Hi everyone

Yesterday evening I re-installed my Wheezy VM to start from scratch (now I 
have a snapshot to restart from scratch without re-installing the OS =) ). 
Here is my experience installing kolab-3.0:

== Package installation ==
Was successfull without any troubles

== Running setup-kolab ==
Everything worked fine. I just had to remember the MySQL root password which 
was asked during the MySQL Debian package installation. If you choose to take 
the default password proposed by setup-kolab the setup will fail because of no 
access to the DB. Maybe there should be a hint in the documentation or in the 
output of setup-kolab

== First login ==
The first login did not work. I always got an error message. After some 
logfile analysis I enabled mod_rewrite. After that, the login to the webadmin 
was working. Maybe the package "kolab-webadmin" should enable mod_rewrite 
during it's installation. I'm not shure if you just could run "a2enmod 
rewrite" in the post-install script.

== Creating a Mailbox ==
Everything looked good in the webinterface, but running "kolab list-mailboxes" 
gives me the following error:
pykolab.imap WARNING Could not connect to Cyrus IMAP server 
'imaps://localhost:993'

Checking if Cyrus is running and listening:
netstat -naput | grep 993
tcp        0      0 0.0.0.0:993             0.0.0.0:*               LISTEN      
4433/cyrus-master

4433/cyrus-master

Checking /var/log/syslog:
imaps[4462]: accepted connection
master[12202]: about to exec /usr/lib/cyrus-imapd/imapd
imaps[4462]: TLS server engine: cannot load CA data

imapd.pem'
imaps[4462]: TLS server engine: cannot load cert/key data

imaps[12202]: executed

master[4433]: service imaps pid 4462 in BUSY state: terminated abnormally

And more errors:
postfix/smtpd[11864]: warning: cannot get RSA certificate from file 
/etc/pki/tls/private/localhost.pem: disabling TLS support
postfix/smtpd[11864]: warning: TLS library problem: 
11864:error:02001002:system library:fopen:No such file or 
directory:bss_file.c:398:fopen('/etc/pki/tls/private/localhost.pem','r'):

routines:SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file:system lib:ssl_rsa.c:722:

Many times:
IOERROR: opening /var/lib/imap/user_deny.db: No such file or directory

So it looks like there is something wrong with the certificates.

Cheers,
Tobias
