Linux Evolution email TLS handshake error with Dovecot 2.3

I was getting the following error in Linux Evolution email client “Failed to get capabilities: Error performing TLS handshake: An unexpected TLS packet was received.” This error happened when Dovecot was upgraded from version 2.2 to version 2.3. My steps to correct the problem are posted on my blog at https://blog.chadchenault.com/2019/03/20/linux-evolution-email-broken-fails-with-dovecot-upgrade-to-version-2-3/

Nextcloud 12 Internal Server Error after Login

   

When I upgraded from owncloud 9 to Nextcloud 11, my web interface was broken and I could not login to Nextcloud with the web interface. I was able to sync files to the server.  I was recieving “Internal Server” errors and the web interface was broken and unusable. I documented the steps to fix the web interface over at my other blog https://blog.chadchenault.com/2017/12/30/nextcloud-12-internal-server-after-login/

How to Add a Custom Command to Webmin for your Server

I have complete instructions with pictures at https://blog.chadchenault.com/2015/07/09/how-to-add-a-custom-command-to-webmin-for-your-server/.


Short description.

Server is Mythubuntu 14.04 with Ampache, Apache, WordPress, Postfix and Dovecot email, mythtv, and Owncloud software. This is a post on how to run a script on your server using Webmin. When I first start up my server, I have a LUKS encrypted hard drive (backup) that has to be mounted. I written a script to automate this task. The private key to unlock this disk is stored in my encrypted home folder, so I must login first to open my encrypted home folder and then unlock the backup drive. The script to run is shown below and is called “mount backup disk on startup” and is run from the webmin server.
