Topic: 404 Not Found after fresh install

==== Required information ====
- iRedMail version: 8.5
- Store mail accounts in which backend (LDAP/MySQL/PGSQL): MySQL
- Linux/BSD distribution name and version: Unbuntu 13.04 on OpenVZ VPS

Not Found

The requested URL /mail/ was not found on this server.
Apache/2.2.22 (Ubuntu) Server at netrensics.com Port 80

^^ Error I get after installing using this guide: http://www.iredmail.org/install_iredmail_on_ubuntu.html

There was no mail folder created under /var/www which is where my web home is. I've attached the CLI output during the install.

Re: 404 Not Found after fresh install

*) Your log file contains password, don't paste it directly.
*) Installation was fine according to your log.
*) Still no idea why '/mail' doesn't work for you. Did you access http://your_server/mail or httpS://? Did you try to access your web server with its IP address instead of domain name?

Mail folder will be created automatically after user logged in via POP3/IMAP under /var/vmail/, not /var/www.

Tried both http and https and IP.

How do I log in under /var/vmail? My web root is /var/www. The index.html file in /var/www was changed to do a redirect to the mail folder which doesn't exists.

Re: 404 Not Found after fresh install

I have no idea what the problem is. Could you please show me some more info to help troubleshoot?

*) Command output: "ls /etc/init.d/"

Re: 404 Not Found after fresh install

Sorry, you misunderstood my question: Any log content in /var/log/maillog?

Also, i suggest you that, if possible, re-install your server os, then re-install iRedMail. It should be easier to fix this issue.
Please keep watching the iRedMail installation output message, paste error message here if it there's any.

This is my 2nd time installing it from fresh. The hosts uses SolusVM, so I can reinstall a fresh Unbuntu or other OS anytime. All I did before installed iRedMail was change the root password and apt-get update/upgrade. Never saw any errors during the install.

I can reinstall the VM and try on a different OS like CentOS or something if you think it would help.

It looks like their VMs come with apache installed at least because when I reinstall I get a default web page in /var/www that works.

Re: 404 Not Found after fresh install

I believe your iRedMail was not successfully completed.

*) There's log mentions "sm-mta" is running. sm-mta is Sendmail, but iRedMail uses Postfix as MTA, not Sendmail. iRedMail asks you to remove Sending at the end of installation.
*) It says "warning: unable to look up public/pickup: No such file or directory", "pickup" is shipped by Postfix, so maybe your Postfix package is broken, or you modified some Postfix settings to use different "pickup" program.

Personally, i suggest you try to re-install again, maybe CentOS this time. If it doesn't work with CentOS, would you mind giving me privilege to install it on your fresh VM? I'd like to give it a try and try to figure out what the problem is. But please try CentOS yourself first.

Re: 404 Not Found after fresh install

Attached is the CentOS install (password removed this time).

I did this install twice both after fresh installs of CentOS 6, 64 Bit.

Still no mail folder in /var/www but it did create other folders vs the Ubuntu install.

Will try Debian 7 next.

Debian 7 install, no mail folder created in /var/www

You can give it a try if you want Zhang. I would prefer we do some type of remote desktop and ssh from there.

I repeat myself: "Mail folder will be created AUTOMATICALLY after user logged in via POP3/IMAP under /var/vmail/, not /var/www." You don't need to create mail folders for users.

What's your issue with new installation?

I'm sorry I guess I don't understand how to access via POP3/IMAP. Would I be using the postmaster account? Tried adding it in Thunderbird and it was unable to detect any settings. I know how to add accounts in Thunderbird I just don't know for sure what settings to use with this install.

No problem with a new installation. I just want to be able to see what you're doing. How did you want to do it?

Tried this and Thunderbird unable to find the settings. Tried settings in the guide and did "re-test" and it was unable to pass.

It is still unclear to me what e-mail account I should be testing so I tried both the postmaster account (using root password) and root account with root password. I don't know of any other accounts to try or how to create a mailbox without the web GUI.

I've noticed I can open a socket to 143 and get:
* OK [CAPABILITY IMAP4rev1 LITERAL+ SASL-IR LOGIN-REFERRALS ID ENABLE IDLE STARTTLS LOGINDISABLED] Dovecot ready.

TELNETTing from my client via port 587 I receive a TCP reset from my server. Port 993 works as well.

*) While iRedMail installation completed, it prints username and password in terminal. It should be "postmaster@[your_domain]".
*) You can find all username/password in iRedMail directory. For example, /root/iRedMail-0.8.5/iRedMail.tips. It's clearly mentioned when iRedMail installation completed, and installation guide:

Apologies, all of that information was right there on the screen. So I am trying now with the correct password, user id, and settings (per the guide) and still having the same error in Thunderbird.

Sent a few test e-mails from Yahoo to the postmaster account and haven't got anything back yet. Let me doing some more testing with this and I'll update.

Re: 404 Not Found after fresh install

I tried Thunderbird from two different clients and was unable to connect and received failure notifications for my test e-mails from Yahoo.

I give up!

Thanks for the help Zhang.
