Thanks for the reply.
I followed your suggestions, and I got closer.
ls -ld /var/local/squirrelmail/
drwx-wx---. 4 root apache 4096 Nov 2 17:56 /var/local/squirrelmail/
[root@mailserver var]# ls -l /var/local/squirrelmail/
total 8
drwx-wx---. 2 root apache 4096 Nov 2 17:56 data
drwx-wx---. 2 root apache 4096 Nov 2 17:56 tmp
SquirrelMail configtest
This script will try to check some aspects of your SquirrelMail
configuration and point you to errors whereever it can find them. You
need to go run conf.pl in the config/ directory first before you run
this script.
SquirrelMail version: 1.4.22-2.fc15
Config file version: 1.4.0
Config file last modified: 02 November 2011 17:59:25
....................
Checking paths...

Capabilities: * CAPABILITY IMAP4rev1 LITERAL+ SASL-IR
LOGIN-REFERRALS ID ENABLE IDLE STARTTLS AUTH=PLAIN
Checking internationalization (i18n) settings...
gettext - Gettext functions are available. On some systems you
must have appropriate system locales compiled.
mbstring - Mbstring functions are available.
recode - Recode functions are unavailable.
iconv - Iconv functions are available.
timezone - Webmail users can change their time zone settings.
Checking database functions...
not using database functionality.
Congratulations, your SquirrelMail setup looks fine to me!
BUT, on login:
Error opening ../data/default_pref
Default preference file not found or not readable!
Please contact your system administrator and report this error.
grep safe_mod /etc/php.ini | grep -v \;
safe_mode = Off
safe_mode_gid = Off
safe_mode_include_dir =
safe_mode_exec_dir =
safe_mode_allowed_env_vars = PHP_
safe_mode_protected_env_vars = LD_LIBRARY_PATH
sql.safe_mode = Off
I then touch 'd data/default_pref. Permissions 730 did not work, 750 did.
