I got dovecot-2.2.36.4 compiled but at start the log shows

dovecot[342614]: master: Dovecot v2.2.36.4 (baf9232c1) starting up for imap
dovecot[342617]: ssl-params: Generating SSL parameters
dovecot[342614]: master: Error: service(auth): command startup failed, throttling for 2 secs
dovecot[342617]: auth: Fatal: master: service(auth): child 342623 killed with signal 11 (core dumped)
dovecot[342614]: master: Error: service(auth): command startup failed, throttling for 4 secs

The configuration files are from dovecot-2.2.24 whre they worked perfect.

What to do to get it working?
conf.d
PS: I can provide dovecot.conf and conf.d/10-auth.conf if necessary.
