Hello,

When I add a new email-address in DirectAdmin for a user and want to login into squirrelMail, I get always an error like :

Preference file, /var/www/html/squirrelmail/data/xxxx.pref, could not be opened

The problem is that the mod attributes are not set in the good way, when creating the new emailaddress he sets the attributes to :

-rw-rw----

Normally it muse be :

-rwxr-xr-x

If I change them manually the problem is solved, but why he is setting the wrong MOD?

Somebody who can solve my problem?

Any solution to this??

What would be the correct (safe) permission settings on Data folder and preference file ?
 
i am also having same problem. I tried above solutions but problem still exist.
 
The parent folder might have wrong permissions set. I would check the parent folders to see what chmods are set to.

data folder should be 777 if not using suphp

If using suphp you should be able to use 750
