[Dovecot] Fatal: Running as root isn't permitted
Hi
I am running Dovecot 1.1RC4, built from the source packages at the debian repositories (http://xi.rename-it.nl/debian/). When a message is delivered through the LDA, i get this error:
deliver(******@*****): May 02 14:43:28 Fatal: Running as root isn't permitted
These are my config files:
master.cf:
======================================= # Dovecot dovecot unix - n n - - pipe flags=DRhu user=dovecot:mail argv=/usr/lib/dovecot/deliver -d $recipient
dovecot.conf
======================================= protocols = imap pop3 listen = 0.0.0.0 login_greeting = Servidor de correo para preparado. disable_plaintext_auth = no log_path = /var/log/dovecot.log info_log_path = /var/log/dovecot-info.log mail_uid = mailuser mail_gid = mailgroup

}
client {

}
}}
dovecot-ldap.conf
======================================= hosts = 127.0.0.1 auth_bind = yes ldap_version = 3 base = dc=*******,dc=local scope = subtree user_attrs = =home=/var/vmail/%d/%n,mailuserquota=quota=maildir:storage,=mail=maildir:/var/vmail/%d/%n/Maildir user_filter = (&(objectClass=mailAccount)(mail=%u)(mailenable=OK)) pass_attrs = mail=user,userPassword=password pass_filter = (&(objectClass=mailAccount)(mail=%u)(mailenable=OK)) default_pass_scheme = CRYPT
The folder /var/vmail has these permissions:
pdc-server:~# ls -la /var/vmail/ total 16 drwxrwx--- 3 mailuser mailgroup 4096 2008-05-02 14:34 . drwxr-xr-x 16 root root 4096 2008-05-02 14:14 ..
Any idea? Thanks in advance.
Well
I solved it. Altough "mail_uid = mailuser" is defined in dovecot.conf, i must also return an "uid" from the ldap query. Changing:
user_attrs = =home=/var/vmail/%d/%n,mailuserquota=quota=maildir:storage,=mail=maildir:/var/vmail/%d/%n/Maildir
To:
user_attrs = =home=/var/vmail/%d/%n,=uid=mailuser,mailuserquota=quota=maildir:storage,=mail=maildir:/var/vmail/%d/%n/Maildir u
solved the problem. Hope this could be helpful for someone.

It was a bug, fixed: http://hg.dovecot.org/dovecot-1.1/rev/1b15881ed93b

I have followed these steps:
[[Included deb-src http://xi.rename-it.nl/debian/ testing-auto main in sources.list]] # apt-get install fakeroot dpkg-dev build-essential # apt-get source dovecot # cd dovecot-1.1.rc4 # apt-get build-dep dovecot # dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot -b
So with the previous version, i had compiled packages in parent folder.
I don't know much about compiling, so too many questions. How can i solve this error?
NB: Could you add in the source packages of this repository the plugins por antispam and autocreate? Thanks.
