Please use

dovecot -n

to show us the running config and version of Dovecot. It this command 
gives you "no such command", search for it using:

find /usr -name dovecot -type f

Did you grabbed the logs from  /var/log/dovecot/dovecot-info.log ? If not 
what's in there? You'll find the correct log file path in the above 
output.

Did you tried to run /etc/init.d/dovecot restart from command line? Or 
maybe: restart dovecot

In either of the above steps you should find an error, if Dovecot is not 
running.
