Hi,
I installed dovecot from dovecot-1.0-test51 with this configure line: ./configure --with-mysql --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc --localstatedir=/var --with-ssldir=/etc/ssl --with-ssl=openssl
When I add this to my dovecot.conf: passdb = mysql /etc/dovecot-mysql.conf
I get this in /var/log/maillog when I run "dovecot -c /etc/dovecot.conf":
Oct 21 13:59:16 one dovecot: Dovecot v1.0-test51 starting up Oct 21 13:59:17 one dovecot: Auth process died too early - shutting down Oct 21 13:59:17 one dovecot: auth(default): Unknown userdb type 'mysql' Oct 21 13:59:17 one dovecot: child 13203 (auth) returned error 89
After my ./configure was complete it was also noted that mysql would be built into dovecot as passwd and userdb, so MySQL should be in there.
Any ideas? I use MySQL 4.0.17.
Thanks
Tom Sommer
