Although disabling multithreaded execution isn't a workable solution
for the mainline

, it will actually work at a very small scale, it will simply answer one
request at a time.

Your stack trace suggests what I had suspected -- the select() system call
is perhaps behaving differently on NetBSD than it does on FreeBSD and Linux.

... it would be developer heaven :)

Thanks, I will give that a try

Hi Guys,

I have been busy day's to get citadel running on my raspberry pi but without success.

The setup and needed download when use easy install are good to go, but when it comes to login to the admin it goes wrong.

When installing the easy install the standard way so use admin and the password citadel for the web cit to login i got always an password error.

If i run the easy installer again and replace the admin and password with some of my own i have the same problem with password error.

I did searched google for an answer but there is less information on how to get it work on Debian bookworm.

 

Maybe someone did had the same problems as i have? and solved them?

Or maybe someone can help me out here? because it is very frustrating when trying days without success.

Thanks in Advance.

Is there nobody who have had the same problem as me with the password not working in Citadel Web-cit?

I did try different distro's for my raspberry pi 4-B and all have the same problem with the password.

Thanks in advance.

More like most of us dont use RPI hardware. If i get a chance this weekend ill try latest easy install on a real ARM SBC.

Does "different distros" include Armbian?

Ok my plans for tonight fell thru and i gave it a shot.

It wont be 1:1 the same as your hardware, other than being an ARM chip ( different family but same concept ), but Armbian is available for the RPI as well. However, i ran into a different issue, where around 95% of the process, the restart of the server hit 100% cpu and hung ( not seen that one before ).  This was not a virgin install, so if i have time tomorrow ill blow the OS away and start over.

As a side note, while im not a docker fan, i did look and RPI4's can run docker.  So that is another option for you, instead of using easyinstall.

And while someone else would need to chime in, i would assume you could go into the DB manually and reset the password to a known value. Just in case something weird is going on with your terminal when you entered it during hte install.

Hi Nurb432,

Thanks for the replay.

Yes i have Armbian on my raspberry pi 4.

But i did try also other distro like ubuntu,Debian,Openelec all have the same problem that the password when logging in Web-Cit is wrong.

So the install has no problems but there is something with the password.

With a bit of luck i can try again today.  I expect a quiet day at work but you never know. Someone like IG can verify my thoughts about the DB.  I have not had to look at the DB before.

I suppose that in some emails clients there is a maximum from
which is cut.

But 70 (??) is too few.

Ok, it will be 256 in the next update.

Ok i wont be of much help on the bad password thing.  Tried an easy install on a fresh minimal Armbian OS, same result as before and it froze up on me during the restart.  I am sure someone will chime in, but might be worth looking at the docker option in the meantime.

I could try the OEM OS, but its not anything you can install on a RPI so not worth it to try.

Hi,

I installed Citadel on Raspbery Pi 5 8GB. I know it is possible because this process is described here:

https://pimylifeup.com/raspberry-pi-email-server/

Unfortunately, after the installation is completed, at the last stage of configuration, when the reconfiguration that ends the installation process is suspended.

Reconfiguring Citadel server
  Citadel Server setup

Restarting Citadel server to apply changes
[***********************************************************************....]

I tried to repeat this process several times but without any changes.

I used the curl and wget installation. Unchanged.

Perhaps someone has already reported such a problem, or you have suggestions what I could do to be able to use your product.

Thank you in advance.

You want to post that in the support room.

And i could be wrong. But i thought id try latest easy install on a virgin x86 Debian load. ( technically FAI, but the Debian based one ) It also froze up right at the end of restarting the server, with nearly 100% CPU use.  So does not appear to be a CPU related thing.

And i meant to include the below in the last message. sorry .. 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Not a huge executable debugger guy..  but i did run strace on the process and got pages of repeating lines, if its any help at all:

read(-1, 0x7ffe2e5f57ef,1 )                  = -1 EBADF ( Bad file descriptor )

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

webcit is trying to use  readdir_r twice in it's install script.  "This function is deprecated; use readdir(3) instead."  From https://www.man7.org/linux/man-pages/man3/readdir_r.3.html

I have reported it and am waiting on any reply.

If you go to /usr/local/webcit  that folder is empty.
