[Dovecot] Dovecot deliver LDA problem
Hello folks, I was trying to set up Dovecot deliver LDA instead of Postfix default virtual LDA
In Postfix main.cf I specified: virtual_transport = dovecot dovecot_destination_recipient_limit = 1
In Postfix master.cf I entered: dovecot unix - n n - - pipe user=mailer flags=DRhu argv=/usr/local/mail/libexec/dovecot/deliver -f ${sender} -d ${recipient}
In Dovecot dovecot.conf I have the following entries: passdb sql { args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-sql.conf }
userdb prefetch { }
userdb sql { args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-sql.conf }
In Dovecot dovecot-sql.conf I have this: user_query = SELECT maildir as mail FROM dovecot_email_maps WHERE email = '%u' password_query = SELECT user, password, userdb_uid, userdb_gid, userdb_home, userdb_mail FROM dovecot_user_maps WHERE user = '%n'
After reloading postfix and restarting dovecot I'm getting this type of warnings in dovecot.err log:
May 04 10:43:10 deliver(some_address@some_domain.com): Error: userdb lookup: connect(/var/run/dovecot//auth-master) failed: No such file or directory
Could somebody please help me to resolve this mistery. What am I missing ether in configuration file or somewhere else?
Many thanks in advance,
Alex

Hello, I think you are missing the master authentication socket in yout dovecot.conf
Under Virtual users:
auth default { .. socket listen { # Note that we're setting a master socket. SMTP AUTH for Postfix and Exim uses client sockets. master { # Typically under base_dir/, if not the directory must be created. path = /var/run/dovecot/auth-master
# Auth master socket can be used to look up userdb information for
# given usernames. This probably isn't very sensitive information
# for most systems, but still try to restrict the socket access if possible.
mode = 0600
user = vmail # User running deliver
#group = mail # Or alternatively mode 0660 + deliver user in this group
}} .. }
Thanks for the hint.
I enabled 'socket listen' it in dovecot.conf as you pointed it out.
Now dovecot.err log has these error messages:
May 04 14:57:19 deliver(user1@some_domain.com): Error: User user1@some_domain.com is missing UID (set mail_uid) May 04 14:57:19 deliver(user2@some_domain.com): Error: User user2@some_domain.com is missing UID (set mail_uid) May 04 14:57:25 deliver(user3@some_domain.com): Error: User user3@some_domain.com is missing UID (set mail_uid)
I tried to set necessary mail_uid in dovecot-sql.conf in user_query:
user_query = SELECT maildir as mail, 51 as userdb_uid, 51 as userdb_gid, 51 as mail_uid FROM dovecot_email_maps WHERE email = '%u'
However it didn't help. I see the same messages in dovecot.err log
Could somebody clarify for me where do I have to specify mail_uid in this case?
Thanks in advance,
Alex
