Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/modoboa/modoboa/issues/1624

Modoboa: Version not sure (1 Month old installation)
installer used: Yes
Webserver: Nginx

Current behavior

In /var/log/nginx mail.domain.ch-error.log

2018/11/24 00:14:40 [error] 508#508: *698 upstream timed out (110: Connection timed out) while reading response header from upstream, client: <192.X.X.X>, server: mail.Domain.ch, request: "GET /dashboard/ HTTP/1.1", upstream: "uwsgi://unix:/run/uwsgi/app/modoboa_instance/socket", host: "mail.Domain.ch", referrer: "https://mail.Domain.ch/accounts/login/?next=/"

If the password is wrong we get a "Username and Password do not match"
(Keep in mind, it works with users...)

It did work for a Month, and suddenly stopped working without configuration changes

Mails do get delivered still and can be accessed with a mail client

@Dogy007 Could you please set DEBUG to True inside settings.py, reload uwsgi and retry? You should see a more verbose output.
