Hi,
We are getting an error when starting the iRedMail through following command:
for srv in iptables syslog mysqld httpd postfix policyd dovecot clamd amavisd fail2ban crond freshclam iredapd; do /etc/init.d/${srv} restart; done
The error is as follows:
Sep 26 18:01:01 localhost policyd-cleanup: connecting to mysql database: 127.0.0.1
Sep 26 18:01:01 localhost policyd-cleanup: mysql_real_connect(): Access denied for user 'policyd'@'localhost' (using password: YES)

And then when i try to access the URL "httpS://<server-ip>/mail/" in browser, the following error comes up:
DATABASE ERROR: CONNECTION FAILED!
Unable to connect to the database!
Please contact your server-administrator.
Has anybody faced such an issue before
Or can anybody provide a solution for this.
Regards,
Hemang
