#6 Webmail doesn't work in cPanel 11.1

[Anonymous]

Our hostingprovider has upgraded his version of cPanel to version number 11. Now my cpanelproxy install stopped working. After logging in, it refers to an URL with portnumber 2095, so proxying fails...

It is important that this proxy system will work on the new cPanel 11.1 system! This will be soon the official release which are supported... could you fix it soon?

To clarify this ticket, as another party with this same problem,

It orginally goes to 80, then jumps over to port 2095 after requiring you to Auth again. The only way that I can figure this out, is not to login in, and find out hte URL for the client that your trying to use, and then use that THEN login.

I also have a problem now that my host has upgraded to cPanel 11.
When I use www.domainname.com.au/webmail everything works fine.
But when I use webmail.domainname.com.au it asks me for a username and password twice!
After I do it twice it then goes in and works fine.
I have to do this everytime I use the cpanel proxy and its annoying!

The problem is that cPanel 11 redirects the browser to /webmail/<skin_name> by using "Location:" header, and cPanel Proxy doesn't replace /webmail references in the header. Here is my quickfix:

Original code

while (true) {
$data = fgets($server, 10240); // FIXME: Can we optimize here with another buffer-size?
if (strlen(trim($data))==0) break;

// Fix hostname in redirects, cookies...
$data = str_replace(
array('localhost:2095', 'localhost:2082', 'localhost:2086'),
array($webmailhost, $cpanelhost, $whmhost),
$data);
if (substr($data, 0, 11) == 'Set-Cookie:') {
$data = str_replace(
'; domain=localhost',
'; domain='.$_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'],
$data);
}

header($data, false);
}

Fixed code

while (true) {
$data = fgets($server, 10240); // FIXME: Can we optimize here with another buffer-size?
if (strlen(trim($data))==0) break;

// Fix hostname in redirects, cookies...
$data = str_replace(
array('localhost:2095', 'localhost:2082', 'localhost:2086'),
array($webmailhost, $cpanelhost, $whmhost),
$data);
if (substr($data, 0, 11) == 'Set-Cookie:') {
$data = str_replace(
'; domain=localhost',
'; domain='.$_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'],
$data);
}

$data = preg_replace('_(\'|"|=|Location: )/webmail_', '$1/webmail_', $data); //<= This is the fix
header($data, false);
}

Hope it works for you...

Any idea when this will be resolved. Strangely accessing webmail via the button within cpanel does not create such problem. Now I would like to know how I can configure another mailbox to this icon or maybe even add icons.

A fix appears in the Cpanel forums:

Look at post #33.

The fix presented by jkormendi seems to work well.
