[Dovecot] Error: socket() failed: Protocol not supported ERROR in dovecot-1.0.beta9
I'm trying to get IMAPS working with dovecot-1.0.beta9. I'm building it on a Solaris 10 box, with openssl-0.9.8b installed. Here is the results of my ./configure:
Install prefix ...................... : /usr/local/dovecot-1.0.beta9 File offsets ........................ : 64bit I/O loop method ..................... : poll File change notification method ..... : none Building with SSL support ........... : yes (OpenSSL) Building with IPv6 support .......... : yes Building with pop3 server ........... : yes Building with GSSAPI support ........ : no Building with user database modules . : static prefetch passwd passwd-file checkpassword (modules) Building with password lookup modules : passwd passwd-file shadow pam checkpassword (modules) Building with SQL drivers ............:
I've attached a copy of my dovecot.conf file (striped of comments).
When I try running dovecot I get the following error:
Error: socket() failed: Protocol not supported
Fatal: listen(993) failed: Protocol not supported
When I change ssl_disable = no to ssl_disable = yes, everything works.
Anyone have any suggestions?
Cheers Jeff

Same thing's happening to me:

I had the same issue, and adding:
ssl_listen = *:993
to dovecot.conf solved it for me. This wasn't necessary in 1.0b7, but appears to be necessary in 1.0b8 and above. I didn't do to much digging to see what the root cause was, but the above line solved the problem for me!
ScottEI tried both solutions that were recommended: i. to compile with the --disable-ipv6 tag set. ii. to insert ssl_listen = *:993 into the dovecot.conf file.
Using --disable-ipv6 didn't seem to fix it, however the second suggestion DID WORK for me. Thanks very much.
A third suggestion was made to run dovecot in strace. I haven't done this yet, but may, once I am finished upgrading my email service.

I've already received a patch to fix this problem, so no need for anyone to debug it more.
