Hi all,

I've just emerged qmailadmin and then I went to:
http://localhost/qmailadmin

and I get the following error:
Quote:
Forbidden

You don't have permission to access /qmailadmin/ on this server.
Apache/2.0.48 (Gentoo/Linux) mod_ssl/2.0.48 OpenSSL/0.9.7c PHP/4.3.4 Server at descartes Port 80


Any ideas?

Best regards,

Check your apache configuration, make sure you're allowing web access to the qmailadmin directory. Might want to double-check the permissions on the directory itself as well; the apache user (or whichever system user runs apache) should be able to get into the directory.

Had the same problem. I was able to get past that by playing with file permissions, but even then I could not log in to any of my domains (Invalid Login). I had to emerge a masked ebuild to solve it.

Code:

ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~x86" emerge -p qmailadmin


Read the changelogs first and decide if you really want to do this and then remove the "-p". It's working fine for me and my boss thinks it works a little better than the old version (don't know why he thinks that, but if he's happy I'm happy).

:oops:

Just noticed the url.

You typed: http://localhost/qmailadmin

It should be: http://localhost/cgi-bin/qmailadmin

Assuming a stock apache ebuild of course. If you have further problems with qmailadmin then consider my previous post.

Hi there,

Check out if you have the correct maildir format for the postmaster. Qmailadmin creates accounts with the new .maildir format but requires that the postmaster have the Maildir

to fix, create a symbolic link ln -s .maildir Maildir in the postmaster directory.

Hope that helps
