Squirrelmail failing...

[nobaloney]

One of our dedicated server clients has had problems with a few of his email accounts not working with squirrelmail.

After he logs in, squirrelmail hangs without displaying the content of the inbox, and eventually it times out with:

ERROR : Connection dropped by imap-server.
Query: FETCH 1:* (FLAGS UID RFC822.SIZE BODY.PEEK[HEADER.FIELDS (Date To Cc From Subject X-Priority Content-Type)])

On one mailbox we found as long as the mailbox had 57 emails in it, it would work properly, but with 58 emails, it would time it.

It doesn't matter what the contents is of the 58th email, so it appears to be a size directory issue rather than a content issue.

Anyone have any ideas?

Have you figured out the problem?

Just curious...

 

[nobaloney]

We updated everything in customapache, updated squirrelmail to the latest version, and then restarted the server.

It works again.

I still don't know why I had to restart the server; restarting the proper daemons should have resolved it, but didn't .

Cool. Glad to hear it you've got it fixed.

 

[nobaloney]

My client's glad as well .

Why does this happen?

In Squirrelmail, either when I go to the login page, or after I've logged in, I get the following error:

Fatal error: session_start(): Failed to initialize storage module: user (path: /tmp) in /var/www/html/squirrelmail-1.4.2/functions/global.php on line 295

This happens about 80-90% of the time, and it's been so since 25 December - never had a problem with it before!

Because of the recent DoS attacks, and PHP flaws, I've upgraded my PHP, Apache, Zend, MySQL, etc. to the most recent version, plus patched my Squirrelmail to the most recent 1.43a. After this, I've restarted my server. But still, I get the errors - only with Squirrelmail! (I'm not using UebiMiau at all)

Anyone know why this could be?

Can't login to webmail

I can't login to either webmail system


Squirrelmail is throwing the following error:


ERROR : Connection dropped by imap-server.
Query: FETCH 1:* (FLAGS UID RFC822.SIZE BODY.PEEK[HEADER.FIELDS (Date To Cc From Subject X-Priority Content-Type)])


And Uebimiau is throwing this error:

Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 8388608 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 41 bytes) in /var/www/html/webmail/inc/lib.php on line 75




Does anyone have a suggestion of how I can fix this?

Thanksamundo!

Type this as root:

chmod 1777 /tmp

The original problem is commented on Here but it isn't very descriptive.
