[Dovecot] Dovecot+PostfixAdmin+PostgreSQL on FreeBSD 7
Hi dear All,
Currently I'm configuring Dovecot+PostfixAdmin+PostgreSQL on FreeBSD 7 Stable and using Dovecot v1.1.3. I hope I've configured everything. But when I run /usr/local/etc/rc.d/dovecot start then dovecot doesn't seems to running. /var/log/maillog is only showing following.

Here is my current dovecot configuration. Please someone help me. What did I do wrong and what is the problem is? Thank you.

Also forgot to tell additional info. The FreeBSD 7 stable is actually jail. Is someone faced with this issue running dovecot on jail? Thank you.

Start Dovecot using "dovecot -F". If it doesn't exit, then it's running. If it does exit, what does it say?
Hi dear, Timo
When I execute dovecot -F then it doesn't exiting. During this time when try to telnet 110 port it shows
Escape character is '^]'. +OK Dovecot ready. ^] telnet> quit
Also i've set log and log_info path. In dovecot_info.log it's showing:
dovecot: 2008-10-23 01:23:39 Info: Dovecot v1.1.3 starting up dovecot: 2008-10-23 01:23:39 Info: auth(default): pgsql: Connected to postfix dovecot: 2008-10-23 01:25:09 Info: pop3-login: Disconnected (no auth attempts): rip=x.x.x.x, lip=x.x.x.x, secured dovecot: 2008-10-23 01:25:27 Info: imap-login: Disconnected (no auth attempts): rip=x.x.x.x, lip=x.x.x.x, secured dovecot: 2008-10-23 01:25:51 Info: pop3-login: Disconnected (no auth attempts): rip=x.x.x.x, lip=x.x.x.x, secured
What does it mean? How can I run dovecot just like common way /usr/local/etc/rc.d/dovecot start? When I execute that command it doesn't start. Thank you.

OK, so Dovecot works.

The rc.d/dovecot script is broken then. I don't run FreeBSD so I don't really know why. I'd suggest trying to figure out what it does differently than simply running "dovecot" does.

I running Dovecot 1.1.3 on FreeBSD-7.0-p5 with Exim without any problem. All from ports.
Just for information what it is not a FreeBSD related problem.

Hi,
Are you sure there is smething like 'dovecot_enable="YES"' in /etc/rc.conf ? tip: try
/usr/local/etc/rc.d/dovecot rcvar
Hope this helps
