Yes your sasl authentication is failing make sure that the details you used for the pam_mysql configuration is correct and can actually connect to the database using them.

Hi, sorry I forget to update pam_mysql password from hordepassword to acctual horde password .. anyway I get the same error as in previous screen shots just different things in horde.log now .. what did I miss now ?

I suggest that you run through the tutorial with the defaults on a testbox first, then do the modifications for your environment later.

[c0mrade]

thank you for your replies, by default you mean same values you used ?

i'm getting this error in the maillog while i login the first time with a new account :

Jul 12 12:05:19 whiskey imap[15489]: autocreate_sieve: Unable to open sieve script /etc/default_sieve. Check permissions
Jul 12 12:05:19 whiskey imap[15489]: autocreate_sieve: User testx1@whiskey.xxx.com, default sieve script creation failed
Jul 12 12:05:19 whiskey imap[15517]: accepted connection

Due to this i'm missing the sent-mail, draft, spam, trash on imp. The folders are created as you can see below, but the user can't access them.

Jul 12 12:05:19 whiskey imap[15489]: autocreateinbox: User testx1@whiskey.xxx.com, subfolder INBOX.sent-mail creation succeeded.
Jul 12 12:05:19 whiskey imap[15489]: autocreateinbox: User testx1@whiskey.xxx.com, subscription to INBOX.sent-mail succeeded
...etc

This seems to be related with this on imapd.conf :

autocreate_sieve_script: /etc/default_sieve
autocreate_sieve_compiledscript: /etc/default_sieve_script.bc

i tryed changing this to another directory and chowned it as cyrus:mail, i even tryied with 777 permissions but still i'm getting this message.

What could be causing this?

Thanks

What's the output of

ls -la /etc/default_sieve

?

[topdog]

you only have to enable those options if you want to use the default scripts.

[shernand]

topdog - you are correct, the sieve script issue seems not to be related with the mailbox issue, but i still only can access the inbox with any account. I can't access drafts, sent-mail,etc. Do you have any idea why it's creating the folders and not allowing any users to access them?.

falko - no such file/directory

Thanks

--Shernand

[topdog]

That is possibly because due to the sieve scripts not existing the auto subscription part did not work.

Make sure that the auto subscription option in your config has the correct directories, then create a new email address and access it or send a mail to it and see if the subscription does work.

For the existing accounts you can use cm to subscribe the user to the mailboxes.
