[Dovecot] login process died too early
Hi ! I have dovecot working on a SUSE 9.0 machine. Everything works fine. When I boot, I get this message: snip............. Dovecot starting up Login process died too early-shutting down snap........... rcdovecot status : unused
a rcdovecot start starts dovecot. What can I do to start dovecot when I boot up ? Adrian Roye
I've run into this problem. It's trying to start a process that you don't have set up properly. If it looks for a password file that has a bad path, or it can load modules, like PAM, it will die as soon as it is spawned. Double check dovecot.conf.

Why is that error message being printed to screen instead of log file where it should have been? Have you changed log_file to /dev/stderr? Or does the init script not start "dovecot" but something else?

are you using rpms or did you build it from source? my guess would be ssl is enabled but certs are missing?
