How to make a first login?

[Dr. Nefelim]

Hi!

I've installed newest version of Roundcube (0.3.1) at my host without any problems, but how can I make my first login to the system? What login & password should I use? Can't guess... I tried my mail server account details, but login failed. I did not specify any admin or user account details through the installation due they weren't required.

You need to login to your mail account witch should be user@domain.com and your password.

[Dr. Nefelim]

Well, I tried, but got "Login failed" message. My account works correctly in various mail clients and webmail clients (mail collector services). There were no errors through Roundcube installation. Thanks for your answer, may be I should try to re-install Roundcube...

[SKaero]

Make sure your mail server is set correctly.

[Dr. Nefelim]

But how can I set my mail server correctly, if I can't login? Should I re-install Roundcube?

[SKaero]

Before you can login you need to tell RoundCube your mail server. In /config/main.inc.php set $rcmail_config['default_host'] to your mail server.

[Dr. Nefelim]

In /config/main.inc.php set $rcmail_config['default_host'] to your mail server.

It set ok, incoming mail test works fine while installation process. May be I made some mistakes in "$rcmail_config['username_domain']" (filled "domain.com") or "$rcmail_config['mail_domain']" (empty)?

I got the same problem. The client authenticated successfully with the imap server but I couldn't get in rc. Just got login page.

rc 0.3.1 (complete)
Mandriva 2009.0

I have noticed that rc 0.3.1 doesn't have mysql support but mysqli. I didn't install mysqli. Does this make any difference? I have tried changing DSN to use mysqli but same result.

May be this is the problem?

Well, I found a solution by myself. There are no users in system after installation, so they must be created and their accounts data must be equal to host mail server accounts. Set "$rcmail_config['auto_create_user']" in "main.inc.php" to "true" instead "false" to automatically create new users. Now Roundcube works fine.

HI ,

 Sorry now i had attached my screen shot

[Dr. Nefelim]

This screenshot reports nothing, no errors. You can't login from main page or you have problems with installation? I set up RoundCube and then failed to login from main page, so I changed the mentioned setting in configuration file. Check your DB manually - is there any users.

Hello all
I’ve read this treat because I had same problem with first login.

After several attempts I could not log in. Then I checked the error log and saw that the login name was the login name for my postbox account, but doubled.

Login for my post box account: webxp1

Login attempt from system with: webxp1@webxp1

Then I searched in config/main.inc.php the entry $rcmail_config['username_domain'] . The entry was set to $rcmail_config['username_domain'] = 'webxp1'; I empty this entry to $rcmail_config['username_domain'] = '';

When I logged in everything worked fine.

Kind regards,
