[Bug] Snappymail fails with data folder permission error

[imyller]

Describe the bug

After HestiaCP 1.8.10 upgrade Snappymail fails to load with error:

[202] Data folder permissions error [is_readable]

Owner of both /var/lib/snappymail/data (symlink) and /etc/snappymail/data is www-data:www-data

v-add-sys-snappymail reports that the installation is latest and ok:

# v-add-sys-snappymail 
Error: Installed version (2.29.1) is equal to the available version (2.29.1)

Could this be caused by new security hardening from secure_php.sh?

Tell us how to replicate the bug

1. Upgrade to HestiaCP 1.8.10
2. Open webmail.domain.tld where Snappymail is selected as webmail client
3. Receive error '[202] Data folder permissions error [is_readable]' with HTTP/200 status

Operating system

To check whether disabled php functions are affecting snappymail, modify /etc/php/PHP_VERSION/fpm/php.ini

Example for PHP version 8.2:

sed -i 's/^disable_functions =.*/disable_functions = /' /etc/php/8.2/fpm/php.ini

We changed the owner to hestiamail instead of www-data due to the security issue

chown -R hestiamail:www-data /etc/snappymail/data should probally solve..

Seems also rainloop affected.

Just leaving this here to get the update/notifications, how to solve?
For now, I don't have clients on my server, so I plan to wait it out.

[jaapmarcus]

chown -R hestiamail:www-data /etc/snappymail/data

Will solve the issue .... Probally will test tomorrow...

First, I confirmed that Roundcube worked while Snappymail did not work.

Roundcube worked. Snappymail did not work.

chown -R hestiamail:www-data /etc/snappymail/data
Will solve the issue .... Probally will test tomorrow...

This did indeed fix the problem with Snappymail.

[imyller]

chown -R hestiamail:www-data /etc/snappymail/data

Fixing the owner solved the issue for Snappymail.

Owner of the data folder was www-data by default.

Snappymail installer script also needs to be adjusted.
