[Dovecot] file permissions help!
Hi all!
Ran into a problem and hopefully i can get some help.
OK here is my set up:
- dovecot-0.99.10.4 + MySQL patch.
- Redhat 9
The authentication part works just fine. It gives me the following entry in the log file:
imap-login: "Apr 12 22:15:10 "Info: Login: USER@DOMAIN.com [127.0.0.1]
But there is a problem with dovecot reading the mbox file (I think). In the error file I get this entry:
imap(USER@DOMAIN.com): "Apr 12 22:15:10 "Fatal: Failed to create storage with data: /export/htdocs/DOMAIN.com/mail/USER dovecot: "Apr 12 22:15:11 "Error: child 18613 (imap) returned error 89
Of course the user and domain info was changed.
I am out of ideas but thats not to say its something easy or something I completely looked over.
This is how I compiled dovecot:
CPPFLAGS="-I/usr/local/mysql/include/mysql -DPASSDB_MYSQL -DUSERDB_MYSQL"
LDFLAGS="-L/usr/local/mysql/lib/mysql/ -lmysqlclient"
./configure
--prefix=/usr/local/imapd
--disable-ipv6
--without-pop3d
--without-ssl
--with-storages=mbox
--enable-debug
thanks in advance.

This means Dovecot wasn't able to figure out what to do with that given default_mail_env. It didn't know if it was maildir, mbox or what. So the fix is to add "mbox:" to beginning of default_mail_env, ie.:
default_mail_env = mbox:/export/htdocs/...
