Topic: [SOLVED]Per user sieve rule directory not getting created.

iRedMail 0.6
CentOS 5

Can't manage sieve rules in roundcube as the user's sieve rule directory is not getting created. I can create them by hand and it will work. Any ideas or is this normal?

Here is a debug log with my domain sanitized out:

Re: [SOLVED]Per user sieve rule directory not getting created.

Be careful about the directory permissions. it should be owned by user 'vmail' and group 'vmail'.

That was one of the first things I checked.

Re: [SOLVED]Per user sieve rule directory not getting created.

What does the output in your first post mean? debug message before or after you create directories?

The debug log is from /var/log/sieve.log with new user (created in postfixadmin) receiving their initial welcome message after creation. Am I supposed to be creating the sieve directories for each site and user by hand? I was under the impression it was done by pysieved or dovecot.

Thanks!

Re: [SOLVED]Per user sieve rule directory not getting created.

Dovecot will create them automaticly.
Please post log before you create directory manually.

That is the log before the sieve folder creation that I posted initially. It never created the /home/vmail/sieve/domain.tld/user directory, so I left it alone until I could find out why it wasn't working. If it helps any, this server has been running and upgraded since iRedMail 0.4x, I've followed and upgraded via the upgrade tutorials for every revision. (0.5x, 0.6)

I may try a fresh install on another machine and compare config files. Thanks!

Re: [SOLVED]Per user sieve rule directory not getting created.

Found the problem. Needed to patch:

 /usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/pysieved/plugins/dovecot.py

Edit the above file, search for:

os.mkdir(self.basedir)

change to:

os.makedirs(self.basedir)

It now correctly creates the sieve directory for the user. I don't remember seeing this in any of the upgrade howto's, but I could have easily missed it.

Thanks!
