I have a Debian
Lenny 64 bit machine. I originally installed Squirrelmail using apt-get
install squirrelmail which gave me version 1.4.15. By default, this
version is installed to /usr/share/squirrelmail on Debian
Lenny.
I wanted to upgrade
to Squirrelmail version 1.4.19. So I created a new folder
/usr/share/squirrelmail-1.4.19, unpacked the files from the Squirrelmail
website, and ran the conf.pl script to configure. In essence, this is a
brand new installation and not an attempt to upgrade on top of the original
1.4.15 files. I have mimicked the way Debian installs and just changed the
symlink in the /var/www folder from /usr/share/squirrelmail to
/usr/share/squirrelmail-1.4.19. After some initial testing, the system was
running fine sending and receiving emails.
I then wanted to
install the first new plugin for the newer version. There are no other
plugins installed as this is a fresh Squirrelmail installation. I followed
the instructions in the plugin install file. When I reached the point
where I was to activate the plugin from the conf.pl file, I noticed that no
plugins were shown in the configuration menu. I didn't expect any plugins
to be installed and activated yet, but there also were none shown as being
available.
Just to double
check, I undid my changes and restored the directory structure to that of the
original Debian install that resulted from using apt-get. When accessing
the ./conf.pl program plugins menu, all the available plugins are
listed.
I have doubled
checked permissions and ownership on both the plugins directory and the files
contained within. The permissions and ownership are identical in the new
folder as the default Debian installed plugins folder.
I also ran the
configtest.php utility and no errors were found with the new
installation.
I looked through the
known bugs, FAQs and search the email list with Nabble. I didn't see
anything that described this particular problem.
I can provide more
information on the system if needed. I am running Apache2, Courier, PHP5,
& Postfix; all the latest versions available from the stable Debian Lenny
apt-get cache.
Thanks,
Tom
