I get the success page when going to webmail.domain dot com instead of the roundcube login page. I tried using
v-change-sys-webmail admin webmail.domain dot com (replace dot com with .com)
as well as…
v-change-sys-webmail admin www.domain.com
both end up with this error message:
Error: invalid domain format :: error:webmail.domain.com (replaced with domain for privacy)
Any help would be appreciated!!! This is on my personal bare metal, Debian 12, everything up to date, postgresql instead of mariaDB. If there is another distro that would be better to install hestia on I will gladly switch. I have done the full stack on my own (everything Hestia installs and configures) and the only thing on that I couldnt get working right was webmail so this has been annoying me either way I go about it. Hestia installer or diy!!!
Edit: email is working and so when I send an email to the admin@domain dot com I created and have it forwareded to my main email, it goes through just fine.
Edit2: I use a domain manager and have copied the dns settings over to it what the webmail shows in hestia cp

Syntax is supposed to be:
Not v-change-sys-webmail admin www.domain.com
When I run that command I get a lot of permission denied errors. I switched to root and ran the command and I get the same errors as I initially posted
redacted@redacted:/usr/local/hestia$ v-change-sys-webmail webmail
/usr/local/hestia/func/main.sh: line 1575: /usr/local/hestia/conf/hestia.conf: Permission denied

You need to run it as root …
You can’t run it as the user will have a look later today…
I did run it as root as well and got the same error I initially posted about
root@redacted:~# v-change-sys-webmail webmail
Error: invalid domain format :: error:
Also, hestiamail user does exist
root@redacted:~# groups hestiamail
Hello, same story, Ubuntu 22.04
v-rebuild-users
Error: user hestiamail doesn't exist
Did you manage to solve this somehow and why is this happening? I added Nginx templates and wanted to rebuild the users and got this error.
No I never resolved the issue. I also had issues with Laravel due to using postgresql instead of mariadb so I ended up going back to doing the full stack on my own. I have everything working except roundcube but I realized I dont need users to have access to an email webclient, I just needed the email part for sending links for password resets and the like.

Edit /etc/passwd and remove the mail address for user hestiamail so you will get something like this:
Example:
Before:
hestiamail:x:1011:1011:[email protected] :/home/hestiamail:/bin/sh
After:
hestiamail:x:1011:1011::/home/hestiamail:/bin/sh

You are right, everything worked out, the reassembly of users was successful. Thanks a lot!
