[Dovecot] dovecot not staying up
I found one reference to this in the archives via google, but the assistance offered there did not resolve the problem. I am getting the following in the logs:
Apr 5 10:21:25 ziegchen dovecot: Dovecot starting up Apr 5 10:21:26 ziegchen dovecot: Auth process died too early - shutting down Apr 5 10:21:26 ziegchen dovecot: child 30091 (auth) returned error 127 Apr 5 10:21:26 ziegchen imap-login: fd_send(-1) failed: Broken pipe
This is with SSL on or off, I have tried building the source many different ways, but it behaves the same every time. I even copied the config from a working installation and tried it with that, but to no avail. Any insight would be appreciated.

What does your dovecot.conf look like?

What operating system are you using?
Thanks,

Thank you for your reply, however, I believe I have found the problem. The --with-pgsql option being enabled seems to require that a pgsql server be running on the system, which in the case of this server it was not. Perhaps a more useful error message, such as unable to connect to pgsql database, or something similar would be helpful in the future.
Thanks,
