Your original post says it does. If you receive another error message,
please add it to your problem report. Also, please try to start dovecot
from the commandline (as suggested in the url from Charles), and tell us
about its behaviour, output and logging.

Dovecot tells you only what setting to to adjust. Where you put your
settings is largely dependant on your OS or distro implementation.
