Hi,

I upgraded my MySQL installation on my FC2 machine from the 3.23 version to the newest 5.0 version. Now dovecot won't start. It gives me the error : 'dovecot dead but subsys locked'. I am using dovecot-0.99-14.

Here's the output of 'ldd /usr/libexec/dovecot/dovecot-auth:

    libcrypt.so.1 => /lib/libcrypt.so.1 (0x00a6d000)

    /lib/ld-linux.so.2 => /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x00acc000)

Do I need to downgrade back to the 3.23 version of MySQL for dovecot to work?

Thanks, Saurabh
