I got cpanel installed on a my P4 2.8. Was working great until I did all the cpanel, apache, whm updates & restarted. After that it constently fails. This is the error I'm getting.

chalk up another one for me - same issue.

Here is what I get when accessing Squirrel or Horde:
ERROR
Error connecting to IMAP server: localhost.
111 : Connection refused
Go to the login page

Also, I can't startup the Imap service. Does IMAP "need" to run in order to use the webmail clients?

Anyone with a solution??

Do the following:
vi /etc/xinetd.d/imap
It should look like this:

# Converted by inetdconvert
service imap
{
socket_type = stream
protocol = tcp
wait = no
user = root
server = /usr/local/cpanel/3rdparty/bin/imapd
disable = no

Restart IMAP via the WHM and should work.

If that doesn' work, double check and make sure the entries in:

/etc/hosts.deny
and
/etc/hosts.allow

are correct and nothing block IMAPD from accessing 127.1.1..0

Hope this helps!

Yes. Cpanel appears to have done something again that breaks it. In the process list, we now see 30-40 imap processes spawned.

Anyone knows what?

The servers are on 10.4 C154 and automatic updates is disabled.
