Hi, I try to get expire working, with the BDB backend and mbox mailboxes.
If I try to invoke the expire-tool like
/usr/local/sbin/dovecot --exec-mail ext /usr/local/libexec/dovecot/expire-tool --test
I get
[root@m ~]# /usr/local/sbin/dovecot --exec-mail ext /usr/local/libexec/dovecot/expire-tool --test Error: read(/var/run/dovecot/dict-server) failed: Remote disconnected
Hmm. I searched for hints but could not find a related discussion or problem. Here are the relavant config parts:
dict { expire = db:/var/lib/dovecot/expire.db }
plugin { # expire plugin expire_dict = proxy::expire expire = backup 7 spam 30 # If you have a non-default path to auth-master, set also: auth_socket_path = /var/run/dovecot/auth-master }
Any ideas? Has anybody got this working ? The file /var/lib/dovecot/expire.db doas not exit even though I restarted DC quite a while ago.
Regards, Jakob
