Hi all, new Squirrelmail admin here. Running the latest Squirrelmail on CentOS 6, my valid users get the message "Unknown user or password incorrect." when logging in. I see this in the maillog: Oct 24 13:36:18 sharingcenterservers dovecot: auth: Error: mysql: Query failed, retrying: You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near '��someUser’' at line 1 Oct 24 13:36:18 sharingcenterservers dovecot: auth: Error: sql(beer,127.0.0.1): Password query failed: You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near '��someUser’' at line 1 Oct 24 13:36:20 sharingcenterservers dovecot: imap-login: Aborted login (auth failed, 1 attempts): user=<beer>, method=PLAIN, rip=127.0.0.1, lip=127.0.0.1, mpid=0, secured Oct 24 13:36:30 sharingcenterservers dovecot: auth: Error: mysql: Query failed, retrying: You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near '��anotherUser’' at line 1 Oct 24 13:36:30 sharingcenterservers dovecot: auth: Error: sql(gadi,127.0.0.1): Password query failed: You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near '��anotherUser’' at line 1 Oct 24 13:36:32 sharingcenterservers dovecot: imap-login: Aborted login (auth failed, 1 attempts): user=<gadi>, method=PLAIN, rip=127.0.0.1, lip=127.0.0.1, mpid=0, secured Note that someUser and anotherUser are both valid usernames on the system. The username and the password are identical (someUser:someUser and anotherUser:anotherUser). I can successfully log into ssh with these usernames. What could be the issue?
