Hi,
I am trying this way(mailinglist), as I cant find good 'support'/howto/tutorials on the website.
I am running Fedora Core II, using postfix with mysql, and I want to use dovecot as imap server.
Now I installed Dovecot using dag wieers SRPM, I compiled it with mysql, pgsql;
%configure \
--with-ssl="openssl" \
--with-ssldir="%{_datadir}/ssl" \
--with-ldap \
--with-pgsql \
--with-mysql \
--with-cyrus-sasl2 \
--with-rawlog%{__make} %{?_smp_mflags}
After compiling it, I installed the rpm. No problem at all.
I configure the dovecot.conf like this;
#auth = plain digest-md5
#auth_methods = plain digest-md5
auth_userdb = mysql /etc/dovecot-mysql.conf
auth_passdb = mysql /etc/dovecot-mysql.conf
default_mail_env = maildir:/home/mail/virtual/%d/%n
# Use this logfile instead of syslog(). /dev/stderr can be used if you want to
# use stderr for logging (ONLY /dev/stderr - otherwise it is closed).
log_path = /tmp/dovecot/log1
# For informational messages, use this logfile instead of the default
info_log_path = /tmp/dovecot/log2
Then I try run it:
[root@octa SPECS]# cat /tmp/dovecot/log1
dovecot-auth: Aug 04 10:48:29 Fatal: Unknown userdb type 'mysql'
dovecot: Aug 04 10:48:29 Error: Auth process died too early - shutting down

imap-login: Aug 04 11:04:39 Fatal: fd_send(-1) failed: Broken pipe
[root@octalys SPECS]# cat /tmp/dovecot/log2
dovecot: Aug 04 10:48:28 Info: Dovecot starting up
dovecot: Aug 04 11:04:38 Info: Dovecot starting up
[root@octalys SPECS]#
Can anyone tell me whats wrong please ?
Thank you in advance,
Alex
