==== REQUIRED BASIC INFO OF YOUR IREDMAIL SERVER ====

- Deployed with iRedMail Easy or the downloadable installer? Downloadable installer.
- Linux/BSD distribution name and version: Ubuntu 20.04
- Store mail accounts in which backend (LDAP/MySQL/PGSQL): mysql
- Web server (Apache or Nginx): apache
- Manage mail accounts with iRedAdmin-Pro?

Hi there.
I was wondering how do you install iRedMail with existing apache, php and mysql? When I run the installer, there is no option in the web server part to select apache and no option in the store mail accounts part to select  mysql. I appreciate any  answers.

No such option and we have no plan to support it. It’s recommended to deploy iRedMail on a dedicated server for mail service.

@ZhangHuangbin. So does it mean I can't host my website and mail server in the same server?

Sure you can, but you have to install iRedMail on a fresh/clean server OS, then use the Nginx and SQL server deployed by iRedMail for web hosting. Not Apache.
