Hello,

I followed these instructions here http://www.ispconfig.org/docs/INSTALL_DEBIAN_4.0.txt to install the latest ISPConfig Control Panel on my Debian 4.0 OpenVZ VPS box and everything went smooth. When I clicked on monitor services, i saw this :

Any idea what's wrong? and possible fixes for it? I am giving a second go with ISPConfig after the first attempt and I must say, I am loving the changes. So far, only 1 porblem.

Thanks in advance for any info.

Your postfix server seems to be stopped.

Could you in a terminal, as root, restart it?

I don't know debian, but with Ubuntu you have to run:

Code:

/etc/init.d/postfix restart

If it's fail, please let us know the mail error log

Still with Ubuntu:

Code:

/var/log/mail.err

Thanks for that info, check this out :-

# /etc/init.d/postfix restart
Stopping Postfix Mail Transport Agent: postfix.
Starting Postfix Mail Transport Agent: postfixpostfix: warning: valid_hostname: numeric hostname: 69.162.xxx.xxx
postfix: fatal: file /etc/postfix/main.cf: parameter myhostname: bad parameter value: 69.162.xxx.xxx
failed!

So, i editted the main.cf and changed the hostname value to mydomain.tld and now it's working (i think). Let me send and recieve a few emails and see if it's working.

Okay now that the SMTP server was online, i setup the webmail and I did a config test and it said everything was fine. So, when I tried to login, i got the following bizzare error :-

Oki it's great, tell us if it's OK (I think)..

If you would not have change hostnames, I would have told you to do

Code:

dpkg-reconfigure postfix

and a GUI would have do it for you

But...

Isn't there a module in ISPConfig 3 which do it?
Because if so (I don't know ISP 3 yet) the problem will reapear after the next cron-job...

Oups, crossed messages..

Is your webmail correctly configured?

Are the ISPConfig 3 modules correctly used and configured? It's seems you may have config files which have been edited manually and automatically.

Perhaps you may update ISPConfig 3...

Code:

ispconfig_update_from_svn.sh

...and redo all your configuration...

Did you send an email to the new account? The Maildir gets created automatically when the first email arrives.
