[SM-USERS] Can't find existing Data dir on Fedora 15

2011-10-30 Thread sean darcy
running configtest.php:

SquirrelMail configtest

This script will try to check some aspects of your SquirrelMail 
configuration and point you to errors whereever it can find them. You 
need to go run conf.pl in the config/ directory first before you run 
this script.

SquirrelMail version:   1.4.22-2.fc15
Config file version:1.4.0
Config file last modified:  30 October 2011 15:25:44
Checking PHP configuration...
 PHP version 5.3.8 OK.
 Running as N/A(N/A) / N/A(N/A)
 display_errors:
 error_reporting: 22527
 variables_order OK: GPCS.
 PHP extensions OK. Dynamic loading is disabled.
 ERROR: You have configured PHP not to allow short tags 
(short_open_tag=off). This shouldn't be a problem with SquirrelMail or 
any plugin coded coded according to the SquirrelMail Coding Guidelines, 
but if you experience problems with PHP code being displayed in some of 
the pages and changing setting to "on" solves the problem, please file a 
bug report against the failing plugin. The correct contact information 
is most likely to be found in the plugin documentation.

Checking paths...
 ERROR: Data dir (/home/vmail/squirrelmail/data/) does not exist!


BUT,

  cd /home/vmail/squirrelmail/data/
[root@mailserver data]# pwd
/home/vmail/squirrelmail/data

ls -l /home/vmail/squirrelmail/
total 8
drwx-wx---. 2 root apache 4096 Oct 29 20:14 attachment
drwx-wx---. 2 root apache 4096 Oct 29 20:13 data

Any help appreciated,

BTW, should I enable PHP dynamic loading? If so, how?

I was following the instructions at 
http://squirrelmail.org/docs/admin/admin-3.html:

Prepare data and attachment directories
.
Both of these directories should be writable (not readable) by the web 
server and no one else (except you). In a Unix or Linux environment, 
that means that they should be owned by the root user if possible 
(otherwise whatever user you log in as), their group should be the same 
as that that the web server runs as (e.g. "www-data", "apache", 
"nobody", "wheel", etc.), and their permissions should be 0730 (rwx-wx---).

To belabor the obvious, this means you cannot login:

Tried it:

ls -l squirrelmail/
total 8
drwxr-xr-x. 2 apache apache 4096 Oct 29 20:14 attachment
drwxr-xr-x. 2 apache apache 4096 Oct 29 20:13 data

No luck.

Then tried 777. Still no luck!

FWIW, selinux is permissive.

Completely puzzzled!

 I was following the instructions at
 http://squirrelmail.org/docs/admin/admin-3.html:

 Prepare data and attachment directories
 .
 Both of these directories should be writable (not readable) by the web
 server and no one else (except you). In a Unix or Linux environment,
 that means that they should be owned by the root user if possible
 (otherwise whatever user you log in as), their group should be the same
 as that that the web server runs as (e.g. "www-data", "apache",
 "nobody", "wheel", etc.), and their permissions should be 0730
 (rwx-wx---).

Please test your PHP settings (see
http://www.squirrelmail.org/wiki/TestPHPSettings) and show local values of
safe_mode and open_basedir for SquirrelMail.
