Install mail server in ubuntu 20.04.2 (php 7.4)

carlita

I'm trying to set up my mail account. I installed Mail server but I get these errors

So I watched a video that recommended installing the "roundcube" via the one-click deployment app. But since I have the php version 7.4 I can not install it.

I don't know if I should roll back to php 7.3... or maybe look for some other way to install a mail server.
Any guidance will be greatly appreciated.

You can install several php version on aaPanel. Use 7.3 for Roundcube and others use 7.4 at the same time.

Dovecot is not installed on your server, what is the release version of the server you are using

roundcube installation requires PHP7.3 version, you can install it in the software store, it does not conflict with the PHP7.4 you are using now

Thanks a lot, both of you!
I installed php 7.3 and managed to install both dovecot and Roundcube. I set the mail server and a user. Now the problem is when I try to login. It says

I googled the issue, and apparently it has to do with the dovecot installation.

When I run "systemctl status dovecot.service" I get the following:

Any clue what the problem might be?
