Think I may have gotten past the initial service start.

 

In /usr/local/citadel, ran the database cleanup script

    sudo ./database_cleanup.sh

********************************

GOT:

you will need 28Mof free space.

 

We will attempt to look for a Citadel database in /usr/local/citadel/data

Do you want to continue? Y

 

DO NOT INTERRUPT THIS PROCESS.

 

Dumping cdb.00

db_dump: BDB5115 open: cdb.00: No such file or directory

error 1

Exiting.

*********************************
 
Then ran;  "sudo ./citserver" to see if the error was still there...
 
Was able to start the successfully start the citadel service.  But now I get "%username% not found in login page

It sounds like you did something that damaged your database.  If database_cleanup.sh doesn't fix it, you should definitely restore your most recent backup.

As a matter of normal operation, please make sure you always have ample free space on your disk.

Subject: enable debug logging level

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

I am trying use the aerc email client with my citadel server (version 957).  Aerc works fine with my gmail account (trying to get rid of that).

Aerc connects and displays the imap folders and the number of messages in each folder but does not retrieve the messages.  The aerc logs are showing the following error:

2022/08/30 17:50:07 Opening INBOX

I think that the message, "Found 0 UIDs" might be what is causing the problem.

I don't see any errors in the citadel syslog so I am wondering how to enable a different logging level to show citadel's debug logs?

Or if anyone has any other ideas or possible experience getting the aerc client to work?

Thank you

Subject: Slow down LDAP logins?

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

Hello! We run citadel with active directory and its been very wonderful but our tech wants to know if theres a way to turn up the time until next LDAP login.. the citadel server creates a login request every single second. its configured right and looks to be successfully authenticated, but it happens too often and our tech would like to be able to set it to happen every minute or every 5 minutes as we assume its for the SMTP server

Just tried running citadel from docker, but webcit would exit, returning code 101. My admittidly brief search of the web documentation didn't turn anything up. Any suggestions as to where I can look?

Are you running on docker or bare metal?

Citadel does not do that unless someone is trying to log in.   Best guess here is that some spammer is trying to brute force your Citadel server via its SMTP port.

Check your logs and figure out who the culprit is, and block their IP address.

Exit code 101 means it can't migrate the configuration.  Do you have an old citadel.config file lying around?  If so, try moving it out of the way (somewhere safe-- don't delete it) before starting Citadel.

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

Help.

Hope this is the right place to go. If not where should I go?

This is a new PI with Debian's latest OS.

I installed Debian with no problems.

I downloaded and installed Citadel from instructions found on Google or Pi's pages.

The install appears to have completed but when I try to start the server, nothing happens.

What should I do next?

TIA, A4ginatl.

It should auto start. Might want to share the instructions you used.

Well, for starters, you posted your request for Citadel help in the Lobby, which the support page clearly says not to do. I have moved your request to the Citadel Support room. I hope you find your way here.

You need to let us know where you read the instructions and what installation method you used (Easy Install, Docker, compiled from source, etc). Also if you used the .deb packages in the Raspberry Pi OS repositories you will have to start over, as those packages are very old and unsupported.

I lost my reply so starting again.

Today I was able to start Citadel and get the prompt page. However, I must have fat fingered the password because it does not like my password.

I did not use root as its common to all, but for now that was not a good idea.

Whats the best way to reset the password or do I have to install citadel again and use all the defaults?

TIA, A4ginATL.

Can it be changed in the password file?
