Hi,
I had successfully set up dovecot-1.0-test62 + ldap pass/user db, but now I'm encoutering a SIGSEV problem with a similar set up of a brand new dovecot-1.0-test65 installation.
The auth process is killed by a SIGSEV as reported in the error log file :
dovecot: Mar 30 17:06:59 Error: child 28291 (auth) killed with signal 11
To be precise, the problem occurs in the
"ldap_lookup_pass" function (auth/passdb-ldap.c)
just before loging the ldap request parameters (auth_request_log_debug) and to actually perform the search (db_ldap_search). The signal occurs on the call of t_strarray_join(attr_names, ",")
What I'm observing is that the "attr_names" array of the "passdb_ldap_conn" ldap connection doesn't seem to hold the right attributes : while in the test62 version it holded 'uid' and 'userPassword', it holds now 'uid' and 'homeDirectory'. As a matter of fact, the content of this array seem to change between the "preinit" and "init" passdb function and I'm not quite sure this is legal.
So my client (actually just a test through telnet) gets a 'NO Temporary authentication failure'.
Here's a gdb backtrace of the process :
Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
