Solved Roundcube not working

[patrickkasie]

Dear you,

Thank you for taking the time to read this. Now I'm hoping for an answer to the following question:

TL;DR Roundcube's rights issue?

On a VPS, Roundcube 1.5.0 was installed, but it seemed to have suddenly disappeared. This may be contributed to me doing a ./build rewrite_confs after making a PHP version change. When trying to access domain.com/roundcube, this is the pop up:

When looking at the error log of /var/log/httpd/domains/domain.com.error/log, the following popped up:

[Tue Jan 25 13:40:30.286597 2022] [:error] [pid 1894] [client 62.194.16.102:54897] PHP Warning: config.inc.php was not found. in /var/www/html/roundcubemail-1.5.0/program/lib/Roundcube/rcube.php on line 1483

I've tried building Roundcube again on Custombuild and on SSH, where it popped up the following notification:

RoundCube 1.5.0 requires newer version of MySQL than 5.5, alternatively, the following my.cnf configuration can be set
innodb_large_prefix=1
innodb_file_per_table=1
innodb_file_format=Barracuda

So I've done just that in /var/www/html/roundcube/config/my.cnf
It's still giving me the same result.

A full server reboot did not do anything either. A quick Google search tells me I have to check for the rights to be set correctly, but I believe this is not the issue at hand considering it was installed prior to this issue. I've still tried looking into it, but everything leading up to the config folder seems to have the correct ownership and rights. I'm at a loss on what to do here.

Regards,

Patrick

You could try to rebuild RoundCube to see if its fixes the issue.
Use: ./build roundcube

Hi Patrick, did you put this in the right my.cnf file ?
As I recall right that (var/www/html/roundcube/config/my.cnf) is not the standard my.cnf file location

That's the location I've put it in, though I'm not aware of another location. Where should it be? Btw this folder is edited on october 21st 2021, which was around the release date of 1.5.0, leading me to believe this directory is actually used.

How do I find the MySQL my.cnf location

Is there a MySQL command to locate the my.cnf configuration file, similar to how PHP's phpinfo() locates its php.ini?

This did it. Thank you very much. Next time I should look further than just what's on the dirt and dig deeper.
