- Helpful Hint: Vpopmail configuration options -
The vpopmail "configure" command can have loads of options. Use
"./configure --help" to see them all. In the syntax used in this
installation, I specify to the type of logging that I want vpopmail to
use. Vpopmail logs its activities to the server's syslog and there are
several options you can use. I've used the "p" option, but feel free to
adjust it to your needs. Here's are the details:
--enable-logging=n
- logs nothing
--enable-logging=e
- logs only errors (default)
--enable-logging=y
- logs all attempts
--enable-logging=p
- logs errors with passwords
--enable-logging=v
- verbose. Logs all attempts with passwords
Wait! I'm getting an error! What do I do?
If you are using GCC version 3.x, you may get a compilation error
similar to this:
In file included from vconvert.c:35:
vmysql.h:53:22: missing terminating " character
vmysql.h:60:35: missing terminating " character
make[2]: *** [vconvert.o] Error 1
If you get this error, you will need to apply a patch to Vpopmail:
patch
< /downloads/qmailrocks/patches/vmysql.patch
Once you've applied the patch, try running "make" and "make install" again and you should be ok.
