  • Change PW of mail user doesn't work

    Hello,
    ## i-MSCP version info
    BuildDate = 20160626
    Version = 1.3.0
    CodeName = Horner
    # Distro info
    DISTRO_ID = debian
    DISTRO_CODENAME = jessie
    DISTRO_RELEASE = 8.5
    # Servers
    # Please, do not change these parameters manually
    # Run the i-MSCP installer as follow:
    # imscp-autoinstall -dr servers
    FRONTEND_SERVER = nginx
    SQL_SERVER = mysql_5.5
    PO_SERVER = dovecot
    NAMED_SERVER = external_server
    HTTPD_SERVER = apache_php_fpm
    FTPD_SERVER = proftpd
    MTA_SERVER = postfix
    PHP_SERVER = php5


    I am using IMSCP 1.3.0 php-fpm since months on Debian Jessie 8.5/6.
    No problems so far, except...
    A user tried to change his mail password.
    After that, imscp.mail_users.status stays in tochange for hours


    Icons of other users are correct:




    Changed manually status of tochange to ok, all is ok!


    User can login with newly created pw.



    Any hints where to look in log files why it stays stuck?



    Greetings

  • Apache logrotate change

    Hello,
    On my server I used the following enhancement for logrotating apache logs:

    Code: logrotate.d/apache2
    1. ...
    2. dateext
    3. dateyesterday
    4. ...



    And rotate directly after midnight.


    Background and advantage of this change is: Every log file stays at that assigned name and doesn't change on next day.
    (I rsync this logfiles to another machine, and this shorten traffic significantly)

  • Let's Encrypt auch für das Verwaltungspanel

    I am user of Letsencrypt too, and I have managed to use the LE generated cert of my machine "pollux.domain.com" for the admin panel and the mail server.
    I do not know whether there are bad side effects, but it works like a charm for me. Probably on renew cert I collect some problems, but in the moment its fine.
    PanelRedirect active
    Letsencrypt active


    in /etc/imscp

    Code
    1. mv pollux.domain.com.pem pollux.domain.com.pem.orig
    2. mv imscp_services.pem imscp_services.pem.orig
    3. ln -s pollux.domain.com.pem ->/var/www/imscp/gui/data/certs/pollux.domain.com.pem
    4. ln -s imscp_services.pem pollux.domain.com.pem

    restart something (apache, panel, postfix, dovecot)
