help link is not working, pop3 is offline

Hi Folks,

I have installed ISPconfig 2.2 on centos 4.2. I got it working but I have 2 issues:
1) when I am trying to create a reseller and I enter the company name and try to click on the image at the right side of the company's name {https://localhost:81/design/default/icons/help14.gif} link to the following address returns:

The connection was refused when attempting to conect test.org:81

2) service show pop3 is of line, I checked some threads and did not find any answer

your help is very appricated
Regards
xian

 

What's the URL you have in /home/admispconfig/ispconfig/lib/config.inc.php? What's the ServerName you have in /root/ispconfig/httpd/conf/httpd.conf?

Do you have a POP3 daemon installed? If so, which one? What's the output of

Code:

netstat -tap

? If it doesn't show up there, try to start your POP3 daemon on the command line.

What should I do?
Thanks

 

You have dovecot installed which provides POP3 services. Please restart dovecot:

Code:

/etc/init.d/dovecot restart

and check again with

Code:

netstat -tap

if POP3 is up then.

 

Hi Falko,
thanks for your help, I just did what you said and still I dont see pop:

thanks

 

And please post the output of

Code:

updatedb
locate dovecot

I guess there must be some kind of configuration file.

 

Hi Falko,
I fix the problem:
to resolve this pop3 issue in centos 4.2, you must edit dovecot.conf file in /etc directory
and add pop3 pop3s to porotocols
# Protocols we want to be serving:
# imap imaps pop3 pop3s
protocols = imap imaps pop3 pop3s

Thanks for puting up with rockies
