Hi all:
We've switched to RC Mail some weeks ago, and our clients are very pleased. But I've hit a wall getting the vacation plugin to work. Here are the details (somewhat long, sorry...)
I have the config.ini setup as follows:
[default] driver = "ftp" subject = "Out of Office" body = "default.txt" server = "mail.arava.co.il" passive = True
[dotforward] binary = "/usr/bin/vacation" flags = "" message = ".vacation.msg" database = ".vacation.db" alias_identities = true set_envelop_sender = false always_keep_message = true
If I connect to the mail server with a regular ftp client, I can successfully upload a .forward file, with either passive or active ftp, using either binary or ascii transfer. So the vsftpd daemon is working OK. However when a user tries to use the vacation plugin interface, she gets:
CONFIGURATION ERROR
Vacation plugin: Cannot upload .forward. Check permissions and/or server configuration Please read the INSTALL instructions!
In the roundcubemail errors logfile I see:
[19-Nov-2013 20:48:41 +0200]: PHP Error: Vacation plugin: Cannot upload .forward. Check permissions and/or server configuration in /var/www/html/roundcubemail/plugins/vacation/lib/ftp.class.php on line 0 (POST /?_task=settings&_action=plugin.vacation-save?_task=&_action=)
and the exchange in the vsftpd log file shows:

It seems that the file upload is aborting as soon as it switches to ASCII mode (even though I tried to specify passive = True in config.ini). However, as I said, uploading with a regular ftp client works as expected, in either mode.
Any ideas are most welcome.
Thanks, Micha
I'm baffled by this, Micha. Your config is virtually identical to mine. I changed log mode to vsftp, mine just walks right through the process, never tries ASCII as far as I can see.
I think my next step would be try a manual FTP transaction from the command line of the RC server, if possible.
