Problem with Telnet & Horde

[kep100]

Just installed Plesk 8.2 and was trying to telnet into poppassd as I did before using "telnet localhost 106".

Now I get a message saying telnet can't connect to localhost.

I also tested trying to change my email password in Horde and I get a script error saying basically the same thing...cannot connect to localhost.

Any ideas on what caused this and/or how to fix it?

Thanks.

As far as I know in Plesk 8.2 poppssd is listening on 8106. Try to change port to 8106 in C:\...\webmail\horde\passwd\config\backends.php) :

$backends['poppassd'] = array(
'name' => 'poppassd server',
'preferred' => '',
'password policy' => array(),
'driver' => 'poppassd',
'params' => array(
'host' => 'localhost',
'port' => 106
)
);

Change port to 8106, my horde works now=)

At least I got in...

Thanks for the quick reply.

I tried changing to port 8106 and poppassd DID run and went through the whole routine as it normally does but at the end I got a 500: Unexpected error. Same error using the Horde interface.

Any thoughts on what it might be and how to fix it?

More info

After getting the 500 error (see last message), I checked the Event Log and under Plesk, it shows an error with regard to applysecrity.exe. The message is:

The system cannot find the file specified. (Error code 2) at Unable to connect to pipe \\.\pipe\psapipe
at (Con::ClientOverlappedPipe::create line 482)
at get shared instance of PleskSrvClient(PleskSrvClient::getInstance line 255)
at Update component SiteBuilder for Windows(VComponenInfo::ComponentUpdateThread::execute line 104)
Execute file name: c:\Program Files\SWsoft\Plesk\admin\bin\ApplySecurity.exe

I think this is what's causing the problem with poppassd generating the 500 error. Since I have no idea how Plesk actually works and the people I pay each month for it's use (GoDaddy) are of no help whatsoever, I was hoping someone here might be able to help me solve this problem or tell me what might be causing it.

In advance, thanks for any help you can give me.

Try to restart Plesk management Service. Also make sure that update is installed

Thank you! It works!

It now works! I tried it using telnet with a short password (4 characters) after the update and I got the 500 error. However, when I tried it in Horde itself, it worked fine (with an 8 character password).

I then tried the same thing using telnet and it worked just as it should.

Thank you so much for your help!
