I am running redhat 9.0. I have been using uw-imap for some time now and wanted to try our dovecot. After installing dovecot and trying to start it up I am getting an error

Starting IMAP daemon (dovecot): Fatal: Can't use SSL certificate /usr/share/ssl/certs/dovecot.pem: No such file or directory

My guess is that you don't have an SSL certificate at /usr/share/ssl/certs/dovecot.pem.

Thanks for trying to help me.

I did not see anywhere on dovecotts website or in the insall file where it said that I needed to create these certificates. I tried dovecot on one of my fedora machines with no problems. Could you please be kind enough to tell me how to create a ssl certificate for dovecot?

Thanks, AD
