Hello Marc

Sorry, I am jus back from vacation where I enjoyed the luxury o=
f a bit of deconnection

Regarding your issue, it is due to a mis-alligneme=
nt of the JPA agent=2E

It needs to be 3=2E2=2E0 for 3=2E8=2Ex=C2=A0

On Aug 16, 2025 10:37 PM, from Cryptearth <cryptearth@cry=
ptearth=2Ede=2EINVALID>Hello Marc,

sorry for being late=2E Usually I try t=
o give the least a look at least 
once a day=2E But I had other priorities =
over the past couple of months=2E

Well, given the error the first few issu=
es comming to my head:
- executing from the wrong directory
- permission is=
sue
- mistype error
- wrong java version

The doc says required Java13=2E I=
 run Java17=2E Maybe the Java version you 
use is just too old or too new=
=2E Try a version between Java13 and Java17 
- this should work fine=2E

I =
noticed the directory "/mail" - this sounds like a system directory=2E 
Doe=
s the user you run have the require permisisons? Note: As James uses 
ports=
 below 1024 you either have to start as root or you have to change 
the con=
fig to ports over 1024 and use your firewall to redirect the 
ports (in any=
 case the permissions have to be properly set)=2E


Also: Next time please =
be patient: This is community project with 
everyone giving thier own free =
time=2E If you don't receive a reply in a 
timely manner this usually means=
 that all of those who have read your 
message yet just can't help you (the=
re's no point in spamming the list 
with "yea, read it, but can't help") or=
 that those you can help you just 
hadn't the time to reply=2E

Hope this h=
elps=2E
Otherwise please reply with:
- version of java
- outut of "ls -alFh=
R /mail/apache-james-3=2E8/"

Greetings

Matt
