I've just done a complete rebuild of my VPS and when I try login to mail I get this in my logs: Oct 17 20:00:02 mercury pop3d: chdir freevps.co.uk/ed/: No such file or directory I've looked at: [root@mercury vmail]# ls -al total 5 drwx------ 2 vmail vmail 1024 Oct 17 19:57 . drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 1024 Oct 17 18:49 .. -rw-r--r-- 1 vmail vmail 24 Oct 17 18:49 .bash_logout -rw-r--r-- 1 vmail vmail 191 Oct 17 18:49 .bash_profile -rw-r--r-- 1 vmail vmail 124 Oct 17 18:49 .bashrc [root@mercury vmail]# pwd /home/vmail Any ideas as to why it can't / won't seem to make the directories? Am i resigned to a new rebuild?
I did a fresh re-install of my new VPS and still no go, so i compared the setup too a server that it seems to work on, here's the settings of the vmail directory of the one that isn't working: Code: [root@mercury home]# ls -al total 3 drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 1024 Oct 17 21:56 . drwxr-xr-x 20 root root 1024 Oct 17 22:20 .. drwx------ 2 vmail vmail 1024 Oct 17 21:56 vmail [root@mercury home]# cd vmail [root@mercury vmail]# ls -al total 5 drwx------ 2 vmail vmail 1024 Oct 17 21:56 . drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 1024 Oct 17 21:56 .. -rw-r--r-- 1 vmail vmail 24 Oct 17 21:56 .bash_logout -rw-r--r-- 1 vmail vmail 191 Oct 17 21:56 .bash_profile -rw-r--r-- 1 vmail vmail 124 Oct 17 21:56 .bashrc [root@mercury vmail]# and heres the code of the one that is working: Code: [root@vps home]# ls -al total 132 drwxr-xr-x 4 root root 4096 Oct 17 06:07 . drwxr-xr-x 23 root root 4096 Oct 18 00:45 .. drwxr-x--- 3 root root 4096 Sep 15 2005 apf-0.9.6-1 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 91798 Aug 16 09:26 apf-current.tar.gz drwx------ 3 vmail vmail 4096 Oct 17 07:31 vmail [root@vps home]# cd vmail [root@vps vmail]# ls -al total 44 drwx------ 3 vmail vmail 4096 Oct 17 07:31 . drwxr-xr-x 4 root root 4096 Oct 17 06:07 .. -rw-r--r-- 1 vmail vmail 24 Oct 17 06:07 .bash_logout -rw-r--r-- 1 vmail vmail 191 Oct 17 06:07 .bash_profile -rw-r--r-- 1 vmail vmail 124 Oct 17 06:07 .bashrc drwx------ 3 vmail vmail 4096 Oct 17 07:31 domain.co.uk [root@vps vmail]# I'm really puzzled, it's a Fedora Core 5 Setup.
Did you have a look at this tutorial? http://www.howtoforge.com/fedora_virtual_postfix_mysql_quota_courier Did you disable SELinux?
Hi, Yeah I looked SELinux is switched off I fixed it though, by changing my version of MySQL from MySQL 5 to MySQL 4 did the install ... then switched back to MySQL 5 all is working well now
