I'm in the process of moving accounts from an old Centos4 DA box to a new Centos5 box. I just completed 1 transfer and everything seemed to work pretty well except when I got to "http://www.domain-name.com/webmail" I get "404 Not Found". Squirrelmail works OK, but no webmail.

Ideas?
 
So change the alias in /etc/httpd/conf/extra/httpd-alias.conf
 
Change it to what, specifically? The current alias line from that file reads
Code:
Alias /webmail "/var/www/html/webmail/"
When I navigate to /var/www/html I don't find a /webmail directory.

Is it found elsewhere?

(This is a brand new installation of DirectAdmin on Centos5).

That's where I'm lost. Here's what appears in my /var/www/html directory...
Code:
[root@iqonq html]# ls -al

No Webmail. It's not a huge deal, it's just that some of my clients have gotten used to using webmail and I'm not quite certain why it's not there are a fresh install of DA.
 
Do you want your clients to use squirrelmail or roundcube? Change the httpd.conf alias to point to one of them. webmail is an alias. It is not a real directory. That is why you don't see it. There is no such web mail client as webmail.
 
Ok, I see now. The newer version of DA doesn't include webmail. The old DA server I'm migrating away from does. No biggie. Thanks for your input!
