PLEASE HELP I am not a coding person… need some help please
Just did some updates and both Apache and Dovecot IMAP / POP3 Server
are off - For Apache - I clicked the small green triangle a few times to start on the dashboard but it just keeps saying loading … in the stats history
If email is not working, your first place to look for issues is found in either /var/log/mail.log (Debian/Ubuntu based), or /var/log/maillog (RedHat based)
Check what the log says right after you attempt to restart one or more of the services (Dovecot and/or Postfix)
This just a basic troubleshooting step, however most mail based issues can be discovered this way so it’s a great starting point.

@staffselection could you help please?
I have a copy of the Apache config files
and am not a coding person
Since the last updates Apache and Dovecot are not starting
PLEASE HELP
this is probably the problem. expired/wrong ssl certs could fail these services. from virtualmin check main domains certs and update just like @stefan1959 points out.
you could also run a apache2ctl -t
and paste the error.
Hi Dimistrist
Thaks for your help
I am not a coding person - so where exactly do I go and put this apache2ctl -t
in webmin / virtualmin
I can then copy the result
Please let me know
Thanks

go to “lets encrypt” tab in ssl settings, and issue a new certificate for domains/subdomains you want…
this certificate there is expired since 2020, and very very old. there have been some Lets Encrypt changes since, and you can’t use it anymore. so issue a new certificate and domain issues should be fixed.
if this domain is the main domain for virtualmin/server, you should also use it as default services certificate.
