Topic: <SOLVED> trouble installing 0.7.0 onto clean Ubuntu on Linode

Hi there - can't find an answer so I need to ask, sorry.
I'm preparing a major update to my Linode production server on a backup Linode - running Ubuntu.  Everything goes fine until I try to install iRedMail.  I've been using 0.5.1 on my production server for quite a while.

I'll add later the script I use to build the software stack before the iRedMail installation.  The trouble I have is during the iRedMail install I run into errors.  The first sign of trouble was:

Setting up postfix-pcre (2.7.0-1) ...
Adding pcre map entry to /etc/postfix/dynamicmaps.cf
Setting up postfix-policyd (1.82-2ubuntu5) ...
dbconfig-common: writing config to /etc/dbconfig-common/postfix-policyd.conf
Creating config file /etc/postfix-policyd.conf with new version
ERROR 1045 (28000): Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: NO).
unable to connect to mysql server.
error encountered creating user:
ERROR 1045 (28000): Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: NO)
dbconfig-common: postfix-policyd configure: aborted.

dpkg: error processing postfix-policyd (--configure):
 subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1
Setting up python-jinja2 (2.3.1-1) ...
Setting up python-ldap (2.3.10-1ubuntu1) ...

There's more stuff then the installation fails.  At this point I've tried:

apt-get update
apt-get upgrade

or

apt-get install postfix-policyd

      (suggestion I found somewhere)

And then I re-run the installation, which this time completes.  When I go to the xxxxx.com/mail page to check the webmail I always get the following error:

ERROR: Wrong 'suhosin.session.encrypt' option value. Read REQUIREMENTS section in INSTALL file or use Roundcube Installer, please!

I've read the install page but couldn't find the answer.

Here's my install script:

#!/bin/bash
# A script to get my production server XXXXXX built
# configures hostname, timezone, installs LAMP, default website, perl, webmin 
#

It's *OK*. It's safe to ignore them.

Simply setting it to "Off" in /etc/php5/apache2/conf.d/suhosin.ini will fix it.

Thanks so much Zhang.  I found if I made that change before I install iRedMail the install went much better.  I also added

apt-get -y install postfix-policyd

before I installed iRedMail as well.
Thanks again smile
