Hi,

This morning I portupgraded dovecot 0.99.14 to 1.0.a3 on two of my FreeBSD servers and found that the new dovecot refused to start on FreeBSD 5.21 server. However, it works ok on FreeBSD 5.4. Please help me with the FreeBSD 5.21 one.

#uname -a FreeBSD fileserver.xxx.local 5.2.1-RELEASE-p14 FreeBSD 5.2.1-RELEASE- p14 #3: Sun Aug 7 13:24:38 CST 2005 xxx@xxx.xxx.com:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GATEWAY i386

## /etc/rc.conf dovecot_enable="YES"

## /usr/local/etc/dovecot.conf ssl_disable = yes (I only changed the above line in dovecot.conf.sample.)

## ports fileserver# make clean ===> Cleaning for libiconv-1.9.2_1 ===> Cleaning for libtool-1.5.20 ===> Cleaning for perl-5.8.7 ===> Cleaning for cyrus-sasl-2.1.21 ===> Cleaning for openssl-0.9.8_1 ===> Cleaning for dovecot-1.0.a3

## error messages Oct 9 11:50:01 fileserver dovecot: Dovecot v1.0.alpha3 starting up Oct 9 11:50:02 fileserver dovecot: Login process died too early - shutting down Oct 9 11:50:02 fileserver dovecot: child 42837 (login) returned error 89 Oct 9 11:50:02 fileserver dovecot: child 42836 (login) returned error 89 Oct 9 11:50:02 fileserver dovecot: child 42838 (login) returned error 89 Oct 9 11:50:02 fileserver dovecot: child 42835 (auth) returned error 89

Thanks in advance for your help.
