Beta 7, IMAP access broken or mis-configured

[svensen]

Martin,

I agree in having a collaboration server designed for this scale to be as individually configurable as possible.

In my opinion, however, one might find a configuration option like imapCredSrc=session quite useful, so if an imaplogin is missing in the per-user options, the groupware could fall back to globally defined rules, e.g. use the session login credentials (testuser@context1.de, testpass1)

in a hosting scenario, a per-context setting might also be quite useful.

But that's your decision to make, not mine

Regards, Sven

Hi Sven,

this is neither a feature nor a bug, it's just plain reality that there are dozen of different mailservers out there and it is just not possible (or desirable) to interact with any mailserver configuration out of the box. Just to remember, with Open-Xchange 6.5 you get the same software hosting providers and system integration specialists use, it is no longer a one-platform solution.
I can understand that it means additional work for a administrator to maintain mailboxes separately, but our goal is integration and enhancement, not replacement of an existing mail system.

Hi Martin,

that was fast!

/opt/open-xchange/sbin/changeuser -c 1 -i 4 --imaplogin testuser -A oxadmin -P secret

That did the trick, thanks very much!

So when adding new users with I have to make sure to create IMAP mailboxes on my own and also set --imapuser accordingly. Is this a bug or a feature?

Regards,
Sven

Got it,

the previous OX 6.4.2 was configured OX:EE like, including mailserver configuration and all
that stuff. Therefor another IMAP login mechanism was used, adding the users IMAP account
name solved the problem for me - could you try this?

etch:~# /opt/open-xchange/sbin/listuser -c 1 testuser -A oxadmin -P secret
Id Name Displayname Email
2 oxadmin Open-Xchange Administrator oxadmin@example.com
3 postmaster Postmaster postmaster@example.com
4 testuser Test User testuser@example.com


/opt/open-xchange/sbin/changeuser -c 1 -i 4 --imaplogin testuser -A oxadmin -P secret

greetings

Hi Sven,

did you cleared the browsercache after updating the whole stuff? Just in case...

is there any .dpkg-old (in case you're using debian) or .rpmnew (in case you're using sles/rhel)
available? Those files contain the previous or updated configuration.

It would be very helpful if you could provide the error message (stacktrace) from the logfile at
/var/log/open-xchange/open-xchange.log.0 when this error happens.

Is it possible to get any network traffic information between ox and the IMAP server when this issue occurs?

Greetings and thanks for reporting

After installing beta7 released today, I can't use IMAP anymore.

10.07.2008 18:59-->Fehlermeldung: Missing parameter folder (MSG-0030,-2043158149-35)

That's probably because some options in imap.properties might have changed or moved, but I don't know how...

# imap.properties
# [...]
imapLoginType=user
imapMasterPassword=secret
imapServer=127.0.0.1
smtpServer=127.0.0.1
smtpLocalhost=null
imaps=false
smtps=false
imapCredSrc=session

Worked flawlessly with beta 4

Tanks in advance
Sven
