I can’t log in to postfixadmin anymore. It says that the username or password is incorrect. It can’t be incorrect as I’ve stored them in Google and “Chrome”. I have two admin accounts and none of them can’t be used for logging in. So I changed the main password with “setup.php” and copied that hash into the configuration file. Then, I deleted one of the admin accounts directly in the database from the table “admin”. Finally, I tried to recreate that deleted admin account using “setup.php”. I get the following error message: “can’t encrypt password with dovecotpw, see error log for details”.

I had a look into the error log file of postfixadmin and found these complaints:

Is the issue connected to the permission problem? If so why is the permission denied?

I can't even receive any mails to the address kalmer@test.tennis24.ee anymore. If I send out it works fine but no mail arrives.
