Centos 7.4 1708 update, cannot retrieve emails

Post by pcaviede » 2017/09/20 17:10:52

Hi:
I'm in trouble after updating my server running Centos 7, to the new 1708 release last Thursday. After the upgrade, I cannot access my email directories. Attempting to access via POP3 or Webmail (Roundcube) gives this message:

Server error: STATUS: Internal error occurred. Refer to server log for more information. [2017-09-20 14:05:52] (0.002 + 0.000 + 0.001 secs).

Mail directories can only be accessed via root. All users cannot access their individual directories, obtaining read-only errors. Sending mail works fine.

I'd greatly appreciate your help

Hi,

did you check the mount of the file system mount points?

Run aureport -a as root on the server and see if there are events logged that have the right timestamp to be related. Take the number off the right hand end of those lines and use it in ausearch -a nnnn (nnnn being the number) to see more info about each one. Maybe you need to set an selinux boolean?
The future appears to be RHEL or Debian. I think I'm going Debian.

CentOS 5 and 6 are deadest, do not use them.
