Roxanne,
If a domain exists either in the MariaDB (vpopmail sql db) or in the
directory structure /home/vpomail/domains you're going to have a problem.
1) If possible recreate the vpopmail database (empty).
2) Remove all domains under /home/vpopmail/domains
3) Remove any aliases /var/qmail/alias
4) Remove all domain entries /var/qmail/control and bring back to stock
(you could most efficiently do this by removing and reinstalling qmail).
After you have everything clean make sure qmail is running and start
adding domains and domain aliases from a clean slate.
Sometimes when I import the vpopmail database I have to re-enter the
password (vpasswd), usually for the postmaster account alone, to be able
to login to qmailadmin.

As mentioned in my prior message, I am in the process of building a CentOS 7

the relevant packages installed, I thought this would just be a case of
plodding through the detail work of bringing in the setups and data from the
old toaster to the new one. But I’ve run into a problem.
I made the decision to create the vpopmail database over from scratch, because
I didn’t want to go through the research of trying to figure out what had
changed over the many versions that have passed since I built that old server.
I did copy over the old vpopmail database as vpopmailold, so that I could
follow myself along and make sure I didn’t miss anything.
Every time I try to set up an alias domain, I get the error "Error: Both
domains already exist, unable to create alias.”
sudo /home/vpopmail/bin/vaddaliasdomain golem-computing.com golem-computing.net
Most concerning right now, however is that although I have my passwords correct
- I can log in through squirrelmail - I cannot log in to qmailadmin.
Any help or advice would be appreciated.
