12. 8omas

    8omas Member HowtoForge Supporter

    One more thing.
    You have to tell roundcube which is your mailserver at /etc/roundcube/main.inc.php
     
  13. Wisdown

    Sure here is:

     
  14. Wisdown

    My main.inc.php

    I have changed the domain name, but is like the example, mail.mydomain.com

    8omas Member HowtoForge Supporter

    In /etc/roundcube/main.inc.php you have:
    Code:
    // the mail host chosen to perform the log-in
    // leave blank to show a textbox at login, give a list of hosts
    // to display a pulldown menu or set one host as string.
    // To use SSL/TLS connection, enter hostname with prefix ssl:// or tls://
    $rcmail_config['default_host'] = 'tls://mail.server.com';
    Is this your mail server?
    You must edit this file to reflect your servers

    Sorry for the delay on asnwer, i`m on exams at university.

    I changed the realname of my server before post here.

    Instead use the previous guide, i did an manual instalation and worked fine, so i think for me the best way is keep roundcube in manual mode instead be able to use the previous guide allowing have automatic updates with:

    apt-get -y install upgrade
