- SOLUTION:

- Please change './etc/dbm.conf' from
- dbm_ext .db
- dbmopen_ext none
- dbmopen_haslock no
- to

- And execute './openwebmail-tool.pl --init' again!
- ps: If you are running openwebmail in persistent mode,

- # vi etc/dbm.conf
- dbm_ext .db
- dbmopen_ext .db
- dbmopen_haslock yes
- :wq (save and quit)
