[Dovecot] Beginner Help with a fatal error in a first Basic Install
dovecot@dovecot.org
Hello,
I have been doing my first BasicInstall of Dovecot, following the documentation for VirtualUsers, and piecing together suggestions from other on the list, and out on the web.
In dovecot.conf, I have added,
default_mail_env = maildir:/var/Dovecot/%d/Accounts/%1u/%u/Maildir:INDEX=/var/Dovecot/indexes/%d/%n auth default { mechanisms = plain user = pgnmail
passdb passwd-file { args = /etc/imap.passwd }
userdb static { args = static uid=99 gid=99 home=/var/Dovecot mail=maildir:%h/%d/Accounts/%1u/%u nice=10 } }
My User+Passwd DB file is
/etc/imap.passwd paulg:{PLAIN}testpass:99:99::/var/Dovecot/domain.com/Accounts/t/paulg:::
On Dovecot startup, my log shows, dovecot: Aug 18 07:10:40 Info: Dovecot v1.1.UNSTABLE starting up dovecot: Aug 18 07:10:42 Info: auth(default): passwd-file /etc/imamp.passwd: Read 1 users
When I telnet in, I see,
Connected to domain.com. Escape character is '^]'.
- OK [CAPABILITY IMAP4rev1 SASL-IR SORT THREAD=REFERENCES MULTIAPPEND UNSELECT LITERAL+ IDLE CHILDREN NAMESPACE LOGIN-REFERRALS STARTTLS AUTH=PLAIN] domain.com Dovecot IMAP4 ready
and when I login with,
x login testuser testpass
I see,

I'm concerned about the "//" in,
mail=maildir://Accounts/t/paulg
Is that correct?
And, of course, the,
dovecot: Aug 18 07:06:50 Error: IMAP(paulg): dyld: Library not loaded: /usr/local/ssl/lib/libssl.0.9.8.dylib
which I have no idea about.
Looking at the libraries linked into the "/usr/local/dovecot/libexec/dovecot/imap" executable, I see /usr/local/ssl/lib/libssl.0.9.8.dylib (compatibility version 0.9.8, current version 0.9.8) /usr/local/ssl/lib/libcrypto.0.9.8.dylib (compatibility version 0.9.8, current version 0.9.8) /usr/lib/libgcc_s.1.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0, current version 1.0.0) /usr/lib/libSystem.B.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0, current version 88.1.6)
And, seeing if "/usr/local/ssl/lib/libssl.0.9.8.dylib", exists, ls /usr/local/ssl/lib/libssl.0.9.8.dylib /usr/local/ssl/lib/libssl.0.9.8.dylib
Can someone help?
Thank you.
Paul
paul,
dovecot: Aug 18 07:06:50 Error: IMAP(paulg): dyld: Library not loaded: /usr/local/ssl/lib/libssl.0.9.8.dylib
i've had these same can't-find-libssl-even-though-i'm-staring-right-at-it probelms in dovecot.
after a little poking in code, i note that dovecot check first to get its ssl lib/include link info from pkg-config, and seems to get flustered by the presence of your own LDFLAGS/CPPFLAGS specification of ssl location.
that said, i've managed to work around it fairly simply.
do this:
install pkg-config (ver > 0.9; current release @ v0.21)
set your ENV var PKG_CONFIG_PATH = wherever you keep your pkg-config *.pc config files.
e.g., mine is:
% echo $PKG_CONFIG_PATH
/usr/local/X11R6/lib/pkgconfig/:/usr/X11R6/lib/pkgconfig/:/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig
now, make sure that pkgconfig can find YOUR openssl's .pc files, by either (a) adding their location to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH, or (b) cp'ing the files into it.
in my case, i did:
cp /usr/local/openssl/lib/pkgconfig/*.pc /usr/local/lib/pkgconfig/
now, check to be sure, that
grep Version /usr/local/lib/pkgconfig/openssl.pc
Version: 0.9.8b
grep prefix /usr/local/lib/pkgconfig/openssl.pc
prefix=/usr/local/openssland,
pkg-config --libs opensslreports:
-Wl,-search_paths_first -L/usr/local/openssl/lib -L/usr/local/lib -lssl-lcrypto -lz
or whatever is appropriate for your ssl install path.
finally, REMOVE ssl lib/include specs from your config ENV, namely:
--- LDFLAGS=" ... /install/path/to/openssl/lib -lssl -lcrypto ..."
--- CPPFLAGS+"... /install/path/to/openssl/include ..."gets changed to:
+++ LDFLAGS=" ... ..."
+++ CPPFLAGS+"... ..."now, 'make distclean', reconfig & rebuild ... and your "ssl not-found" problems should go away.
hth,
richard
