Hi
To begin with, i'm running FreeBSD 7 as earlier versions isn't supported by the server i use, so the install scripts are not working. That means i have to compile everything myself, and configure it to work with DA. I've managed to successfully install apache/mysql/dovecot/php from ports, all working perfect and can be controlled from DA with almost no problems at all (Only one problem when DA writes the vhost files, but not hard to fix).
The only problem i've ran into is with Exim. I've compiled and installed it successfully and i can get it running with no errors in the log. But when i receive an email, it accepts the email and write in the log that it has been delivered, but it doesn't look like it stores the email anyway. The customer imap folder is simply empty (the directory are created for the folders, but all empty). Hope someone can help me with this problem, as i dont know much about exim (always been a postfix user).
Output from the exim mainlog:
2008-01-31 01:36:47 1JKNQ7-000B3P-Pp <= [email protected] U=root P=local S=357 T="adf" from <[email protected]> for [email protected]
2008-01-31 01:36:48 1JKNQ7-000B3P-Pp => info <[email protected]> F=<[email protected]> R=virtual_user T=virtual_localdelivery S=475
2008-01-31 01:36:48 1JKNQ7-000B3P-Pp Completed
Edit: I found out how to get exim into debugging mode (doh that was simple) and found out the error. In the process of getting everything to work with DA, there was some folder permission problems when creating domains, so the domain was created half by the admin user, and then later by a customer user. That left the admin user as domainowner in the mail settings, so the emails was delivered to the wrong directory. Now everything runs perfectly!
Thanks in advance,
Niklas
