disable third party plugins one by one and find plugin that caused this error. Stock SquirrelMail plugins should not cause this php error message. > My squirrelmail installation dir (owned by apache user and group) has the > following permissions: > drwxr-sr-x 16 4096 Nov 3 18:00 squirrelmail.stable > drwxr-sr-x 2 4096 Nov 10 11:28 src it looks like you mixed two squirrelmail versions. > I researched the problem and those who resolved in the past did so via > file permissions (which makes sense), but even 777 does not resolve this > problem. I did some slight debugging to see why the pref file is being > created in / instead of /data, but I can't spend more time on the issue > right now. > > Does anyone have suggestions on how to figure out the problem or where I > should be looking to allow squirrelmail sufficient privileges to overcome > this issue? Install squirrelmail 1.4.6cvs in other directory and try to reproduce your problem without any third party plugins. -- Tomas ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is sponsored by: Tame your development challenges with Apache's Geronimo App Server.
