[Dovecot] postfix, dovecot, sasl deliver error
Hi,
I am receiving an error when trying to send mail. I am using FreeBSD 6 and dovecot 1.0.alpha5 and postfix 2.3-20051223 which includes the dovecot sasl patch.
I am getting:
Dec 26 17:26:45 example postfix/pipe[612]: DC90D5C30: to=<tep@example.com>, relay=dovecot, delay=14, delays=14/0.05/0/0.08, dsn=4.3.0, status=deferred (temporary failure. Command output: Error: net_connect(/var/run/dovecot/auth-master) failed: Permission denied )
This is from dovecot.conf:
auth default_with_listener { mechanisms = plain passdb passwd-file { args = /usr/local/etc/dovecot/passwd } userdb passwd-file { args = /usr/local/etc/dovecot/users }
socket listen { master { path = /var/run/dovecot/auth-master
# WARNING: Giving untrusted users access to master socket may be a
# security risk, don't give too wide permissions to it!
mode = 0666# Default user/group is the one who started dovecot-auth (root)
user = virtual
group = virtual
}
client {
path = /var/spool/postfix/private/auth
mode = 0666
}} }
and from dovecot-deliver.conf:
UNIX socket path to master authentication server to find users.
auth_socket_path = /var/run/dovecot/auth-master
From postfix master.cf:

This defaults to /var/run/dovecot-auth-master nowadays
UNIX socket path to master authentication server to find users.
auth_socket_path = /var/run/dovecot/auth-master
Then this isn't needed, and also then it works. :) The problem is that only root has access to /var/run/dovecot directory.

I just realized that I didn't reply to the mailing list...
Timo,
Thanks for the pointer... I have been configuring this this everywhich way but loose :)
I made the changes and now I have nothing in any of my configs that point to /var/run/dovecot/auth-master and I still get the same error, even after rebooting the server.

I have read the wiki and searched the mail archives with no luck yet. Could it be something in the postfix build?
Thanks again,
Tracy

Ok, I am convinced that this has to be something in the FreeBSD build of dovecot or postfix. I just reinstalled everything (including the OS) from scratch and I get the exact same error:
Dec 28 14:56:16 example postfix/pipe[840]: 5DF185C3E: to=<tep@example.com>, relay=dovecot, delay=24, delays=24/0.05/0/0.07, dsn=4.3.0, status=deferred (temporary failure. Command output: Error: net_connect(/var/run/dovecot/auth-master) failed: Permission denied )
Just for good measure, I looked in my config files yet again for the path "/var/run/dovecot/auth-master" and it is nowhere to be found. The only thing I have that is even close is the default "/var/run/dovecot-auth-master".
Any ideas? Or am I just loosing it :)

If it's not in any config files, it's in dovecot-lda's sources as the default path. I've already changed the default to /var/run/dovecot-auth-master so maybe you have some older sources? How do you install it?

Ahhh... that could be my problem. I just compiled dovecot that comes with FreeBSD, I didn't know I had to d/l dovecot-lda in addition to dovecot.

Oh. I keep forgetting there's also a deliver program included in Dovecot package. I should start merging it with dovecot-lda..

Timo,
What is configure looking for, is that where I have dovecot installed or is that the dovecot sources (which is what it looks like to me).
./configure --with-dovecot=../dovecot
Thanks for your patience.

Hmm. I'll go and change that so it doesn't even mention the "wrong way"
anymore..
