hi
this is a brand new build of Debian 12 and iredmail 1.7.0

everyhing is good except i cannot start iredapd the service seems to want to use python2 however debian 12 does not have python2 i have to use python3 .

heres a snippet of the journel
"[353458]: iredapd.service: Failed at step EXEC spawning /usr/bin/python2: No such file or directory
░░ Subject: Process /usr/bin/python2 could not be executed
░░ Defined-By: systemd
░░ Support:

i have tried to install python2 and 2.7  however this does not seem to exist in the debian 12 apt cache.
is there some upgrade or something i need to complete ..

thanks

- iRedAPD (and mlmmjadmin, iRedAPD, iRedAdmin-Pro) uses Python v3, not v2.
- No similar report from other Debian 12 users so far. And i cannot reproduce this issue locally.

So why does my 1.7.0 try to use it?

No clue at all.
Is it possible to give me direct ssh access with root privilege for troubleshooting?
