I've changed the permissions in as many places as possible but it's still erroring 

I assumed citadel is using root? as I started the citadel process under root (service citadel start)

Citadel is started as root (usually by systemd or its equivalent) but then it will drop its permissions to another user (perhaps a user called "citadel") in most configurations.

You can do a "ps auxf" to find what user name citserver is running at,  then change your certificate file permissions to handle that. 

Is there any way I can get my username changed here?

Hi, citadel service is running under citadel user... I changed all the symbolic link permissions with chown -h citadel:root as well as the actual key.  

same error in the logs, even after service restart.

!?!?

I am running Debian 12, do you know if OPENID is still supported and what libraries LDAP requires so that the modules are built during the easy setup process?

I would like like to run both OpenID and LDAP but see very limited support.

What i actually need to know is what dependencies do I need to pre-load so that the easy install script will recognize the OpenID and LDAP need to build those modules. This is for Linux/Debian 12

New to this support Forum, looking for search.
Need help on SSL letsencrypt. Domain on server is registered with letsencrypt

Hi,

Thanks

How do i configure the LDAP connector?

I have added the following packages and dependacies

sudo apt-get install "libnss-ldap"

The LIBNSS-LDAP on Linux/Debian 12

Im having similar issues...

When I try and paste it into my DNS manager I get a error about it being too long. I think only 1024 bit signing works and it looks like you are creating 2048? My 1024 bit keys work fine...

1024 bit keys are deprecated by a lot of places now.  Sending an email signed by a 1024 bit key is almost as undesirable as not signing it at all.  I would definitely suggest finding out how to get the longer string into your DNS manager instead of trying to figure out how to get Citadel to generate a shorter key.

Here's a Server Fault article where people are discussing the same topic: 

https://serverfault.com/questions/255580/how-do-i-enter-a-strong-long-dkim-key-into-dns

Ok I will ask my dns provider, hover.com...

OpenID isn't supported anymore, no one was using it and it was becoming a burden to maintain. In the future we are likely to add OAuth and/or SAML because that seems to be what the world is using now.

LDAP is fully supported in every build. If you have Citadel you have LDAP.

Mr. Foobar and Support Team,

If LDAP is fully supported, how do you get rid of the message, "NOTE: This Citadel server has been built without LDAP support. These options will have no effect." 

Please also not that my install was partially executed and that i had to manually add some of the "systemctl services"

How do I ENABLE the LDAP support?

Is it possible to RECONFIGURE a Citadel Server once you install the libldap2-dev libraries for LDAP support?

Is it best to go with the source code or easy setup or docker?

I am not sure why I am getting the BUILT WITHOUT LDAP SUPPORT message.

Please advise on other options that I may try. I am willing to do a complete FRESH install.

Dear All,

I installed Spamassassin and configured in Citadel.
