Topic: Problem [SOLVED]

Good day. Installs your package, but when you run this:
Error: Error in configuration file / etc / dovecot / dovecot.conf line 24: Unknown setting: mail_uid
Fatal: Invalid configuration in / etc / dovecot / dovecot.conf


What to do in this case?

sorry for my bad English smile

Re: Problem [SOLVED]

Line 24:
mail_uid = 1001

commenting on a string 24 produces an error on line 25

Line 25:
mail_gid = 1001

Re: Problem [SOLVED]

when iredmail install, would create a user vmail, the userid and groupid is 1001.

check the /etc/passwd and /etc/group, whether have vmail.

read the document careful, you need download the dovecot 1.1 .

    * Make sure dovecot 1.1.x will be installed:

      # apt-get update
      # apt-cache policy dovecot-common dovecot-pop3d dovecot-imapd | grep 'Candidate'
        Candidate: 1:1.1.16-1~bpo50+1
        Candidate: 1:1.1.16-1~bpo50+1
        Candidate: 1:1.1.16-1~bpo50+1

Re: Problem [SOLVED]

the debian 5 bring dovecot is 1.0, but iredmail use dovecot 1.1.

seem you no run

 bash get_all

so you need 

    * Get necessary packages. It will create a local apt repository in current directory.

      # cd /path/to/iRedMail-x.y.z/pkgs/
      # bash get_all.sh

    * Make sure dovecot 1.1.x will be installed:

      # apt-get update
      # apt-cache policy dovecot-common dovecot-pop3d dovecot-imapd | grep 'Candidate'
        Candidate: 1:1.1.16-1~bpo50+1
        Candidate: 1:1.1.16-1~bpo50+1
        Candidate: 1:1.1.16-1~bpo50+1

    * Start iRedMail installer:

      # cd /path/to/iRedMail-x.y.z/
      # bash iRedMail.sh
