* Found my error.

I moved the dovecot source code after compiling it. Didn’t realize there were embedded/absolute URLS within the dovecot source tree. All I needed to do was make clean && make dovecot, then imaptest compiled no problem.

Subject: ImapTest utility not compiling


Following the wiki instructions here: http://www.imapwiki.org/ImapTest/Installation

I’ve run into a wall trying to compile the imapTest utility (dovecot compiled without any problems). I think there’s a problem in the imapTest utility? Copy/pasted compile output and attached. The gist of the problem seems to be that imaptest can’t find the dovecot headers and libraries  (configure script was executed like this: ./configure --with-dovecot=/usr/src/dovecot-20140420

checkpoint.c:3:17: error: lib.h: No such file or directory
checkpoint.c:4:17: error: str.h: No such file or directory
<and many more>

Based on these errors I believe there’s a compatibility problem between the current imapTest utility and dovecot.

The configure script said to report errors to this email address.
