Hello,
I've compiled nightly CVS snapshot and set it up to work with MySQL database: [...] auth default { mechanisms = plain user = root
passdb sql {
args = /usr/local/dovecot/etc/sql.conf
}
userdb sql {
args = /usr/local/dovecot/etc/sql.conf
}}
sql.conf contains next line: connect = host=localhost dbname=exim user=exim password=xxx
After the start dovecot cannot connect to MySQL database: Oct 30 15:44:15 crow dovecot: Dovecot v1.0.alpha4 starting up Oct 30 15:44:17 crow dovecot: auth-worker(default): mysql: Connect failed to localhost (exim): Access denied for user 'exim'@'localhost' (using password: YES) - waiting for 1 seconds before retry Oct 30 15:44:17 crow dovecot: auth-worker(default): mysql: Connect failed to localhost (exim): Access denied for user 'exim'@'localhost' (using password: YES) - waiting for 5 seconds before retry
But I can connect with the same password: # mysql -u exim -p exim Enter password: Reading table information for completion of table and column names You can turn off this feature to get a quicker startup with -A
Welcome to the MySQL monitor. Commands end with ; or \g. Your MySQL connection id is 2227 to server version: 4.1.15
Type 'help;' or '\h' for help. Type '\c' to clear the buffer.
mysql> show tables; +----------------+ | Tables_in_exim | +----------------+ | aliases | | domains | | users | +----------------+ 3 rows in set (0.00 sec)

Any ideas? Thanks in advance, Alexander.
