Topic: Installation error on Debian 5 with iRedMail-0.5.0

I'm trying to install iRedMail-0.5.0 on OpenVZ.  I issued the command "mount -o remount,rw,acl /" but I still get this error during install.  Can anyone help?

Re: Installation error on Debian 5 with iRedMail-0.5.0

Did you install 'acl' package first?

If it's already installed, please paste the tail of output while use below command to perform installation:

# bash -xv iRedMail.sh

Some questions:
- Did you run below command before installation:

# mount -o remount,rw,acl /

- Did you install 'acl' package before installation?

# apt-get install acl

Re: Installation error on Debian 5 with iRedMail-0.5.0

hi, this is a bug in iRedMail: it creates a new file under /tmp and use 'setfacl' to set ACL.

How to fix:
- Edit file iRedMail-0.5.0/conf/core, replace '/tmp' by '/etc' in function 'check_acl()'.

Re: Installation error on Debian 5 with iRedMail-0.5.0

Solved ... thanks

Re: Installation error on Debian 5 with iRedMail-0.5.0

Still same error with Debian OpenVZ.  It keep saying my system doesn't support acl.

I have installed acl and issued "mount -o remount,rw,acl /" before starting the the intallation.

Re: Installation error on Debian 5 with iRedMail-0.5.0

About OpenVZ: There is always one HN (Hardware Node) and >= 0 VEs (Virtual Environments). More info here http://sunoano.name/ws/public_xhtml/openvz.html

Now that I am getting serious about setting up IRM, it seems it does not work with OpenVZ simply because ACL can not be set from within a VE but only on the HN. Many of us need to run IRM inside VEs so we need to find a solution; below some screendump showing the problem inside a VE where I am trying to install IRM:

mail:/home/sa/iRedMail-0.5.0# lsb_release -ric
Distributor ID:    Debian
Release:    5.0.2
Codename:    lenny
mail:/home/sa/iRedMail-0.5.0# whoami

dpl is aliased to `dpkg -l'
ii  acl                             2.2.47-2                 Access control list utilities
mail:/home/sa/iRedMail-0.5.0# 
mount: permission denied
mail:/home/sa/iRedMail-0.5.0# rm /tmp/tBhm5r9533BFy673hJvNnyKmJ47RIw 
mail:/home/sa/iRedMail-0.5.0# touch /tmp/somethingafqrr34r24rfrwesfsr2
mail:/home/sa/iRedMail-0.5.0# setfacl -m u:bin:--- /tmp/somethingafqrr34r24rfrwesfsr2
setfacl: /tmp/somethingafqrr34r24rfrwesfsr2: Operation not supported
mail:/home/sa/iRedMail-0.5.0# cat /etc/fstab 
# UNCONFIGURED FSTAB FOR BASE SYSTEM
mail:/home/sa/iRedMail-0.5.0# 

The simple fact is, that as of now irm is unusable with OpenVZ. We need to get this fixed by either
- making IRM not rely on ACL or
- find a way to make it (ACL that is) work on OpenVZ

There are a few post on the forum as well as the Install Guide for Debian mentions it e.g. to issue mount -o remount,rw,acl / or they say with OpenVZ it works out of the box and things like that. All that suggestions do not work. IRM does currently not work with OpenVZ; thereby it does not matter which Linux Distribution is used on the HN or within a VE e.g. Debian on the HN and CentOS within the VE etc.

One thing I will test tomorrow is to activate ACL on the HN. However, this should not be necessary -- I dislike the idea since the HN I use for testing currently runs 23 other VEs with various other software like for example Plone, Joomla, GITosis, CouchDB, etc. In other words, whatever goes inside a VE should not affect the HN or other VEs for that matter.

Re: Installation error on Debian 5 with iRedMail-0.5.0

ACL issue was fixed in -current, you can use hg to check out the lastest source code or mail me to get a working copy.

if acl testing failed, iRedMail will make the private SSL key world-readable, you know, it's not recommend, but it works. And that's why iRedMail force to use acl.

Restarting your amavis service should solve this issue.

Adding the missing semicolon:
Here I am adding the missing semicolon at the end of line 10.0.0.0/8 172.16.0.0/12 192.168.0.0/16 );

Status:
Sending works now. Receiving emails (e.g. if I send from
foo@gmail.com to foo@example.com) takes a few minutes at first try
because of greylisting. I assume the 5min delay is only true for some
email address that is seen for the first time i.e. if IRM gets email
from the same address for the 2+ times there is no more greylisting
and thus no delay right?
