Squirrel Mail

[justin3k]

Having so much difficulty doing this, im getting this on the config test page

 

 

ERROR: Data dir (../home/jcmail/.mysqmail/data) does not exist!

 

 

What am I doing wrong here and anybody able to help me out?

 

Thanks.

The two dots ("..") you have at the beginning of the Data directory path don't look like they should be there.

right I found a dot in there so I removed it and now I got this

 

Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_CONSTANT_ENCAPSED_STRING in /home3/sub001/sc275/www/jcmail/config/config.php on line 421

 

 

Getting worst lol

It appears that you edited the wrong thing. I'm seeing line 421 of config.php with this:

>$data_dir = SM_PATH . 'data/';

If that's the line you removed the dot from, you need to put it back. That's not where the problem with your data directory is.

 

Unless it is specified elsewhere, this code is taking the configured SquirrelMail base directory and adding 'data/' to the end of it. Your first error indicates you've configured the following for the SquirrelMail base directory:

>../home/jcmail/.mysqmail/

...but your second error indicates that this is actually the SquirrelMail base directory:

>/home3/sub001/sc275/www/jcmail/

Until you get that sorted out, I don't think SquirrelMail is going to work very well for you.

Im kinda confused coz no matter what I type it keeps coming up with does not exist, I put the dot back in and all, just keeps saying does not exist all the time?
