Hi,
I just upgraded to 4.9 (from 4.4)
Before installing iredAdmin-pro 4.9 i ran all upgrades (from 1.3.1 to 1.4.2 of iredmail).
Doing those installations i got  number of problems but I was able to solve them.
The problems were all related to iredmail failing to install python modules.
Just looking at the errors i could tell which python module it was looking for and install it manually.

As i ran the 4.9 installer i immediately notice something weird, it was installing py27 packages, maybe it was supposed to, but i don't think so.
Anyway, now when i try login into the /iredadmin interface it doesn't accept the password and gives me an error as wrong password, but that's not the issue, something else is wrong.

Probably it is simply missing a py module or a py27 module is being used but to working....

How can i debug?
Thanks

how are your passwords stored, md5 or ssha ?

Surely no md5, but again this is not a password issue

you try to login with username only or by full login includeing email?

With only the username it would never work.
AGAIN, this is NOT an authentication issue.
What i am looking for is
- a log location for debugging (the log for iredadmin indicated here - https://docs.iredmail.org/file.locations.html#iredadmin -  does not exists, possibly iredadmin pro has it in a different location but it not listed).
- a way to call iredadmin-pro with debugging parameters so that I can tell what's going wrong
- a list of python modules required, likely what's wrong is that one of these modules is missing or is encountering some conflict.

It turned out that 'py38-bcrypt' was not installed and this was causing the issue.
installing the package solved the login issue
