From: "Ben JW" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> | i'm trying to install courier to use authvchkpw but the install script never | finds the vpopmail account on the system. [freebsd 5.0] when i use gmake | after configure. | == | /usr/libexec/elf/ld: cannot find -lvpopmail | gmake[1]: *** [authvchkpw] Error 1 | gmake[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/local/src/courier-imap-1.5.3/authlib' | gmake: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 | == | how do i tell configure where the vpopmail account lives?
Giving back the help I received. My issue was permissions Bill Michell wrote: | | > /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lvpopmail | Either the vpopmail libraries aren't installed (you may need to install a | special vpopmail development rpm) or else the general user doesn't have | permission to read the directory that the vpopmail library has been | installed to. | Thanks for your reply Bill, I looked at the permissions on /home/vpopmail/lib/libvpopmail.a and found that the file libvpopmail.a did not allow the current user to read it. I set the read bit on the file and it compiled w/o errors (from what I can see). I didn't see the part (though I may have overlooked it as my eyes are bleeding now), about setting the permissions on the libvpopmail.a file to read for the user building courier. If it is in the docs maybe it should be in bold text.
