I want to upgrade the docevot-installation from v 1.0.5 to 2.1..7 Now I get the following executing doveconf -n -c /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf > /home/mail1/dovecot-2.conf
doveconf: Warning: Obsolete setting in /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf:217: add auth_ prefix to all settings inside auth {} and remove the auth {} section completely doveconf: Warning: Obsolete setting in /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf:219: passdb passwd-file {} has been replaced by passdb { driver=passwd-file } doveconf: Warning: Obsolete setting in /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf:222: userdb passwd-file {} has been replaced by userdb { driver=passwd-file }
The section at line 217 looks like this:
auth default { mechanisms = plain passdb passwd-file { args = /etc/dovecot/passwd } userdb passwd-file { args = /etc/dovecot/passwd }
How do I change it to fullfill the new needs?
And how do I handle line 217? add auth_ prefix to all settings inside auth {} and remove the auth {} section completely
what exactly are you not understanding here? this is a very clear message
I find the message very confusing. It says to do all settings inside auth {} and then to remove the auth {} section. With v1.0.5 I do have an auth default {} section and a section ## Authentication processes.
below a partly output from a working 2.1.7
auth_mechanisms = CRAM-MD5 DIGEST-MD5 APOP LOGIN PLAIN auth_worker_max_count = 100 auth_cache_size = 32768 auth_cache_ttl = 1800 auth_cache_negative_ttl = 1800 auth_username_chars = abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ01234567890.-_@% auth_username_translation = %@AaBbCcDdEeFfGgHhIiJjKkLlMmNnOoPpQqRrSsTtUuVvWwXxYyZz auth_debug = no auth_debug_passwords = no auth_verbose = no
Thank you! I found section ## Authentication processes but when I add
auth_passdb { args = /etc/dovecot/passwd driver = passwd-file } auth_userdb { args = /etc/dovecot/passwd driver = passwd-file }
I get an error: doveconf: Fatal: Error in configuration file /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf line 709: Unknown setting: auth_passdb
Where do I put the passdb and userdb sections?
