After a long period, I recently upgraded from
vpopmail-4.8.5+mysql+sqwebmail-0.31 to
vpopmail-4.9.2+mysql+sqwebmail-0.99.
Unfortunatly there are still some problems.
- Compilation: I faced the same problems as discussed in the list with the
compilation of sqwebmail. The solution was (as still written in the list)
to include the mysql libs explicitly before calling the ./configuration script.
- Mysql database errors: I still find alot of mysql errors like
000907 13:06:37 Aborted connection 12387 to db: 'centraldb' user: 'hero'
host: `xxxx.xxxx.com' (Got an error reading communication packets)
Acording to the ChangeLog:
>>>
4.9.2
Aug 25 - set global close flag for mysql module fixes sqwebmail/mysql bug
<<<
Is this the problem mentioned in the ChangeLog as fixed?
After some investigation, from my point of view the reason is the missing
of some "mysql_close();" statements after database operations in
functions!? Till now I introduced 2 new calls and could cut the errors-rate
to the half but didn't find all neccessary places yet.
- APOP: sqwebmail-0.99+mysql and APOP authentification seems to be broken =
does not work, while "normal" passwords are fine. I'm not sure, if it is a
vpopmail or sqwebmail problem? Does anybody made the same experiences?
