I have apache installed on Debian 7 and would like webmail in all areas of my VPS, when a field visit www.yourdomain.com/webmail goes to the webmail software that is installed in /var/www/webmail/
How can I do this? I have to put in the vhost file for each domain?
There are a variety of methods for this if you are using Apache. You can add an "alias" directive to each domain that points to the common mailserver software:
Handling outbound addressing in this setting can be tricky. In SquirrelMail, for instance, you'll need to use its personalization features so each person sends mail with the proper user@domain. Without this you can end up with everyone having "From: user@yourdomain.com" addresses rather than "From: user@herdomain.com".Code:<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName www.domain1.name
Alias /webmail /var/www/webmail
[stuff]
</VirtualHost>
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName www.domain2.name
Alias /webmail /var/www/webmail
[stuff]
</VirtualHost>
If you have some experience with PHP (I'm guessing that is what the webmail software is written in), you could design a custom login page where the person enters user@domain.name and a password. You would then parse the domain from the login address and proceed accordingly.
Was putting a file in the directory webmail.conf /etc/apache2/conf.d/
With the following content:
Alias /webmail /var/www/webmail/
<Directory "/var/www/webmail/">
Options Indexes FollowSimlinks
AllowOverride None
Order allow, deny
Allow from all
AddDefaultCharset off
</ Directory>
This recognizes the way I want, but this appears "No input file specified.".
I'm doing it right? How can I fix this error?
FollowSymLinks is misspelled.
Also your first stop in debugging is to check /var/log/apache2/error.log.
No error on the case.
