Hi there,

I've been plodding along my first install of Carbonio, first looks is that it looks like a great product. (I've only re-installed once so far! 🤣 )

 

Right so, I've managed to install certs, request DKIM etc for my domain but I'm struggling to send anything at all?

 

I need to be able to use external SMTP for deliverability purposes. Microsoft make it impossible to really use your own SMTP these days regardless whether all the security checks pass. I use AWS S3 and I followed these two articles/posts:

 

https://community.zextras.com/forum/carbonio-setup/mta-relay-not-using-authentication/#post-6696

https://wiki.zimbra.com/wiki/Outgoing_SMTP_Authentication

 

Unfortunately I cannot send anything at all, I click send, it says it is sending and then the message composer window pops back up. I cannot see anything that means much to me in the logs but I'm not up to speed with the Contabo "log language" yet.

 

Another thing I am struggling with is that, when rebooting the server, a few services do not start and I have to manually start them from CLI - this probably isn't the best practice so any pointers to fix this would be handy. Confused as to why it should be doing this.

Hi,

May be this reply could be some help for you:

https://community.zextras.com/forum/postid/9661/

But in addition, I would request you to check followings: (if possible in order)

  • Are all services running:
  • Can you send emails from webmail? What does log (/var/log/carbonio.log) says about successful delivery? If can't send emails via webmail, still what does log says in case of failed attempt?
  • What dos log says in case of failed attempt using external app/software?

Once we understand these, I hope you will be able to find out the issue.

Regards,

Sharif

zmcontrol are now all running after I manually restarted them all.

 

consul members:

Error retrieving members: Get "http://127.0.0.1:8500/v1/agent/members?segment=_all": dial tcp 127.0.0.1:8500: connect: connection refused

curl -s -v http://127.78.0.4:10000/health | jq:

* Failed to connect to 127.78.0.4 port 10000 after 0 ms: Could not connect to server
* closing connection #0

systemctl list-units carbonio* shows carbonio.service is not running (failed)

  • I attempted to restart it and now it says exited.

Sending from webmail doesn't work. It just waits a few seconds before bringing up the email compose window again with the email I just tried to send. Below is the log just after attempting to send:

Also there was nothing different in the logs when sending from the iOS app.

Just FYI, I went ahead and did a full re-install and still exactly the same issue.U

 

I can receive mail, just this same issue sending. It seems it's not even getting as far as the logs to know what's happening.

 

I'm running on Ubuntu 22.04.

Did I miss a step in the install for this?

 

root@mailserver:~# curl -s -v  http://127.78.0.4:10000/health  | jq

It tells me

* connect to 127.78.0.4 port 10000 failed: Connection refused
* Failed to connect to 127.78.0.4 port 10000 after 0 ms: Connection refused
* Closing connection 0

@sharif I just can't send any mail at all. There is nothing in the logs. I'm so confused. Any help would be great?
