Topic: [Solved] Problem with Alias and mailForwardingAddress

Hi,

  I migrated iredadmin to comunity edition to full version (1.2.0) with the how to. (http://www.iredmail.org/forum/topic466- … ition.html)

  Now, when I try to create an alias I get the error:

   object class 'mailAlias' requires attribute 'mailForwardingAddress' Object class violation

I created the alias account with a Forwarding in account properties, but I want to create alias correctly.

Re: [Solved] Problem with Alias and mailForwardingAddress

I guess your iRedMail was setuped with iRedMail-0.5.0 or older version, because you didn't update your LDAP scheme file.

In iRedMail-0.5.0 and older version, when you create a mailAlias object, it requires two attributes: mail, mailForwardingAddress. But it requires only 'mail' since 0.5.1.

You can fix it with steps:
* Backup your old ldap schema file: /etc/openldap/schema/iredmail.schema
* Download lastest iRedMail LDAP schema file: http://iredmail.googlecode.com/hg/tags/ … ail.schema
* Copy it to /etc/openldap/schema/iredmail.schema. (It will override old schema file)
* Restart openldap service.

It should work as expected now.
