Topic: Trying a re-install, skips all however!

Hey,

I recently stumbled upon iRedMail. The implementation certainly suits my needs, however, I had a server running with Postfix and the whole anti-spam/virus circus already.

Basicly I tried the installer and it worked, it downloaded all packages and installed them. It was working untill some extent. Not completely however, because when I tried sending e-mails it would always generate some vague error about a "451 4.3.5 server configuration problem". I didn't manage to solve this, so I decided to remove it all and start over with a more clean situation.

So I removed all the software, and also ran the uninstall script from iRedMail.

Now i'm trying to re-install iRedMail. It starts the bash iRedMail, and it asks me for all the configuration details, however, once it asks me if I want to continue this is the result:

I think the installer comes to the conclusion most of it is install already or something, any idea what I could try besides a full OS re-install?

Re: Trying a re-install, skips all however!

Okay, I tried to install the 0.7.3-rc2 instead.

This one installed, but once i issued the 'for loop' to start all the needed services it couldn't start a few of them.

[edit]
Already fixed the problem with Amavis not starting.

Installed the PERL Compress:Zlib module, and then manually created a pem in the right location, setfacl'ed it and that fixed it.

I'm still not sure what's wrong with httpd or mysqld though.

I've got a feeling the problem with mysql is in the socks file. Following up on this now. No clue what to do about httpd not starting so far. (The error is clear, but I haven't found anything about this yet)

[edit2]
The httpd one was easy eventually, just added a LoadModule wsgi_module to the httpd.conf.

Now all that's left is trying to get Mysql running, which still seems to be related to the socks file, since my.cf is saying the socks file should be at:

/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock

Yet nothing is there.

The error log of the MySQL problem. I googled for the error and i found i had to disable this:

[mysqld]
#bind-address            = 127.0.0.1
port                    = 3306
default-character-set   = utf8

to this:

[mysqld]
#bind-address            = 127.0.0.1
port                    = 3306
#default-character-set   = utf8

Because apparently the "default-character-set   = utf8" is also called under the [client] part of the file.

Doing this however didn't solve the actual problem, because this is the new error log after disabling that line:

Trying to google on that error however didn' provide any results whatsoever.

Re: Trying a re-install, skips all however!

In order to get MySQL started I had to disable the following lines in my.cnf.

default-character-set   = utf8 (The one under [mysqld])
skip-locking
set-variable = max_connections=1024

After that it finally started. I haven't yet found out what the implications might be on disabling these settings though.
