Hi I'm running a multiserver environment, where my main server have installed Mail,Web,DNS,File,DB. On the second server i have installed using the following command : "wget -O - xxxxx://get.ispconfig.org | sh -s -- --no-dns --use-php=system --use-unbound --interactive". If i create an email box using the domain i need, in the main server.... i can login in roundcube with that account. If i do the exact same thing, but using the second server, i cannot login to roundcube... the message in the log file is : "AUTHENTICATE PLAIN: Authentication failed. in /usr/share/roundcube/program/lib/Roundcube/rcube_imap.php on line 204 (POST /webmail/?_task=login&_action=login)" Any help would be appreciated. Thanks
I'm not sure I understand the problem, but remind you that ISPConfig panel can only be used on the main host. If that was not the cause, describe more what you mean by
Thanks for your answer. I will try to be more specific. I've followed the guide "ISPConfig Perfect Multiserver setup on Ubuntu 20.04 and Debian 10 and Debian 11", but only installed main server and a second one for mail. For the mail server, instead of running the command : "wget -O - xxxxx://get.ispconfig.org | sh -s -- --no-dns --no-roundcube --no-mailman --use-php=system --use-unbound --interactive", i used "wget -O - xxxxx://get.ispconfig.org | sh -s -- --no-dns --use-php=system --use-unbound --interactive". I will then create a domain in the "EMail" Tab, and as server i specify the second server. i will then create an email mailbox. When i try to access roundcube, using the credentials created before.... i get an authentication failed. I will then delete the mailbox, and the domain created for the mail. I will then create a domain in the "EMail" Tab, and as server i specify the main server (since i installed mail service in the main server also). i will then create an email mailbox, and when i try to access roundcube everything works. I'm pretty sure, that is something i'm doing wrong.... but i can't figure it out what . Thanks for your help
Run the common issues script on both servers and post the report. https://forum.howtoforge.com/threads/please-read-before-posting.58408/ The multiserver guide does not install roundcube on the second mail server, so I am not sure if having it on two servers is supposed to work. Maybe @Th0m can clarify?
So, i've installed the mail server once again, but this time i've used the "no-roundcube" and the "no-mailman" switches... but unfortunatelly the result is the same. As your request, i've runned the script on both servers, and here are the results : Main Server htf_report: Code: ##### SERVER ##### IP-address (as per hostname): ***.***.***.*** [WARN] could not determine server's ip address by ifconfig [INFO] OS version is Ubuntu 20.04.5 LTS [INFO] uptime: 18:36:12 up 5:34, 1 user, load average: 0.00, 0.02, 0.02 [INFO] memory: total used free shared buff/cache available Mem: 7.8Gi 2.5Gi 2.9Gi 310Mi 2.4Gi 4.7Gi Swap: 4.0Gi 0B 4.0Gi [INFO] systemd failed services status: UNIT LOAD ACTIVE SUB DESCRIPTION ● snap.lxd.activate.service loaded failed failed Service for snap application lxd.activate LOAD = Reflects whether the unit definition was properly loaded.

Can you share the Roundcube configs on both server? Are you trying to login to a account through Roundcube on server2 when the email account is on server1 or vice versa? That does not work of course, unless you set up mirroring. What is shown regarding logins at that time in the mail.log?
If you install server1 with mail and roundcube and server2 with mail and roundcube, it should both work fine (on it's own server). I prefer having a separate server for the webmail, which is set up later in the guide.
I think i've found the problem... In Roundcube config, i was not pointing to the second server.... Too damn stupid of me.... Thanks for your help
