Hi,
I'm using dovecot 1.0.5-1 (debian stable) and I'm trying to build a virtual host machine with ldap.
In my dovecot-ldap.conf thats what I have:
uris = ldap://<ldapserver>/ dn = cn=Manager, dc=domain, dc=com, dc=br dnpass = <ultra secret passwd> sasl_bind = no tls = no ldap_version = 3 base = ou=Users, dc=domain, dc=com, dc=br deref = never scope = subtree user_attrs = homeDirectory=homeDirectory user_filter = (&(mail=%u)) pass_attrs = mail=user,userPassword=password pass_filter = (&(mail=%u)) default_pass_scheme = CRYPT user_global_uid = 107 user_global_gid = 109
But I don't want to read homeDirectory from LDAP, so I have the following in dovecot.conf mail_location = maildir:/var/virtual/%d/%n/
The question is when I try to log into imap I receive the following error:
dovecot: 2008-01-03 10:03:55 Error: IMAP(magalhaes@fmcs.com.br): mkdir(/HOME_DIRECTORY_USED_BUT_NOT_GIVEN_BY_USERDB/expunged/cur) failed: Permission denied dovecot: 2008-01-03 10:03:55 Error: IMAP(magalhaes@fmcs.com.br): mkdir(/HOME_DIRECTORY_USED_BUT_NOT_GIVEN_BY_USERDB/deleted/cur) failed: Permission denied dovecot: 2008-01-03 10:03:55 Error: IMAP(magalhaes@fmcs.com.br): mkdir(/HOME_DIRECTORY_USED_BUT_NOT_GIVEN_BY_USERDB/deleted/expunged/cur) failed: Permission denied
(I'm using lazy_expunge too)
I can log in and etc, but this is strange for me, why do I receive this Permission denied message?
The directory /var/virtual/<domain>/<user>/ is owned by uid 107 and gid 109, so, i believe thats ok.
My homedir in ldap is /home/samba/<user> , so I changed tried to chown 107:109 too but I still get this error.
Is there a way for me to know what is the full path that dovecot is trying to use? HOME_DIRECTORY_USED_BUT_NOT_GIVEN_BY_USERDB is no helping me too much!
Oh, I imagine that my lazy_expunge conf may be helpfull:
namespace private { prefix = .EXPUNGED/ separator = / location = maildir:~/expunged hidden = yes } namespace private { prefix = .DELETED/ separator = / location = maildir:~/deleted hidden = yes } namespace private { prefix = .DELETED/.EXPUNGED/ separator = / location = maildir:~/deleted/expunged hidden = yes }
Thanks for all!
