Vacation Plugin
« on: November 09, 2013, 01:59:18 PM »
Hello,

I have installed the vacation plugin for Roundcube.  The tab shows up like it should.  When I click on it, I get an error:

CONFIGURATION ERROR

Vacation plugin: Cannot connect to the FTP-server 'GEMLIN0000'
Please read the INSTALL instructions!

GEMLIN000 is the actual name of the server.

I have ProFTPD installed.

My config.ini file:

[default]
driver = "ftp"
subject = "Default subject"
body = "default.txt"


[dotforward]
binary = "/usr/bin/vacation"
flags = ""
message = ".vacation.msg"
database = ".vacation.db"
alias_identities = true
set_envelop_sender = false
always_keep_message = true

The path to the plugin is: /var/lib/roundcube/plugins/vacation

Please advise.

Have a great day,

Don

I use FTP on my install, here is what I needed to use to make it work:

Code: [Select]
[default]
driver = "ftp"
subject = "Default subject"
body = "default.txt"
server = "1xx.41.xx.xxx"
passive = true

[dotforward]
binary = "/usr/bin/vacation"
flags = "-j"
message = ".vacation.msg"
database = ".vacation.db"
alias_identities = false
set_envelop_sender = false

You will also need to make certain that local users are allowed FTP access on the server, as the plugin uses the user's authentication (username and password) for the FTP transaction.

Hello,

I have to claim ignorance.  I am not sure how to deal with "You will also need to make certain that local users are allowed FTP access on the server, as the plugin uses the user's authentication (username and password) for the FTP transaction."  Please advise.

Have a great day,

Don
