Description

This is a guide on setting up Mailgraph on FreeBSD 9.

Prepare the Environment¶

Make sure the system is up date:
```
pkg update && pkg upgrade
```

Edit permissions of mail log so Mailgraph can read it:
```
chmod 0644 /var/log/maillog
```

Install Mailgraph¶

Install mailgraph:
```
pkg install mailgraph
```

Start and enable mailgraph at boot:

echo 'mailgraph_enable="YES"' >> /etc/rc.conf
service mailgraph start

Install Nginx¶

Install nginx and fcgiwrap:
```
pkg install nginx fcgiwrap
```

Start and enable fcgiwrap at boot:

echo 'fcgiwrap_enable="YES"' >> /etc/rc.conf
echo 'fcgiwrap_profiles="main"' >> /etc/rc.conf
echo 'fcgiwrap_main_socket="unix:/tmp/fcgiwrap.sock"' >> /etc/rc.conf
echo 'fcgiwrap_main_user="www"' >> /etc/rc.conf
service fcgiwrap start

Mailgraph Website¶

Create a directory for the web application:

mkdir -p /usr/local/www/mailgraph.example.com

And copy the mailgraph files to the mailgraph web folder:

cp /usr/local/www/cgi-bin/mailgraph.cgi /usr/local/www/mailgraph.example.com/
cp -r /usr/local/www/data/mailgraph /usr/local/www/mailgraph.example.com/

Add a mailgraph.example.com server block:

vi /usr/local/etc/nginx/conf.d/mailgraph.example.com.conf

Add the following:

upstream fcgiwrap {
   server unix:/tmp/fcgiwrap.sock;
}

server {
    listen       80;
    server_name  cgi-app.example.com;
    root         /usr/local/www/mailgraph.example.com;
    access_log   /var/log/mailgraph.example.com-access.log;
    error_log    /var/log/mailgraph.example.com-error.log;

    location / {
        index mailgraph.cgi;
        try_files $uri $uri/ =404;
    }

    location ~ \.cgi$ {
        include /usr/local/etc/nginx/fastcgi_params;
        fastcgi_index mailgraph.cgi;
        fastcgi_pass fcgiwrap;
        fastcgi_param  SCRIPT_FILENAME  $document_root$fastcgi_script_name;
    }
}
