How to set-up default page for cpanel account?
1. Create a default page that you want to be the default page.
2. Copy your created page to /root/cpanel3-skel/public_html/
That’s all! Every time you create an account on WHM your default page will be create on accounts public_html folder.
For reseller accounts that don’t have root privileged, you should have /cpanel3-skel/ directory on your main account you can add public_html folder their.
First make sure you know your mysql root password, you have to replace DATABASEPASSWORD to your mysql root password.
If you have already used RoundCube installation please make sure you remove any traces of it with,
cd /usr/local/cpanel/base
rm -rf roundcube*
mysql -p -e 'drop database roundcube';
chattr -i /usr/local/cpanel/base/frontend/x/webmaillogin.html
chattr -i /usr/local/cpanel/base/webmaillogin.cgi
/scripts/upcp
[ad#squere-ads]
You will have to specify your root password when prompted.
Now lets download roundcube first and chmod the directorys
cd /usr/local/cpanel/base
wget -O roundcube.tar.gz http://heanet.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/roundcubemail/
roundcubemail-0.1-rc1.tar.gz
tar -zxvf roundcube.tar.gz
rm -rf roundcube.tar.gz
mv -f roundcubemail-0.1-rc1 roundcube
cd roundcube
chmod -R 777 temp
chmod -R 777 logs
Create the database and install the intial sql file. The following commands will do this for you.
mysql -e "CREATE DATABASE roundcube;" -pDATABASEPASSWORD
mysql -e "use roundcube; source SQL/mysql.initial.sql;" -pDATABASEPASSWORD
Now lets sort out the configuration
cd config
mv db.inc.php.dist db.inc.php
mv main.inc.php.dist main.inc.php
Now open db.inc.php
nano db.inc.php
Find
$rcmail_config['db_dsnw'] = 'mysql://roundcube:pass@localhost/roundcubemail';
Replace with
$rcmail_config['db_dsnw'] = 'mysql://root:DATABASEPASSWORD@localhost/roundcube';
Now Open main.inc.php
nano main.inc.php
Find
$rcmail_config['default_host'] = '';
Replace with
$rcmail_config['default_host'] = 'localhost';
Now we have to configure cPanel to show roundcube in the theme. Please note this is for the X theme(default) only!! If you use another theme please skip the next part and see below.
cd /usr/local/cpanel/base/roundcube/skins/default/images/
cp --reply=yes roundcube_logo.png /usr/local/cpanel/base/frontend/x/images/roundcube_logo.png
cp --reply=yes roundcube_logo.png /usr/local/cpanel/base/webmail/x/images/roundcube_logo.png
cd /usr/local/cpanel/base
wget http://www.hostgeekz.com/files/hostgeekz/HGpatch-roundcube-0.1-rc1
patch -p0 < HGpatch-roundcube-0.1-rc1
**NOTE** If you receive a message stating
Reversed (or previously applied) patch detected! Assume -R?
please press N for No as this is because you previously installed roundcube
This will auto do all the necessary changes to roundcube and the X theme.
Once the patch is executed you may now access roundcube via http://yourip/webmail
—–
If you do not use the X theme please do the following
cd /usr/local/cpanel/base
wget http://www.hostgeekz.com/files/hostgeekz/HGpatch-roundcube-NON-X-0.1-rc1
patch -p0 < HGpatch-roundcube-NON-X-0.1-rc1
Then open your webmaillogin.html, please replace YOURTHEME with the name of your theme.
nano /usr/local/cpanel/base/frontend/YOURTHEME/webmaillogin.html
and find
Add Below
***UPDATE***
Remember to chattr +i the files or add the patch to your /scripts/upcp.
chattr +i /usr/local/cpanel/base/frontend/x/webmaillogin.html
chattr +i /usr/local/cpanel/base/webmaillogin.cgi
