[shadowspank]

I have played around with the ispconfig everything seems to work right I installed the plug in for webmail and I was unable to login I checked the pop3 server status and it shows its not running how do I start this service. thanks

Which distribution do you use? Did you follow any of the "Perfect Setup" tutorials?

i have exactly the same problem i'm running Suse 10.0 and did the setup discribed in "the perfect setup"

thanks rudi

please post the output of the command:

netstat -tap

I did not use any of the perfect setup. I had just installed the server and when I installed it I ment it to be a webhosting server so I installed dns apache mysql php post fix and so on. I might not have installed the pop3 if so how do I go about solving this thanks. I am useing Fedora core 4. the install went really smooth with no errors so I tought everything was working I had to start up apache on my own as I saw that as not running in the ispconfig site but pop3 still shows as not running.

You can try to install dovecot:
yum install dovecot

I have installed the server I get this error when trying to use webmail. Does not seem to be running.

Warning: fsockopen() [function.fsockopen]: unable to connect to localhost:110 (Connection refused) in /home/admispconfig/ispconfig/web/webmail/inc/class.uebimiau_mail.php on line 66

I used the command yum -y update and the mail started with out problems but now ispconfig is not letting me login.

Sorry I jumpped the gun the service was not running all I had to do was start it thats funny because after I did the yum update everthing was running but not mysqld

[crack3001]

how do i start the pop3 server without the yum update and without stopping my mysql?

because i think it is also not running at my configuration.

thank you

Go to the directory:

/etc/init.d

There you will find several scripts to start and stop services. Search for scripts with "pop" or "imap" in the name and start them with:

./name-of-the-script start

If you dont have these scripts, you can try to restart the xinetd daemon:

/etc/init.d/xinetd restart

[LazyAdmin]

To start a service manually, type:
service <servicename> start

To get a list of services type:
chkconfig --list

This will also tell you if/when each service gets started at boot time.

To figure out how turn on a service at boot time, type:
man chkconfig

I was not able to get it running with out the yum update. It did not slow down my system much when I did the update I did it all remotely. if its a server that is live I would just do the update and start mysqld and the mail server right when its done. Sorry i dont have any more advise but from what I have found everyone that installed this pop3 server needed to do the update.

Please post the output of chkconfig --list

[shadowspank]

I got it running I was trying to replay to the person that is having the same proglem I was saying he should do yum update.
