Question

Setting up email server for wordpress 1 click install

Posted September 8, 2020 773 views

Hello i’m trying to setup my email on my server per the tutorial posted on digital ocean(https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-configure-a-mail-server-using-postfix-dovecot-mysql-and-spamassassin). When I get to the step:

INSERT INTO servermail.virtual_users
(id, domain_id, password , email)
VALUES
(‘1’, '1’, ENCRYPT('firstpassword’, CONCAT(’$6$’, SUBSTRING(SHA(RAND()), -16))), ’email1@example.com’),
('2’, '1’, ENCRYPT('secondpassword’, CONCAT(’$6$’, SUBSTRING(SHA(RAND()), -16))), ’email2@example.com’);

I get an error:
ERROR 1305 (42000): FUNCTION servermail.ENCRYPT does not exist

How can this be fixed so I can have access to email. Thanks.

Hi @brianallen714,

Can you confirm where exactly are you getting this error, the above mentioned 


INSERT INTO `servermail`.`virtual_domains`
(`id` ,`name`)
VALUES
('1', 'example.com'),
('2', 'hostname.example.com');

Needs to be added in your MySQL DB which you have configured previously.

Are you executing the query there?

Hello,

Think that the ENCRYPT function was depricated in the latest versions.
https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/8.0/en/encryption-functions.html

You should be able to use the SHA2() https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/8.0/en/encryption-functions.html#function_sha2

Hope this might help you.
