Hi

Did you change something on your machine? This means a nonexistent interface was requested or the requested address was not local.

Can you go in to the mwes.db file in \opt\mwes (it's an SQLite database), configure table and change the web hostname to blank then it will bind to all interfaces.

Thank you very much.
After clear Web host name, the web interface works.
But in Tab "Emails" there are only "ALL EMAILS" and "QUARANTINED". There is no "Grey Listed Email". But it is empty in "ALL EMAILS" or "QUARANTINED".
Please help.

Can you do the system check and make sure everything is working - Go to Settings>>Setup>>Check

SMTP Failed The check noticed you are not running MWES on 192.168.0.68 port 25. Possible reason.
Not enough privileges binding to this port. Please fix this then restart MWES

How to fix it?

Thanks for the help.

That error means that MWES can't bind to 25 - in a Windows server, it’s either because something else is bound to it (i.e.: exchange hasn’t been removed/stopped from the interface), or you’re not running the MWES service as a privileged enough user (Administrator or Domain Administrator).

If MWES can't bind to port 25 - that either means permissions are not correct, or something else is binding to port 25, so MWES can't.

Start by checking the windows logs for permission errors, then look to see what services are running on port 25 currently.

Thank you for responding.

Sorry, yes you are using Linux. Do you mean it's showing empty in the 'ALL EMAILS' screen?
Can you update to this version, it has quite a few fixes. http://cdn.firetrust.com/downloads/mwes ... 014.tar.gz although the empty screen is odd. If this doesn't fix it, can you send me the full logs to nick.bolton@firetrust.com

Thank you.
The new version is better. It now passed all the "SYSTEM CHECK" after installed it. But the "ALL EMAIL" is still empty. Then I went back to do the "SYSTEM CHECK" , smtp failed again.
I noticed , even I start mwesd as root, but mwes still run as user "mwes" :

mwes:/home/eta/Downloads/mwes64-3014 # /etc/init.d/mwesd start
Starting Mailwasher Enterprise Server: mwes started...

done
mwes:/home/eta/Downloads/mwes64-3014 # ps -ef|grep mw

I will send log file to your email. Please help.

You also need to install MWES as root.

Yes， I did install MWES as root.

This happened after the old version MWES' web interface not working. I then upgraded it to 3.0.0.10. and copied mwes.db to the new version. Does the database file compatible with each other? How to check the old MWES' version without running it?

Here's the problem.

The mwes.db (database file) appears to be set to read only, this will cause problems..
mwes needs full access to this file, it stores all quarantine emails and stats.
See mwes.db in \opt\mwes

And yes, the database file is compatible, it upgrades itself.

I changed its permission. and restarted MWES. But "ALL EMAIL" is still empty.

I sent the new log file to you. please check it.

Please help.

Still the same problem with the readonly database as you can see in the logs
