Re: Enterprise Edition Installer only listens on IPv6, even when disabled

On Linux, a service listening on tcp6 :::8080 does not always mean it is IPv6 only. Depending on the socket settings, it may also accept IPv4 connections through dual stack. I would first verify this with ss -ltnp and try connecting to 127.0.0.1:8080 locally before assuming the installer is binding only to IPv6.

Location of Incremental iRedMail and iRedAdmin Installers

null@example.com (mbaker) — Wed, 08 Jul 2026 20:36:03 +0000

==== REQUIRED BASIC INFO OF YOUR IREDMAIL SERVER ====
- iRedMail version (check /etc/iredmail-release): 0.9.7 MARIADB to 1.7.4 MARIADB.
- Deployed with iRedMail Easy or the downloadable installer? Downloadable for both.
- Linux/BSD distribution name and version: CentOS 7 to Ubuntu 24.04.
- Store mail accounts in which backend (LDAP/MySQL/PGSQL): MySQL for both.
- Web server (Apache or Nginx): Nginx for both.
- Manage mail accounts with iRedAdmin-Pro? Yes, for both.
- [IMPORTANT] Related original log or error message is required if you're experiencing an issue.
====

As I understand it, to migrate our old 0.9.7 iRedMail and old 2.8.0 iRedAdmin-Pro server to the new server, we have to update the old server's iRedAdmin to the build on the new server and do the same iRedAdmin-Pro on the old server, that is, update it to the version on the new server. Then we can migrate.

Where can I download these many incremental builds?

Unpacking setup archive files can sometimes lead to unexpected user ID mapping or permission resets on the directory if the extraction flags aren't set correctly. Checking the numeric UID/GID matching during the archive extraction process usually solves these file ownership mismatches.

Thanks for sharing this update. Dealing with log locks or service conflicts during a fresh server setup can be confusing initially, so knowing that this specific warning is safe to bypass saves a lot of troubleshooting time.

Sorry, we are migrating iRedAdmin-Pro version 2.8.0 to iRedAdmin-Pro version 5.7.1. Along with it, iRedMail version 0.9.7 MARIADB will migrate to version 1.7.4 MARIADB.
Do you see any issues or have any caveats, moving from those older versions to the newer?

We have an older server running an older iredmail, which want to migrate to a new server running a newer version of iredmail. I have two questions in that regard>

1) Do you have any caveats or issues in migrating from those versions to the newer versions?

2) Is this still the best mailbox migration KB, given those versions, old and new?

I did ask AI, but there is a way, but is there also a official way to do this by you guys?

Be careful, SOGo has memcached enabled by default, you may want to disable it in sogo.conf temporarily for testing, otherwise you may not get expected result during testing. Cache is valid for 5 minutes by default.

SOGoMemcachedHost = ...;

I re-checked all posts in this thread, i guess you misunderstood the purpose and results of these SQL columns, and i was confused and replied with wrong answer, then i did quick tests after my previous reply, conclusion: Default iRedMail settings work fine.

With SQL column `mailbox.enablesogo=0` (value of this column is 1 or 0), end users cannot login to SOGo. This column is used while creating SQL VIEW `sogo.users`, but not used in `sogo.conf`.
With `mailbox.enablesogo=1`, end users can always login to SOGo web UI, AND
- With `mailbox.enablesogowebmail=n` (value of this column is y or n), end users can login to SOGo web UI, but no "Mail" icon on top-left corner, which means no email related features like accessing IMAP folders, composing new message, etc.
- With `mailbox.enablesogocalendar=n` (value of this column is y or n), end users can login to SOGo web UI, but no `Calendar` icon on top-left corner, no calendar features available on web UI.
- With `mailbox.enablesogoactivesync=n` (value of this column is y or n), end users can login to SOGo web UI, but end users cannot use activesync service, which means end users cannot setup MUA as Exchange ActiveSync account.
