Hello Josh,
Lets say I am a bit of a lamer 
But I am very happy using the previous versions of MIAB - Installed it last year (August) and it just keeps working.
Now I need to move the machine and that’s why I have to install it again.
After 8 installs lot of issues are still an obstacle while trying to
install the latest release on VPS (OpenVZ). I am not sure what is
relevant, but obvious errors can be easily experienced with the current
install methods:)
-
“curl -s https://mailinabox.email/setup.sh | sudo bash” is not
capable of making the complete install anymore - apparently well known
problem is “sha1sum: WARNING: 1 computed checksum did NOT match” -
Using “git clone https://github.com/mail-in-a-box/mailinabox.git and
bash setup/start.sh” seem to go quite further and actually finalizing
the installation, but with lots of consecutive errors ( in order of
appearance) :
- swapon: /swapfile: swapon failed: Operation not permitted
ERROR: Swap allocation failed
- Installing Munin (system monitoring)…
No module named ‘_cffi_backend’

- In the mail log can be found:
Couldn’t unlink “var/run/postgrey.pid” [Permission denied]
Couldn’t unlink “var/run/spamd.pid” [Permission denied]
-
… and lots of other errors
-
The machine can not resolve domains after the installation so it needs manual edits.
With that being said - I think it is much easier if there is a simple way how to install lets say version 0.19A or 0.21.
Can you help, please?
