There is a new version of this tutorial available for Ubuntu 20.04 (Focal Fossa).

The Perfect Server - Ubuntu 14.04 (Apache2, PHP, MySQL, PureFTPD, BIND, Dovecot, ISPConfig 3) - Page 6

21 Install SquirrelMail

To install the SquirrelMail webmail client, run

apt-get install squirrelmail

Then configure SquirrelMail:

squirrelmail-configure

We must tell SquirrelMail that we are using Dovecot-IMAP/-POP3:

Now we will configure SquirrelMail so that you can use it from within your web sites (created through ISPConfig) by using the /squirrelmail or /webmail aliases. So if your website is www.example.com, you will be able to access SquirrelMail using www.example.com/squirrelmail or www.example.com/webmail.

SquirrelMail's Apache configuration is in the file /etc/squirrelmail/apache.conf, but this file isn't loaded by Apache because it is not in the /etc/apache2/conf-available/ directory. Therefore we create a symlink called squirrelmail.conf in the /etc/apache2/conf-available/ directory that points to /etc/squirrelmail/apache.conf and reload Apache afterwards:

cd /etc/apache2/conf-available/ 
ln -s ../../squirrelmail/apache.conf squirrelmail.conf 
service apache2 reload

Now open /etc/apache2/conf.d/squirrelmail.conf...

 vi /etc/apache2/conf-available/squirrelmail.conf

... and add the following lines to the <Directory /usr/share/squirrelmail></Directory> container that make sure that mod_php is used for accessing SquirrelMail, regardless of what PHP mode you select for your website in ISPConfig:

[...]
<Directory /usr/share/squirrelmail>
  Options FollowSymLinks
  <IfModule mod_php5.c>
    AddType application/x-httpd-php .php
    php_flag magic_quotes_gpc Off
    php_flag track_vars On
    php_admin_flag allow_url_fopen Off
    php_value include_path .
    php_admin_value upload_tmp_dir /var/lib/squirrelmail/tmp
    php_admin_value open_basedir /usr/share/squirrelmail:/etc/squirrelmail:/var/lib/squirrelmail:/etc/hostname:/etc/mailname
    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>
[...]

Create the directory /var/lib/squirrelmail/tmp...

mkdir /var/lib/squirrelmail/tmp

... and make it owned by the user www-data:

chown www-data /var/lib/squirrelmail/tmp

Next we need to enable the squirrelmail with apache2.

a2enconf squirrelmail

Reload Apache again:

service apache2 reload

That's it already - /etc/apache2/conf-available/squirrelmail.conf defines an alias called /squirrelmail that points to SquirrelMail's installation directory /usr/share/squirrelmail.

You can now access SquirrelMail from your web site as follows:

http://192.168.2.251/squirrelmail 
http://www.example.com/squirrelmail

You can also access it from the ISPConfig control panel vhost (after you have installed ISPConfig, see the next chapter) as follows (this doesn't need any configuration in ISPConfig):

http://server1.example.com:8080/squirrelmail

If you'd like to use the alias /webmail instead of /squirrelmail, simply open /etc/apache2/conf-available/squirrelmail.conf...

vi /etc/apache2/conf-available/squirrelmail.conf

... and add the line Alias /webmail /usr/share/squirrelmail:

Alias /squirrelmail /usr/share/squirrelmail
Alias /webmail /usr/share/squirrelmail
[...]

Then reload Apache:

service apache2 reload

Now you can access Squirrelmail as follows:

http:// 192.168.2.251/webmail
http://www.example.com/webmail
http://server1.example.com:8080/webmail (after you have installed ISPConfig, see the next chapter)



If you'd like to define a vhost like webmail.example.com where your users can access SquirrelMail, you'd have to add the following vhost configuration to /etc/apache2/conf-available/squirrelmail.conf:


vi /etc/apache2/conf-available/squirrelmail.conf








[...]
<VirtualHost 1.2.3.4:80>
  DocumentRoot /usr/share/squirrelmail
  ServerName webmail.example.com
</VirtualHost>








Make sure you replace 1.2.3.4 with the correct IP address of your server. Of course, there must be a DNS record for webmail.example.com that points to the IP address that you use in the vhost configuration. Also make sure that the vhost webmail.example.com does not exist in ISPConfig (otherwise both vhosts will interfere with each other!).


Now reload Apache...


service apache2 reload


... and you can access SquirrelMail under http://webmail.example.com!


22. Optional: Script to cross-check the installations.


I have introduced a script here which will verify, whether you have made any typos error. This will verify that all the necessary installations are completed as per the tutorial. Script is as follows:

23. Install ISPConfig 3


To install ISPConfig 3 from the latest released version, do this:


cd /tmp 
wget http://www.ispconfig.org/downloads/ISPConfig-3-stable.tar.gz 
tar xfz ISPConfig-3-stable.tar.gz 
cd ispconfig3_install/install/


The next step is to run


php -q install.php


This will start the ISPConfig 3 installer. The installer will configure all services like Postfix, Dovecot, etc. for you. A manual setup as required for ISPConfig 2 (perfect setup guides) is not necessary.

The installer automatically configures all underlying services, so no manual configuration is needed.


You now also have the possibility to let the installer create an SSL vhost for the ISPConfig control panel, so that ISPConfig can be accessed using https:// instead of http://. To achieve this, just press ENTER when you see this question: Do you want a secure (SSL) connection to the ISPConfig web interface (y,n) [y]:.


Afterwards you can access ISPConfig 3 under http(s)://server1.example.com:8080/ or http(s)://192.168.2.251:8080/ ( http or https depends on what you chose during installation). Log in with the username admin and the password admin (you should change the default password after your first login):


 







The system is now ready to be used.


 



 


Additional Notes


OpenVZ


If the Ubuntu server that you've just set up in this tutorial is an OpenVZ container (virtual machine), you should do this on the host system (I'm assuming that the ID of the OpenVZ container is 101 - replace it with the correct VPSID on your system):


VPSID=101 
for CAP in CHOWN DAC_READ_SEARCH SETGID SETUID NET_BIND_SERVICE NET_ADMIN SYS_CHROOT SYS_NICE CHOWN DAC_READ_SEARCH SETGID SETUID NET_BIND_SERVICE NET_ADMIN SYS_CHROOT SYS_NICE 
do 
  vzctl set $VPSID --capability ${CAP}:on --save 
done

You missed to install these packages
php-auth
php-pear
You need to install these packages. To install these packages you need to run the command apt-get install package_name
 You can cross check the particular installation as follows:
dpkg -l | grep package_name | cut -d ' ' -f3


If it is showing the package_name then you can ignore the package.

Check the mysql errr log file:

maybe you made a mistake while you edited the my.cnf file.

vi /etc/apache2/conf.d/squirrelmail.conf


 The correct path is: /etc/apache2/conf-available/squirrelmail.conf


bye bye ;)

Success: https://server.magiccamera.info:8080


Hosted on a VirtualBox on a mac mini under my telly. Time to Clone it in current state :D


 Thanks for the excellent tutorial. Trying to get the manual but link seems to be broken or the pdf is damaged.


 Anyway, using the ISPConfig beats using MAC OS X Server for Mavericks hands down.

Hi,





I followed your complete tutorial without any error But when I'm accessing ispconfig as http://domain.com:8080 or https://domain.com:8080 then nothing works.





Can you please guide me how can I fix it? I'm stuck not to trace it. I follow your steps under Windows Azure Virtual Machine.

Hi.


According to the cross-check:-


 You missed to install these packages 
php-auth
php-pear
postfix-mysql 
You need to install these packages. To install these packages you need to run the command apt-get install package_name
 You can cross check the particular installation as follows:
dpkg -l | grep package_name | cut -d ' ' -f3


 


The package postfix-mysql i could install.


So that issue was fixed. 


However, the packages php-auth and php-pear result as already installed when i do an apt-get install on them.


But cross-check script shows they are missing. 


Any ideas why ?


I don't want to go and install ispconfig3 with this error showing and i have checked everything a zillion times now ...arrggg..


 NB Squirrel mail is working.

If apt Shows them as instaled when you run:


apt-get install php-auth php-pear


then you can ignore the error from cross check and proceed with the ispconfig installation.

If you change the ordering of the ubuntu_package_check.sh script, it wont show up the php-auth and php-pear as missing - the comparison is line by line, in alphanumeric ordering


Need to re-order as follows
[...]
php-auth
php-pear
php5
php5-cgi
php5-cli
php5-common
php5-curl
php5-fpm
php5-gd
php5-imagick
php5-imap
php5-intl
php5-mcrypt
php5-memcache
php5-memcached
php5-ming
php5-mysql
php5-ps
php5-pspell
php5-recode
php5-snmp
php5-sqlite
php5-tidy
php5-xcache
php5-xmlrpc
php5-xsl
phpmyadmin
[...]

I have gone through with the proceedure to install ispconfig a few times.


My comment is it is difficult to get everything right, especially if you have two-fingered typing skills like me.


 


This time, I used the following command to monitor my system log whilst i was working in another terminal window:-


 tail -f /var/log/syslog


This allows you to see the system log responses to all the commands you enter.


Thus, if you make a mistake, you can see the error messages.


Perhaps you could in some way use this in your install procedure to allow the 2-fingered typists to get feedback vis-a-vis their typing errors before the whole install gets messed up ?

The install guides are made in a way that you can copy the command lines right to your shell window, so nearly no typing is required. The only cases were you have to type something in is when your Domain Name or IP address are required for an file. If you have a Windows Desktop, then you can use putty to connect to your Server and copy / paste the commands.

Hello


 


 I am sorry to ask this question here, I have tried to search the forums and the FAQs, but I couldn't find a solution to my problem


 I have installed ISPConfig3 on Ubuntu14.04 LTS following this guide, I have everything working except for the "Email" section/tab on the ISPConfig admin. When I click on the "Email" tab  I get the left sidebar opened, but when I click on any of the menu items of the sidebar like Domain, Mailboxes etc, nothing shows up on the right. I don't know what I have done wrong. So now I can not add email domains and user email boxes and I cannot do anything under the "Email" Section. 


 I have purchased the ISPConfig3 Manual and I tried to setup emails according to the manual, but still I can't get any of the forms under the email section/tab


 During setup, the only file I failed to get is the apache2.2-common, it was the only one not available on my sources.


 


Any help is highly appreciated

I guess you created a alias /mail instead of the alias /webmail for squirrelmail. a alias /mail will override the mail module from ispconfig and Forwards all requests to squirrelmail instead.

I have followed this guide 4 times from scratch and every single time I am unable to receive email from outside sources. I can send fine, and I can receive email from my own server but not any email from outside of my server.

Probably a firewall issue. Try to access your server from outside using telnet like this. 


telnet your.server.address.com 25


If you can't contact it then you know your ISP is blocking port 25.

Hello. When installing ISPConfig, I didn't get the part that asks the following question:


 


--- Do you want a secure (SSL) connection to the ISPConfig web interface (y,n) [y]:


 


As a result I can't access the ISPConfig control panel, both http and https give me a bad request error that reads as follows:


 


--- error --- 


Bad Request 


Your browser sent a request that this server could not understand. 


Reason:You're speaking plain HTTP to an SSL-enabled server port. Instead use the HTTPS scheme to access this URL,


---


 


 


I don't know what I have done wrong, but after the installer finished installing ISPConfig it just exited and returned to the command prompt after the following lines:


 ---


 Restarting ftp server: Running: /usr/sbin/pure-ftpd-mysql-virtualchroot -l mysql:/etc/pure-ftpd/db/mysql.conf -l pam -D -b -A -H -O clf:/var/log/pure-ftpd/transfer.log -8 UTF-8 -E -Y 1 -u 1000 -B


Installation completed.

Please help. What did I miss?

I had the same thing happen, no question for installing SSL.  It seems that SSL is now installed by default.  I can access my server just fine on https://myserver.com:8080.  The error you received says that it is SSL enabled so maybe an issue with your browser.

If you want to allow only FTPS on pure-ftpd, you need to do this:


nano /etc/pure-ftpd/conf/TLS


   Then change the number to "2", instead of 1 or 0.


0 will not allow TLS connections, only plain FTP.


1 will allow both plain FTP and FTPS.


2 will only allow FTPS connections.


Best regards,

Hi, great tutorial as always. Thanks.


I've just gone from Proxmox 3 to 4. They have replaced OpenVZ with LXC. Do we have to do somthing special at the end like for OpenVZ
