SquirrelMail 1.5.0 was released before PHP 5.2.0. In PHP 5.1.0-5.1.2 some very specific language construct was modified or fixed. SquirrelMail 1.5.0 used that construct. Result is "SM 1.5.0" + "PHP 5.1+" = "can't send emails" Debian made a mistake by packaging devel version of SquirrelMail.

[SM-USERS] load continuously for some emails in some languages with utf-8 charset
Using the newest version of SquirrelMail which is newly installed without any plugins/locale, if the inbox contains the attached email http://old.nabble.com/file/p29008490/abc.tar.gz abc.tar.gz , while I use Chinese Trad language as my webmail interface, it will load continuously and cause 100% CPU loading.

That's no squirrelmail problem but a problem related to your webserver (maybe "Apache"). *.php files called as web side have to be readable by the webserver (user or group). I've seen many web applications which set all rights to 777 - that's nasty, that's not necessary. On my machine(s) there runs Apache with "wwwrun:www". I set the rights for the squirrelmail directory to cd /path/to/squirrelmail chgrp -R www squirrel* chmod -R o-rwx squirrel* chmod -R g+rX squirrel* Viele Gruesse!

Now that we eliminated SquirrelMail 1.5.0 issues with newer PHP version, lets continue. Could you show your SquirrelMail configuration. Run 'squirrelmail-configure' on your server select 2 for "Server Settings", select B for "Update SMTP or Sendmail Settings" Show configuration options from 4 to 8. When you send emails, what kind of error you see in SquirrelMail? "Cannot send emails" does not explain why you think that you can't send emails. If your website application can send emails and it is PHP based, application uses standard PHP mail() function. SquirrelMail does not do that. SquirrelMail uses local SMTP service by default. It must be reconfigured in order to send through /usr/sbin/sendmail like mail() function does and even then SquirrelMail can hit restrictions that don't apply to mail(). -- Tomas -- This SF.net email is sponsored by Sprint What will you do first with EVO, the first 4G phone?

You are absolutely right, after lots of digging it seems Dovecot caches the authentication when using plain text auth which as webmail was accessing locally it was doing. Editing /etc/dovecot.conf and changing auth_cache_ttl from 3600 to a lower value like 300 and restarting dovecot seemed to work perfectly. Thank you all for your help and a a great product.

Debian does not have apache user. It uses www-data:www-data. Never ask people to modify files created by operating system packager unless you know that OS and have information that existing package is broken. "Never mess in /usr, unless it is /usr/local". That's golden rule for any package based Linux distro. Especially when distribution has better update tools than rpm. All changes will be lost when package is updated. "client denied by server configuration" is not related to file system permissions. It is Apache configuration restriction. In case of Debian it is Limit directives in their apache configuration for SquirrelMail. -- Tomas -- This SF.net email is sponsored by Sprint What will you do first with EVO, the first 4G phone?

Hallo, Alf, Du meintest am 28.06.10: I am getting the following error when trying to access configtest.php on my Apache2 server on my Debian server [Mon Jun 28 09:28:08 2010] [error] [client 41.28.52.171] client denied by server configuration: /usr/share/squirrelmail/src/configtest.php How do I fix this? >>> cd /path/to/squirrelmail >>> chgrp -R www squirrel* >>> chmod -R o-rwx squirrel* >>> chmod -R g+rX squirrel* >> find /usr/share/squirrelmail/* -type d -exec chmod 755 {} \; >> find /usr/share/squirrelmail/* -type f -exec chmod 644 {} \; >> chown -R apache /usr/share/squirrelmail/*; >> chgrp -R apache /usr/share/squirrelmail/*; > Tried that and I still do not have success. What tells the apache log? Maybe "/var/log/apache2/error_log" Does the apache include the special squirrelmail path into its configuration? Viele Gruesse!

It is replaceable, but if user messed up permissions, we will have only one solution. purge package, make sure that there are no files left in /usr/share/squirrelmail, reinstall and we will restart problem debugging. It only prolongs debugging. And now we can't be sure that user haven't messed up permissions. His config.php was readable when he could not access configtest.php. Now it is not. -- Tomas -- This SF.net email is sponsored by Sprint What will you do first with EVO, the first 4G phone?

Now > it is not. if you are moaning that the ownerships are wrong tell him what to do to put them permissions right, it is not a big deal. I did not tell him to do anything I was sharing my experience. he is running an email server so we can guess he has a clue. it is now half-past six and the guy asked the question at 2 or something. You can assert now what the problem is. I know how it is to be fighting man pages for hours so I piped up. why not tell him at 2 what to do ? mick -- This SF.net email is sponsored by Sprint What will you do first with EVO, the first 4G phone?
