Hello all,

 

I just got Citadel running (installed using Easy-Install on a raspi 0w) and am trying to add an attachment to a post in the lobby. When drafting the message, I added the attachment by clicking on the Attachments tab, but I cannot find the attachment after posting. What am I doing wrong here?

 

Thanks for your help

After looking through settings a bit deeper, I found it. Thanks to the developers for this awesome tool.

Subject: Alias Limit

[Reply] [ReplyQuoted] [Headers] [Print]

The documentation says there is no alias limit for a user, but I hit a limit.  I have 50 alias of ~20 characters each.  There appears to be a character limit for the alias field on the Admin window.  There is a row entry limit on the user address card.

How can I (more directly?) enter all my aliases?  I look forward to your reply.

There is no limit to the number of aliases, but there is a finite amount of space to enter them. If you run into this limit you can try adding more to the global alias table, which is truly unlimited.

Subject: easy installed system - upgrade?

[Reply] [ReplyQuoted] [Headers] [Print]

hi, 

I have a working citadel set up that seems to be working ok (Citadel Server 972 with WebCit 974)


I would like to upgrade to the latest version of both server and webcit.  what is the easiest way of doing this without having to follow the  compilation process "make upgrade" etc?


Is there a way I can use the "easy install" method that will upgrade my system without losing data?


thanks

Craig.

If you performed the original installation using Easy Install, you can also upgrade using Easy Install.

It will detect that you have an existing installation and automatically perform an upgrade.

If you built it manually, just take a good backup, then delete everything except the following directories:
/usr/local/citadel/data
/usr/local/citadel/keys
/usr/local/citadel/files
/usr/local/citadel/messages
And then either run Easy Install or deploy the Docker container version.
Again, your existing data will be detected and it will perform an upgrade.

Excellent!  So, my interpretation is those are mutually exclusive, but mutually applicable fields.  In other words: no overlap and they both apply.

The global list is processed first, and can expand aliases to multiple users.
After that is done, it looks up individual recipients (and/or rooms) using their own aliases.

Subject: smart host issues

[Reply] [ReplyQuoted] [Headers] [Print]

Hi Team,

I'm hoping someone can help with some advice. I've recently installed citadel via easyinstall script but I'm struggling with outbound email. I'm running the server on a residential connections which blocks port 25 so I've setup a smart host in the format username:password@smtp_relay:port . I've also made sure my SSL certs are valid and I can receive emails. Outbound, the smart host keeps throwing an authentication error 535. There are no smart host logs unfortunately but I've turned debugging on the citadel server with the following output

I've run a packet capture but the traffic is SSL encrypted so I can see why its throwing an error. I have tested the smart host connection via telnet and I can connect and send emails.

Is there anyway I can see what username and password is being sent to the smart host? I'd greatly appreciate any advice or suggestions you have.

Thanks,

Jonathan

I don't think so, but you might try putting smtp:// in front of your username and password.

Hint: it's using libcurl to send mail, so what you're sending it is an SMTP URL that is valid for curl. If you want to troubleshoot it from the command line, you can test using something like [ 

[ https://everything.curl.dev/usingcurl/smtp ]

and when you've got the correct SMTP URL for your setup, you can drop that back into Citadel.

Understood. :)  I can work with that.

Any plans to update the input fields so they are no longer the restriction to taking full advantage of truly unlimited aliases as per the documentation?  Time frame?

I have remote retrieval setup to poll my email at Godaddy.com every 900 seconds via POP3.  It pulls emails from 2005 to 2016 into Citadel; whereas my Godaddy.com email history extends to the present.  What to do?

I have reviewed the code and can't figure it out, and the person who wrote it is no longer involved in the project.

This is one of the reasons WebCit is being rewritten. :(

I have Citadel running on a Raspberry PI for my Dronesforhire.us and it works great.  I would like to add redpugtechsol.com to it as well.  Is that  something Citadel supports and if so the best practice for doing so as well as the certificate?

Thanks.

I keep getting the following in my /var/log/messages:

Jun 23 17:37:17 citadel syslogd: last message repeated 64 times

I can't do anything! I can't read mail, can't check the outbound SMTP queue, NOTHING!  I can tell it to HALT but then I can't do anything else.  Grrr!  Halp?
