Pretty "Change Password" patch/module for v0.1RC1(07-7-3), +cPanel, +md5

oslad · June 30, 2006, 10:51:23 PM

Is pleased to announce the PRETTY "Change Password" patch/module for Roundcube v0.1RC1(2007-7-3) is available now!
Add support to cPanel --tested cPanel [10.9.0-RELEASE_57] (pro), md5crypt and verify current password.
Support IMAP database such as mysql, postgresql (and more? see also).

================v0.1-RC1(2007-7-3)================
You have two choice:

1. Download the package directy (the patch has been applied already)

2. Download the patch and apply it
Download roundcubemail-0.1-rc1-dep.tar.gz and this patch(right click, save as...) to a directory(say that /tmp).
$ cd /tmp
$ tar -xzf roundcubemail-0.1-rc1-dep.tar.gz
$ cd roundcubemail-0.1-rc1-dep/
$ patch -p1 < ../roundcubemail-0.1-rc1-dep-pw1.diff
$ tar -czf roundcubemail-0.1-rc1-dep-pw1.tar.gz roundcubemail-0.1-rc1-dep
you will get a file named "/tmp/roundcubemail-0.1-rc1-dep-pw1.tar.gz" has been applied this patch already(it's same as above).

Now, you can use this package just like the original Roundcubemail.

And a additional configuration is required, open "config/db.inc.php" (copy form "config/db.inc.php.dist") to edit. Change the value for your special environment.

// The 'change_pwd_proc' can be 'change_pwd_for_db' or 'change_pwd_for_cpanel',
// If 'change_pwd_for_cpanel' is selected, the value of 'db_imap_xxxxxx' is omitted
$rcmail_config['change_pwd_proc'] = 'change_pwd_for_db';
$rcmail_config['db_imap_dsn'] = 'mysql://dbuser:your_passwd@localhost/mail_db';
$rcmail_config['db_imap_users_table'] = 'accountuser';
$rcmail_config['db_imap_user_field'] = 'username';
$rcmail_config['db_imap_passwd_field'] = 'password';
$rcmail_config['db_imap_passwd_type'] = ''; // '' (Plaintext), 'PASSWORD' or 'ENCRYPT'

For cPanel with non-english version, you may need to edit "program/steps/settings/passwd.inc" and modify:
$success = "Changed password";

Enjoy!

"After upgrade from v0.1beta2 to v0.1-RC1, I can not view e-mail?"
Here is how to resolve it.

As just posted in the other thread... how does it change the IMAP Password?

oslad · July 01, 2006, 09:16:00 AM

As a short/temporary solution, it change the IMAP password from mysql DB directly, not via IMAP protocol.

flosoft · July 01, 2006, 12:21:29 PM

hmm. That might be confusing for the users later on.

igeoffi · July 03, 2006, 01:01:46 AM

correct me if im wrong but by changing it from the database directly, shouldnt that solve the prob of changing passwords in roundcube on diff types of mail servers?

Any types of mail server will be work fine, while the imap/pop user's info(such as: username/password) is stored by mysql.

i have setup a mail server with postfix + cyrus-imap + sasl + mysql, this patch work very well.

rjswilson · July 03, 2006, 11:24:17 AM

yeah..this plugin won't work for me... i have xmail + courier imap + mysql, but mysql stores the password only for courier, not for xmail.

you are correct at this point, i config postfix and cyrus-imap to use the same table for user info.
but store the same user info into different position, is reasonable?

Umm.. I can't download this patch... or maybe I just don't know how...

Hi, Simoesp, it's welcome!

you can modify function "rcmail_save_passwd" in "passwd.inc" file to do that.

but it will be lots of thing to consider. as you can not consider postfix only, else other smtp server such as sendmail, Qmail etc. won't work. i don't know if a standard smtp or imap or pops protocol can use with.

the source code of squirrelmail maybe a very useful reference, but i have no time to read it recently.
