Topic: Can't access webmail

[Erik Fleischer]

I cant access the webmail page when I use the dns name of the server, if I use the ip adress it is no problem...

The homepage for the site have not this problem.

http://esmith.barn.homelinux.com/webmail      (does NOT work)


http://62.79.78.12/webmail                    (does work)


http://barn.homelinux.com/              (does work)

And another problems is, every so often when I filter mail,  -both with an email client or through the webmail interface,  I get at server error, usually it work the second time I try to run the filter, any one got at guess what that internal error might be?  

I found this entry in the log:
imap(barn): Error: Corrupted index file (in-memory index for /home/e-smith/files/users/barn/Maildir/;kekip): Filename mismatch for UID 1: 1068974273.P6612Q43M625255.esmith:2,S vs 1068972653.P6380Q24M876241.esmith


So, what can I do about it?

Thnx

Does http://barn.homelinux.com/webmail work?
You haven't got esmith.barn.homelinux.com pointing to 62.79.78.12.

# ping barn.homelinux.com
PING barn.homelinux.com (62.79.78.12) 56(84) bytes of data.

Sorry cant help with the filter error. Looks like some kind of error with the database that horde uses to store location info about your mail though.

Regards to you corrupted index file goto /home/e-smith/files/users/barn/Maildir...and check permissons do ls -ls and make sure both 1068974273.P6612Q43M625255.esmith:2,S vs 1068972653.P6380Q24M876241.esmith have user and group as barn.barn

Just a thought

I believe to added cname might be the problem. You should go to homelinux.com and see if the added name of esmith. is added. I they have to resolve that name for you and point it to your ip address...
