I have installed a new system with SME 5.0. Setup user accounts via Server Manager ok, installed RAV Anti-virus, installed twiggi 1.6.6.0, installed Stephen Nobles procmail rules addon. I have setup each user to use procmail for mail delivery. Everything is working great until I wanted to add another user to the system.
Now when I add a user to the system in the Server Manager I get
Software error:
Error occurred while creating user.
For help, please send mail to the webmaster (admin@haak.com.au), giving this error message and the time and date of the error.
When I go back to the Server Manager by clicking on User Accounts the account called "bob" appears there but is locked as per usual I then go to reset the password and get the following error.
Software error:
Failed to set Unix password for account bob.
For help, please send mail to the webmaster (admin@haak.com.au), giving this error message and the time and date of the error.
If I try to delete the user I get the following error.
Software error:
Error occurred while deleting user.
For help, please send mail to the webmaster (admin@haak.com.au), giving this error message and the time and date of the error.
The user account is no longer displayed in the User Accounts section of Server Manager. But if I try to add that user again i am told that the account already exists.
I can successfully add new users and set passwords by accessing the server manger via Lynx web browser from the shell startup manager.
I then load up the Server Manager via a windows broswer, the account is there and active. I can also delete the account from here without any errors.
/home/e-smith/accounts contains all the account information for all users on the system. For the users that I had the errors setting up and deleting still have entries in this file and I assume that because of these entries I cannot re-add these users back onto the system again.
Is is safe to edit this file and delete the entries for the incorrectly created/deleted users?
Will reinstalling SME Update 3 fix my problem so I can use the web based Server Manager again?
Anybody got any thoughts?
Regards
Craig

I installed your supported version and the spam addon that I recently downloaded from your resellers site. I have set this all up on a test system and enabled all my test users to use procmail. I have setup a rule for a couple of users that forwards emails from a user to folder in the Inbox.
All the users are enabled as Twiggi users using the Twiggi Groupware panel in Server Manager that gets installed by Darrell's twiggi v1.6.6.0 version.
User/Vacation Panel installed:
e-smith-userpanel-0.1-7.noarch.rpm
e-smith-vacation-0.2-3.noarch.rpm
e-smith-userpanel-vacation-0.1-1.noarch.rpm
Thanks in advance for your help.

the email filter has been rewritten using junkfilter,
all the userpanels have been updated
and i don't use twiggi
this one isn't worth fighting

the new filtering/admin panel should be ready next week
darrell will announce it

No worries thanks for having a look.
