autocreate2 = Junk
autocreate3 = Drafts
autocreate4 = Sent
autosubscribe = Trash
autosubscribe2 = Junk
autosubscribe3 = Drafts
autosubscribe4 = Sent
}

mail_plugins = $mail_plugins

Having problems with folders?

Check out the /home/username/Maildir to see if all the directory are created. If not here is the list of folder to create:

.Trash
.Junk
.Drafts
.Sent

* Make sure to add the folders to roundcube in the “Manage Folders”

Also you have to Change ownership to user:user you have created.

Working now on the .Inbox problem, will keep you posted

phpMyAdmin is part of Extra Packages for Enterprise Linux (EPEL), which is a community repository of non-standard packages for the RHEL distribution. First, we’ll install the EPEL repository:

rpm -iUvh http://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/7/x86_64/e/epel-release-7-5.noarch.rpm

First, you’ll follow a simple best practice: ensuring the list of available packages is up to date before installing anything new.

yum -y update

Then it’s a matter of just running one command for installation via apt-get:

yum -y install phpmyadmin

Step 3: Find Your IP Address

To secure phpMyAdmin we should lock down access to a specific IP address. When the phpMyAdmin package is installed, an Apache Virtual Host file is added to configure web access. Let’s edit that file:

vim /etc/httpd/conf.d/phpMyAdmin.conf

By default, the configuration for phpMyAdmin only allows access from the server on which it is installed. Find the following sections and change each IP address to the one you found in Step 3, or another IP address that will be connecting to phpMyAdmin remotely:

Require ip 127.0.0.1

Allow from 127.0.0.1

Require ip 127.0.0.1

Allow from 127.0.0.1

Then exit and save the file with the command :wq .

Restart Apache:

systemctl restart httpd

Verify that phpMyAdmin is working by visiting http://the_IP_of_your_server/phpmyadmin. For example: http://1.2.3.4/phpmyadmin

Also you will have to go remove the password authetification in the phpmyadmin conf file

After those steps simply create a user with the desired password and all privilege granted!

Et voilà!

Enable GZIP compression on Apache

The instructions and code below will work on Apache. If they are not working there is another way that may work for you. If the above code did not seem to work, remove it from your .htaccess file and try this one instead…

After installing Magento, you have to take care of the “Indexers are invalid” problems.

To reindex in magento 2, go to the CLI and then the root folder of your magento installation and run the below command :

php bin/magento indexer:reindex

This will re-index all components of Magento

* Will find a way to make a automatic Cron job!

Be sure to do the following only if you don’t see the /admin/ or the CSS

I had to go to my apache configuration (/etc/apache2/apache2.conf) and change this:

< Directory /var/www/>
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride none
Require all granted
< /Directory>

To:

< Directory /var/www/>
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride All
Require all granted
< /Directory>

et voilà!

Magento is working now,…! what a pain to install!

The biggest problem was to install the PHPmyAdmin Intl Component!

* Also, I had to upgrade MySQL5.4 to MySQL version 5.6.28
* Will upgrade to version 7.x.x soon,,, maybe!

Notice that in Webmin when you try to stop MySQL Database Server, not working anymore

Manual commands

START: systemctl start mysqld
STOP: systemctl stop mysqld
Restart: systemctl restart mysqld
Status: systemctl status mysqld
Enable at Start: systemctl enable mysqld

Don’t worry Webmin is aware about this situation, maybe in the next upgrade we will have a fix for that!

Running Webmin 1.770
CentOS7 all patched
Apache version 2.4.6
Latest PHPmyAdmin
MySQL version 5.6.28
