On new eFa v5 Mail watch SQL error

Post by ajmind »

In maillog I could see:

Mail watch: SQLSpamsettings:: unable to initialise database connection: Access denied for user 'mailwatch'@'localhost' (using password:YES)

In Mailwatch webgui I do not see messages which has sent under the quarantine day even that they were sent and visible at the related path.

Any help is welcome as I am sticking with a broken eFa v4 production box which do not trust our internal mailserver since a few days.
(only after reboot messages are flowing for 30 minutes)

So I want to switch to the new system, but could not due to the problem mentioned above.

I have not set any passwords for the configuration files mentioned unter /etc/eFa.

Maybe due to the switch from testing towards release repo something has been changed?

What version of eFa 5 are you running? Are you on v5.0.0-8 ?

Yes, I am on the latest available version. I have started with the beta, I think it was 5.0.04 or 5.0.05. Then switched to the release repo.

I will report asap, as I am at Lanzarote island without access to my computer.

I could confirm that the problem has not shown up again after applying the update.sh.

Next weekend I will change the mail flow from our eFa v4 box to the new setup as a final test.

Update 08.07.2024:

eFa v5.0.0.8 is now in production and is running fine as expected since yesterday.
