Roundcube problem, AJAX popup: An error occurred! Server Error! (Internal Server Error)

Hello there,

I tried a lot of things trying to solve this, but I've run out of alternatives to test.
I got a complaint of rejected emails from Gmail, and it seems I have some problems with PTR records.

So I went into the webmail to try to test sending an email and I got this error. The actions I've tested to fire the AJAX call are action=autocomplete and action=refresh


Everything seems to point to a php error when trying to get the contact lists or checking email.
I've tested with accounts of two domains and also logged in at server1...:8080/webmail

(In this screen I can see the Content Security Policy that is not in the single domain/webmail. I don't think that is related to the error, but I can be wrong.)

The server is a fresh installation of The Perfect Server - Debian 10 (Buster) with Apache, BIND, Dovecot, PureFTPD and ISPConfig 3.1
ISPConfig upgraded to 3.2.2

I did remove --purge of the whole Roundcube and installed it again with the steps of the previous tutorial, and it does the same thing. So I think the problem may be related to apache or the PHP used or even file permissions, but I checked quite a bit and I don't see anything unusual.

I have installed the PHP package from SURY with these steps

Thanks Th0m. Just received the answer of the network provider, and it's on the way.
Error 500 is my hurry now to allow receiving and sending emails by webmail.

 

Hello till,
I think the problem is on that way.
Anyway php7.3 was already active, but it gives a couple of conflicts to consider that I don't know if are related to the problem.
I attach below the console outputs. I always get those perl: warning from the locale.
Also attached php7.3.conf. Tell me if I can add info more useful.

php7.3.conf

Code:

root@server1:/etc/apache2/mods-enabled# cat php7.3.conf
<FilesMatch ".+\.ph(ar|p|tml)$">
    SetHandler application/x-httpd-php
</FilesMatch>
<FilesMatch ".+\.phps$">
    SetHandler application/x-httpd-php-source
    # Deny access to raw php sources by default
    # To re-enable it's recommended to enable access to the files
    # only in specific virtual host or directory
    Require all denied
</FilesMatch>
# Deny access to files without filename (e.g. '.php')
<FilesMatch "^\.ph(ar|p|ps|tml)$">
    Require all denied
</FilesMatch>

# Running PHP scripts in user directories is disabled by default
#
# To re-enable PHP in user directories comment the following lines
# (from <IfModule ...> to </IfModule>.) Do NOT set it to On as it
# prevents .htaccess files from disabling it.
<IfModule mod_userdir.c>
    <Directory /home/*/public_html>
        php_admin_flag engine Off
    </Directory>
</IfModule>

 

Only mod enable is php7.3. Available are php7.3 php7.4 php8.0

ERROR: Module php5 does not exist!

I'm not really sure what is this. I've just followed the tutorials I said in first post.

The perfect server first, then How to install PHP 5.6 and 7.0 - 7.4 as PHP-FPM & FastCGI for ISPConfig 3.1 with apt on Debian 8 to 10

-->Plus this tutorial of multiple PHP, I copy the item 5.6 Install PHP 7.4...

Code:

apt-get install php7.4 php7.4-cli php7.4-cgi php7.4-fpm php7.4-gd php7.4-mysql php7.4-imap php7.4-curl php7.4-intl php7.4-pspell php7.4-sqlite3 php7.4-tidy php7.4-xmlrpc php7.4-xsl php7.4-zip php7.4-mbstring php7.4-soap php7.4-opcache libonig5 php7.4-common php7.4-json php7.4-readline php7.4-xml

...and replaced all to 8.0 to install php8.0, after a couple of issues with packages I could install it... I remember some problems with acpu module.
I've also did apt-get install --reinstall of item '5.5 Install PHP 7.3' and items 7 and 8 for optional extensions

About Considering dependency and Considering conflict, I could see in .load files these things

I'm really lost here. I don't know what can I do or what can I test.

 

Thanks Jesse Norell,
Just mpm_prefork is enabled. I think that's ok, right ?

The output is

 

Hi till,
That was quite informative, and I found a couple of problems.
First I had certificate problems on the server url, but not on the domain, then I’ve created an empty website in ISPConfig with the name of the server to give it the Let’s encrypt certificates.

Then I’ve created /usr/share/roundcube/info_.php and I get “File not found.” with https://server/roundcube/info_.php

Then I created /var/lib/rouncube/info.php and works well with https://server/roundcube/info.php and also with https://thedomain/roundcube/info.php

This is the weird:
It’s showing PHP Version 8.0.1
I think this should be the problem.

As I showed before I’ve selected php7.3 with update-alternatives
And I’ve tried also update-alternatives --set php /usr/bin/php7.3
phpinfo don’t change the version.

BTW also test with php8 and enabling its mod
a2dismod php7.3
a2enmod php8.0

(service apache2 restart was also done in each test)

Finally, I set all to 7.3 but never change, always use PHP Version 8.0.1
Then I assume that the thing is change to 7.3 by default, but I’m “googling” if exists another way of update-alternatives method.

I don't know, should I uninstall all php and install them again ?

 

Hi Th0m, thanks
till send me the same before, and I've posted the results after his post above
https://www.howtoforge.com/communit...rror-internal-server-error.86323/#post-417803

Anyway the outputs, now with 'sudo'just in case

 

I did the following and the phpinfo change to PHP Version 7.3.26-1+0~20210112.74+debian10~1.gbpd78724

But I don't know if this is OK to be disabled.
With the change of the PHP version I'm not getting the ajax error on autocomplete or refresh but on try to send I get
SMTP Error (220): Authentication failed.

 

Yes, it is. That was the problem. It solved now. Thanks till and all staff members. Guys you're the best.

BTW, for SMTP Error (220): Authentication failed I've changed /etc/roundcube/config.inc.php
$config['smtp_server'] = 'tls://%h'; --> $config['smtp_server'] = '';

All seems to be working now.
Thanks!!
