We assume you use PHP version of WebMail Lite, please let us know if we're wrong.

In order to be able to run WebMail Lite PHP, you need to make sure that your system meets the Installation requirements.

To install Webmail Lite, you should create a folder under document root of your webspace and call it, say, "webmail". Then, copy all the files from web folder of webmail_php.zip archive into this folder.

There's also another folder needed for WebMail Lite PHP to work, it's called "data", its initial content is located in webmail_php.zip too. For security reasons, it should be placed outside of the area available for browsing.

To let WebMail Lite know where you placed the data folder to, you should specify path to the data folder in inc_settings_path.php file; you'll need to know your filesystem path. For example, if your document root path is /username/public_html/ and the data folder is located at /username/data/, inc_settings_path.php file should look like:

Code:
<?php
    $dataPath = '/username/data/';
?>


It is of critical importance to make sure that it is allowed for web server to write into the data folder. For Linux/Unix-based web servers, check section 5 of Installation Instructions for details.

That's it, WebMail Lite PHP is successfully installed, and you may start configuring it. To do it, open WebMail Admin Panel in your web browser:

http://yourserver.com/webmailphp/adminpanel/
Type "mailadm" as login and "12345" as default password. Once logged in, it's recommended to click WebMail Settings to change the default password and then click "Save" button to apply changes.

If you have difficulties while installing AfterLogic WebMail Lite, you may check our FAQ page.

Regards,
Igor

We suppose the valid path for the data folder of your WebMail Lite installation is not specified in inc_settings_path.php file yet. If that is the case, WebMail Lite login screen (http://yourserver.com/webmailphp/) would display a similar error message.

Please refer to the FAQ page for instructions on specifying a path to the data folder.

Please also make sure you have set sufficient permissions for the data folder, its subfolders and all the files located there, refer to this FAQ page for details.

Regards,
Igor
