Plesk 12.x / Linux :: Permission Denied When Accessing Mail Settings
Feb 17, 2015
Since the plesk installation by my hoster did not include a mail server, I installed postfix and dovecot from the upgrades menu, followed the steps at [URL] .... and ran mchk to add the mail settings option to my domain. However, when I click on it, I receive the error "Warning: Permission denied." and stay on the domain overview. There is no error logged in var/log/sw-cp-server/error_log, /var/log/sw-cp-server/sw-engine.log or /usr/local/psa/admin/logs/panel.log.
I also tried "plesk bin mail --create foo@my.tld -mbox_quota 1M", but then I receive the error
Code:
ERR [util_exec] proc_close() failed
mailmng-outgoing failed: ERROR:outgoing:mails.domain_id may not be NULL
FTP session opened. unable to open TransferLog '/usr/local/psa/var/log/xferlog': Too many levels of symbolic links chroot to '/var/www/vhosts/domain.com' failed for user 'user': Permission denied error: unable to set DefaultRoot directory FTP session closed.
Mail isn't leaving the queue, it's returning this error
Feb 12 23:12:01 XXXX postfix-local[64360]: System error .qmail: Permission denied Feb 12 23:12:01 XXXX postfix-local[64360]: Wrong permissions for .qmail
All the files within /var/qmail/ are set to the user and group "popuser", and have the nessacery rwx permissions for the user/group.
This is a fresh plesk12 installation on a kvm vps on centos 6.6
We used the migration and transfer tool to copy data from another server. After the full migration without changing any setting from the configuration files, any mail account hosted on this server cannot receive emails.
We have a little issue with the API, when we want to add an subscription, then we became "Error: Permission denied. (1006)" - but the subscription was added. The status Icon of the Subscription is a "!" and they say (tooltip), that the Plan wasn't correctly synchronized, but we don't use a Plan for this. The Reseller has all rights, there are now limits.
I don't know when we had this problem the first time, but i know that if had worked in Plesk 12 correctly - i think the problem came up with the last 4 - 6 MU.
We actually have Plesk 12.0.18 Update #16 and running it on Debian 6.0.9.
PHP-FPM support for nginx will not start when attempted in Tools & Settings > Services Management
Check error log:
#tail /var/log/php-fpm/error.log
ERROR: unable to bind listening socket for address '/var/www/vhosts/system/domain.tld/php-fpm.sock': Permission denied (13)
Possible problem:
SELinux may be preventing it. To test this do:
#setenforce 0
Now try and start PHP-FPM support again in Tools & Settings > Services Management
If that now starts you know what the problem is. Go to "Fix" below If it didnt work, you have a different issue. Turn SELinux back on while you figure it out:
#setenforce 1
Fix:
The following worked for me but i know very little about SELinux - corrections welcome:
## Turn SELinux to permissive # setenforce 0 ## In Plesk panel start PHP-FPM support in Tools & Settings > Services Management
Not sure what is going on with Plesk.. I've modified and saved a specific service plan with the session.save_path to have a location by default to be /tmp/ and for some reason it isn't changing all customers accounts with the modified settings of the location to be /tmp/. In order to resolve the issue, I'd have to manually change the "default" option on each websites php settings session.save_path to /tmp/ instead of Plesk syncing the correct settings based on the modification. Because of so, I am receiving the following error below on a customers website below:
Warning: Unknown: open(/var/lib/php/session/sess_f9bffgv0ddrjo9geb6frhut5d7, O_RDWR) failed: Permission denied (13) in Unknown on line 0 Warning: Unknown: Failed to write session data (files). Please verify that the current setting of session.save_path is correct (/var/lib/php/session) in Unknown on line 0
After making changes, I've tried the following in command line:
service php-fpm restart service httpd restart service psa restart
Recently we had to rollback the Plesk database and Plesk version files to their pre-upgrade state, and rerun the upgrade procedure as it is described in the knowledge base [URL] ..... The update process then worked smoothly and we are now using the newest version 12.0.18 on CentOS 6 with the newest microupdates 1200150615.10.
But right after this update procedure we are not able to access some domains with the filemanager anymore. The browser shows the following error message:
Internal error: filemng: opendir failed: Permission denied System error 13: Permission denied Message filemng: opendir failed: Permission denied System error 13: Permission denied File Agent.php Line 243 Type PleskUtilExceptio
The logfile: /usr/local/psa/admin/logs/panel.log is a bit more detailed
[URL] ....
What I did so far was the following:
1.) I checked out the knowledge base, specifically this entry was worth looking at. But /usr/local/psa/bin/repair --restore-vhosts-permissions didn't solve the problem. 2.) I found a similar problem in the discussion board but the approaches they took weren't successful in my case.
Due to the fact that the file manager worked before the rollback of the database and the major upgrade, I think there might be a connection.
From my point of view the permission settings should be right. Other domains using exactly the same permissions and they are working fine.
# ll /var/www/vhosts/system/domain.com/ total 20K drwxr-x--- 2 root psaserv 4,0K 24. Jun 02:13 conf drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4,0K 8. Jan 2014 etc drwx------ 2 psaadm root 4,0K 24. Jun 03:43 logs
On the dashboard (intro page) there is the option "Outgoing Mail Control" and there the link "See report". When clicking on "See report" I get a "Warning: Permission denied." error message when being logged in as the full administrator. Is this due to an error in an update or what is going on here?
When creating a new subscription via the API (Plesk 12) is there a way to specify the Mail settings? More importantly is there a way to turn off Mail when setting up a new subscription? Each time I create a subscription via the API Plesk spits out the following error:
Code: New configuration files for the Apache web server were not created due to the errors in configuration templates: Template processing failed: file = /usr/local/psa/admin/conf/templates/default/domainWebmail.php, error = Template_Exception: Empty content was provided for config file /etc/httpd/conf/plesk.conf.d/webmails/horde/demon3zxc.e-worksmedia.com_webmail.conf file: /usr/local/psa/admin/plib/Template/Writer/Webserver/Abstract.php line: 47 code: 0.
I set multiple mail servers (eg media-26.com) in the black list of server-wide mail settings but i still get spams from these mail servers..does it work properly?
Since 12.0.18, when I go to Tools & Settings > Mail Server, I get this error message on the page:
"Error: The limits on outgoing mail will not work for the subscriptions that have IP addresses from the white list. To make the limits work, remove IP addresses from the mail server's white list".
However, the whitelist page just contains 127.0.0.0/8 and ::1/128, and all my subscriptions have an external IP address which is clearly not in the whitelist.
1/ What is the difference between maillog and maillog.processed? I want to keep a permanent record of all mail inbound and outbound even if delivery is deferred by the gray listing. I'm not sure which one is the best to keep.
2/ I would like to change the way that the mail logs get log rotated. I am struggling to work out exactly what happens at the moment but I would like to rotate the log out every day regardless of size. I think currently that the maillog.processed is rotated daily if it is over a specific size.
As the admin user, change the setting for a particular email account called "The maximum number of outgoing email messages" to a value beyond the default. For example if the default is 35, set it to 75. This is common -- often we have customers who send larger quantities of messages than the average user.
Login as a reseller with access to manage the email account and attempt to change any *other* value. For example, you could completely ignore the outgoing mail messages value and change just the Auto-Reply value
Plesk refuses to allow the change and kicks me back to the first tab with the following error:
The value must be in the range 0..35. Only the Plesk administrator can adjust this setting.Click to expand...
I created a new virtual site and cloned an existing to to the new docroot to have content. But when I access it I receive the Access Denied you do not have permission to access . . .I've checked all my entries and unless I'm blind I cannot figure out how to remedy this on my Windows 2003R2 server running apache 2.2.x
I have a VPS with Ubuntu 9.04. I've setup ISPConfig etc as per the Perfect Server Howto Forge pages.
However I'm getting a problem with the configuration of maildrop, I get
Code:
temporary failure. Command output: ERR: authdaemon: s_connect() failed: Permission denied /usr/bin/maildrop: Unable to change to home directory. ls -lah /var/vmail
I just got a barebone server. Installed apache2, php5, mysql,phpmyadmin.
I only have SSH access to the server. I wish to use CoreFTP to transfer some webpage files to /var/www folder. I can login the server using CoreFTP's SSH/SFTP and it displays all the files and directories, but I do not have the permission to write.
My question is, how do I give myself permission to write? Here is the id of my user:
I made a copy of my forum's root folder using SSH command: cp -r forum forum123
Then I tried to update the new (forum123) folder with the latest files from vBulletin.
And it gave me a permission denied error. For test purpose, I went to the original folder and uploaded one of the new files there and it worked flawlessly.
Why am I not able to upload files to the copied folder? I've been doing this since like for ever, this is the first time I've encountered such an error.
I installed Avenger on FreeBSD 6.2 as Anti-Spam and I'm not understand some configuration.
1- Avenger as me to create a user 'avenger' in group 'wheel' for its program, but when starts asmtpd , it runs under user: root and group: wheel . What is the utility to create this user 'avenger' then?
2- When I run a Debug Mod, I obtain a permission denied error
It could be a potential security problem if I left "Other" to read virtusertable.db . So my question is: Is there another way to fix this error without changing permission for Other to read virtusertable.db?
I'm migrating from shared hosting to a VPS. I have transferred my files right over, and permissions are all the same as they were on the old server.
The fopen scripts are giving me an error when trying to write to files.
Code: failed to open stream: Permission denied
The permissions on the file are 644 and it can read from the file just fine. Giving the file world write permissions fixes the problem, but I don't want to do this for obvious reasons.
I think the reason this worked on the shared server had something to do with the apache user being defined differently but I'm honestly not sure. The php file executing the command is owned by the user that owns the document I'm trying to write to (in fact one user owns everything).
how I can fix this without giving world write permissions?
I have problem with exim in my dedicated. All days I have more tham 1000 messages in queue. I delete frozen messages and run exim -v -q and after delete all message. Next day I have more that 1000 message in queue.
I see that some local emails was not delivered. So I saw in exim log errors messages as:
=== Message 1K5SHE-0001LE-LS is not frozen delivering 1K5SHE-0001LE-LS LOG: MAIN == dadinho@xx.org R=virtual_user T=virtual_userdelivery defer (13): Permission denied: while opening or reading /home/levarte/mail/xx.org/dadinho/maildirsize ===
But I have not any file called "/home/levarte/mail/xx.org/dadinho/maildirsize"
For one of may domains I'm receiving the following error when someone tries to send mail to it. Also I never receive the mail as it seems to just sit on the server. When the permission were changed on the file, it seemed to have changed back on its on when ever a new address is added. Any solutions?
