Hi all. I have problems with Open Webmail 2.41 in SuSE 9.1 . When i run (in root mode) :. # perl openwebmail-tool.pl --init Too late for "-T" option at ./openwebmail-tool.pl line 1.

my /etc/permissions.easy for suidperl: /usr/bin/suidperl root:root 4755

Any idea ?

Double check to make sure you didn't change your security settings to secure.

Also do an 'ls -l /usr/bin/suidperl'

Should give you -rwsr-xr-x 3 root root 1160321 2004-10-01 19:42 /usr/bin/suidperl

Thanks Doug !. # ./openwebmail-tool.pl --init Permission denied :( Doug Currey wrote:

In the openwebmail dir usually /srv/www/cgi-bin/openwebmail/

run './openwebmail-tool.pl --init'

Make sure that you also edit the dbm.conf

dbm_ext .pag dbmopen_ext none dbmopen_haslock no

and the auth_unix.conf (if using auth_unix)

passwdfile_plaintext /etc/passwd passwdfile_encrypted /etc/shadow passwdmkdb none check_nologin no check_shell no check_cobaltuser no

before running the openwebmail-tool

How did you extract the tar file?

I copy the openwebmail-current.tar.gz to the /srv/www direcotry

Then do a tar -zxvBpf openwebmail-current.tar.gz

This makes the /srv/www/cgi-bin/openwebmail dir with the correct permisions

if memory serves all the .pl files should end up being owned by root and in the mail group mode 755

You perl uses the following packages for dbm:

'./etc/dbm.conf' should be set as follows:

dbm_ext .pag dbmopen_ext none dbmopen_haslock no

Ok I am running out of ideas. This was a known problem with 2.3x but not with 2.41.

in the /srv/www/cgi-bin/openwebmail/etc/defaults/openwebmail.conf file does it have the following:

ow_mapsdir %ow_etcdir%/maps

g2b_map %ow_mapsdir%/g2b.map b2g_map %ow_mapsdir%/b2g.map lunar_map %ow_mapsdir%/lunar.map

pay close attentin to to ow_mapsdir the bug was the missing 's'

other than that I am out of ideas. Let me know if you find anything else out.
