Webmail stopped working!
« on: March 25, 2001, 07:13:24 PM »
I am using E-Smith Server and Gateway ver. 4.1.1

My webmail was working very well. But now has stopped working. I get the following errors:

First:
  Your Security Certificate is expired and buttons giving the option to continue or cancel. When I click continue I get the next error message.

Second:
  An I/O error occurred during security authorization. Please try your connection again. This error dialog gives me an ok button. When I click it no connection occurs.

Anyone else encountered this? Any help is appreciated.

I would try the following:

1) /sbin/e-smith/signal-event console-save
2) shutdown -h now

I like to power off as opposed to reboot, personal preference.

3) power on
3) test webmail and report back

Regards,

Darrell

I went to that directory and found the signal-event command but not console-save.
I typed signal-event but got the following response:

bash: signal-event: command not found

Login as root and enter these commands, 'exactly' as shown!

/sbin/e-smith/signal-event console-save

shutdown -h now

console-save is a parameter to the signal-event program.

You got that running the command in its own directory because Linux (and Unix in general) doesn't use the current directory in the PATH environment variable. if you preface the command with ./ (dot & slash) it will work, as will typing the complete path from anywhere in the system.

I really want to thank you guys for replying to my problem.

I solved it by opening https://www.mydomain.xxx and renewing the security certificate.
 
It had expired. I put in the new expiration date and reinstalled the certificate.....
then I reopened my webmail using https://www.mydomain.xxx/webmail and it all worked fine.

Thanks again....
