tempdelete.pl problem

Forums: 

Hi,

Since upgrading Webmin do 1.520, I've got this error everyday at 23:30 (I receive it in my mail because it's triggered by a cron task) :

Failed to run /usr/libexec/webmin/cron/tempdelete.pl : No such file or directory at /etc/webmin/cron/tempdelete.pl line 11.

  1. It's annoying
  2. It's a little alarming

Can I have support on this please ? Thanks.

LDAP Users and Groups

Forums: 

As per an old issue: https://www.virtualmin.com/node/14248

I have configured LDAP and it's all working. The problem is when I try to use Webmin's LDAP Users and Groups module. Even with the module fully setup, the LDAP Client and Server modules are showing up great, but the Users and Groups won't show up as "installed" unless I manually adjust the /etc/webmin/installed.cache and set ldap-useradmin=1.

Bind Problem

Forums: 

I keep getting this error when trying to download / update the root zone. The current file has nothing in it.

Failed to re-download root zone : Failed to write to /var/named/run-root/var/named/run-root/var/named.root : Bad file descriptor

I am getting the bad file descriptor issue when creating master zones. If a master zone get created it can not find the file because it did not create it.

I am lost can anyone help?

Also why is the file being called from /var/named/run-root/var/named/run-root/var/named.root and not /var/named/run-root/var/ZONE_FILE ?

Need help configuring SendMail network ports from Webmin/Virtualmin!

Forums: 

I can receive email just fine, and PHP can send mail directly through SendMail, but for some reason I can't send email over port 25 or 465 (using SSL).

Preferably, I'd like to be able to send email over port 465 using SSL. From "Network Ports", I added port 465 on all addresses. My network ports table now looks like this:
