hi,

I'm currently in the upgrade process to the latest iredmail etc., but I'm having issues with mlmmjadmin.

The first error I've got was when executing the

~/mlmmjadmin-3.1.3/tools# bash upgrade_mlmmjadmin.sh

The error was "pymysql.err.OperationalError: (1045, "Access denied for user 'vmailadmin'@'localhost' (using password: YES)")"
But I could fix that easily and fast by looking up the password in /opt/mlmmjadmin/settings.py and apply that to mysql.
Then I ran the upgrade again and got this error, which I don't know how to fix:

* Detected Linux/BSD distribution: UBUNTU

Re: mlmmjadmin upgrade problems

Also after upgrading to iRedAdmin Pro 5.1 SQL I get "internal server error" when accessing the iredadmin portal and login on roundcubemail runs into a timeout.

Re: mlmmjadmin upgrade problems

first of all: ubuntu 18.04 isn't supported anymore

pymysql.err.ProgrammingError: (1146, "Table 'vmail.maillist_owners' doesn't exist")

seems you missed some database upgrade scripts aswell

4.3 was an very old version, did you do every single update, or just the newest one? because that won't work

Why is iredmail always dropping support for OS's, that are still well in their lifetime sad
The last time the upgrade installer would'nt run if the OS is not supported, seems like this feature was removed then...
Neertheless, I run another instance on another Ubuntu 18.04 Server, and it's fine.

No, I guess the problem is the upgrade procedures are written to be done at that exact moment the author writes the how-to. Because the tutorial said to upgrade to the latest version of mlmmjadmin, which did not have that table at that time. Today I re-executed it, and it went fine without any errors, but the webinterface and roundcube still don't work.

iRedAdmin was the last thing I updated, before I followed this path: https://docs.iredmail.org/iredmail.releases.html

Then I directly migrated from 4.3 to 5.1, as it seems there is no way to get older releases.

Re: mlmmjadmin upgrade problems

Fixed the problem, changing the password of vmailadmin was the cause.

/root/.my.cnf-vmailadmin

had the old password in it, which I have now stored for the user in mysql and saved in the

/opt/mlmmjadmin/settings.py

file.

Hi @Cthulhu,

Ubuntu 18.04 is not supported for NEW iRedMail installation, but upgrading iRedMail on a running 18.04 server is ok.
