I set mail_drop_priv_before_exec = yes, and I did
ulimit -c unlimitedandecho "/tmp/core" > /proc/sys/kernel/core_patternbefore starting dovecot, but I still didn't get a core dump anywhere. Seems like the home directory is okay. No core file. Even looked everywhere withlocateafterupdatedb. Is this a reason I can say that CentOS sucks too much to use in production? ;-)Thousands (if not hundreds of thousands) of people are using CentOS in production. What makes you think it is CentOS? Just because you are trying to use a poorly (maybe inadequately is a better word) written application like openwebmail doesn't fault the OS.
This particular facet of the problem doesn't have anything to do with openwebmail. Do you know how to get core files to work for dovecot under CentOS 5.2? Because it's not working according to the dovecot instructions. If you happen to have any useful information, thank you.
