Squirrelmail downloads file...

    Main hard drive on my server crashed the other day, so finally get to upgrade to Debian 6 and ISPConfig3 - i'm excited!

    Spent most of yesterday fiddling around and getting acclimated to the new system and I had pretty much everything working flawlessly. I was able to send/receive e-mails no problem, access websites, etc...

    Today though, nothing has changed mind you... now when I try to access my webmail it downloads a file instead of going to the site. Absolutely no settings have been changed manually... so what is going on here?

    www.digitalvibrance.com/webmail

    You can see what I mean... any help would be greatly appreciated!

    ---------------------------
    Edit:
    Found another thread mentioning the same issue, although his resolution was just simply reinstalling everything, which is not a great solution =\

    I did make sure PHP is enabled for the site, have tried a few different settings all to no avail, tried FAST-cgi, mod-PHP, and suPHP but none worked, also checked permissions and "chmod 770 /var/lib/squirrelmail/data/" but nothing again... same result regardless of entering ip address vs domain name...

    exactly the same problem here. test it here: http://zice.ro/webmail
    file gets downloaded and the content of that file says:

    Code:
    <?php
    
    /**
     * index.php
     *
     * Redirects to the login page.
     *

     * @version $Id: index.php 13893 2010-01-25 02:47:41Z pdontthink $
     * @package squirrelmail
     */
    
    // Are we configured yet?
    if( ! file_exists ( 'config/config.php' ) ) {
        echo '<html><body><p><strong>ERROR:</strong> Config file ' .
            '&quot;<tt>config/config.php</tt>&quot; not found. You need to ' .
            'configure SquirrelMail before you can use it.</p></body></html>';
        exit;
    }
    
    // If we are, go ahead to the login page.
    header('Location: src/login.php');
    
    ?>
    but the webmail can perfectly fine be accessed via: https://h1870666.stratoserver.net:8080/webmail/

    and the ls -al of the root web folder is too long to post here, what specifically are you looking for?

    btw. I followed this howto: http://www.howtoforge.com/enabling-...b-sites-on-an-ispconfig-3-server-ubuntu-10.10

    maybe this info helps:

    Code:
    h1870666:/etc/squirrelmail# ls -al

    drwxr-xr-x   2 root root  4096 Apr 14 10:57 .

    h1870666:/etc/squirrelmail# cd config
    bash: cd: config: Too many levels of symbolic links
    h1870666:/etc/squirrelmail#
    
    oh and I do have added the right entries /user/share/squirelmail and /etc/squirrelmail to my php_open_base_dir variable.
    also fixed the above symlinks problem by removing and re-installing squirrelmail according to the ispcfg3 tutorial..

    Does it work with mod_php?

    how would I test that? The squirrelmail config file for apache loads as an alias for all sites...
    I don't want to set all my sites to mod_php :)

    I have set one site to mod_php, waited for the changes to be saved to file and tried: still the same result...

    AddHandler application /x-httpd-php .php .php3 .php4 .php5

    You have to add that line in the conf file of squirrelmail (for roundcube, I used an htaccess file in program folder.)

    That line force squirrelmail to use php_mod instead of xxx_mod configured in your virtual sites.

    Another solution is to edit the file:

    /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/suphp.conf

    and change the lines:

    AddType application/x-httpd-suphp .php .php3 .php4 .php5 .phtml
    suPHP_AddHandler application/x-httpd-suphp

    to:

    #AddType application/x-httpd-suphp .php .php3 .php4 .php5 .phtml
    #suPHP_AddHandler application/x-httpd-suphp

    and then restart apache.

    didn't work, any other ideas or did I do anything wrong?

    here is my squirrelmail conf file:


    Alias /webmail /usr/share/squirrelmail

    <Directory /usr/share/squirrelmail>
    AddHandler application /x-httpd-php .php .php3 .php4 .php5
    Options FollowSymLinks
    <IfModule mod_php5.c>
    php_flag register_globals off
    </IfModule>
    <IfModule mod_dir.c>
    DirectoryIndex index.php
    </IfModule>

    # access to configtest is limited by default to prevent information leak
    <Files configtest.php>
    order deny,allow
    deny from all
    allow from 127.0.0.1
    </Files>
    </Directory>
    .
    .
    .

    It never will work in that way xD

    The same happened to me for roundcube. The vhosts "sethandler none" used to reset php handler, is being read by apache2 AFTER the conf file for roundcube (same for squirrelmail. If you add a handler there, when a user access through a vhost, the handler is reset by the vhost conf file...

    The solution is to add the handler AFTER :p

    go to /usr/share/squirrelmail and see if you have an .htaccess there... add the line at first line in the file. Or see if you have an index php, or whatever, an add the line there :p

    Or just create a .htaccess there :p

    Regards

    Just do what I told you in #9 and remove the addhandler line that you added in the other file.

    I am sorry Till, I missed your answer.
    I have tried it now but it did not work. same problem.


    btw. how would that work? None of my vhosts uses suphp all use fastcgi with suexec...

    and wouldn't your change break all suphp enabled vhosts?

    I need to get squirrelmail going.
    anyone got more tips?

    I just realized that when I go to ispcfg3 => system => server config, the field called PHP open_basedir is limited in length???

    I tired inputting this string:

    [website_path]/web:[website_path]/tmp:/var/www/[website_domain]/web:/srv/www/[website_domain]/web:/usr/share/php5:/usr/share/php/PEAR:/tmp:/usr/share/phpmyadmin:/etc/phpmyadmin:/var/lib/phpmyadmin:/usr/share/php:/var/www/piwik:/usr/share/squirrelmail:/etc/squirrelmail but it gets automatically cut off
    can anyone confirm?

    Try to add in .htaccess inside directory /usr/share/squirrelmail, the following:
    AddHandler application /x-httpd-php .php .php3 .php4 .php5

    Or add it as the first line if you have another file with directives in squirrelmail directory.

    As I could see in roundcube (and others...), setting for vhosts are being read AFTER conf files in apache2... so... with you settings, apache2 reads the addhandler, and next, reads your vhost conf where addhanlder are set to none... so, it will never work, only will work if you set the addhandler AFTER vhost is read...

    Regards

    added this line: AddHandler application /x-httpd-php .php .php3 .php4 .php5

    into /usr/share/squirrelmail/.htaccess , restartet apache2, no change :-(

    In which directory is SquirrelMail located? Can you post the vhost configuration of the vhost where you get the file as a download?

    hmm

    I'm having the same problem.... On the main site on the server everything works great but on sites added its like the php isn't being loaded after you choose the one you want. There are a couple threads that are trying to resolve this problem... I will not give up :)

    Alright got it to work... don't know if its right but comment and tell me what i did wrong...

    went to /etc/apache2/sites-available/(whatever your sites name is).vhost

    Changed

    # Clear PHP settings of this website
    <FilesMatch "\.ph(p3?|tml)$">
    SetHandler None
    </FilesMatch>

    To

    # Clear PHP settings of this website
    <FilesMatch "\.ph(p3?|tml)$">
    AddHandler application /x-httpd-php .php .php3 .php4 .php5
    </FilesMatch>


    it works for now...:)
