Originally created by @rominf on GitHub (Jun 10, 2014).
Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/modoboa/modoboa/issues/564

When I launched manage.py handle_mailbox_operations from vmail (mailboxes owner) I got error:

OperationalError: FATAL:  role "vmail" does not exist

I fixed it by creating vmail user and granting all permissions to database modoboa (I don't know how much permission should I give).

Before creating this role, have you checked if the vmail system user has read access to the settings.py file ?

Yes, I gave read permissions with setfacl and opened settings.py from vmail user to be sure.

And have you tried using the way I posted in #563 ?

vmail@hostname:/etc/dovecot> /opt/modoboa/bin/python /srv/www/mail/manage.py handle_mailbox_operations
OperationalError: FATAL:  role "vmail" does not exist

@rominf I still don't understand why you needed to create this role. Any command executed through manage.py uses the credentials configured in the settings.py file. What is/was the name of the user you configured ?

Thank you for answer, @tonioo. That was 2 years ago, I don't remember the details. I think this issue is irrelevant.
