This is driving me nuts! It's still not working.
I cleaned everything as mentioned above. I also removed courier-authlib
to be sure there was nothing left behind at all.
(Line breaks added to commands below for readability)
I built Courier-authlib as a normal user:
rpmbuild -tb --define 'xflags --with-mailuser=mailuser
--with-mailgroup=mailuser' sources/courier-authlib-0.57.tar.bz2
When I look at the build output, I see:
... --with-mailuser=courier --with-mailgroup=courier ...
I don't think it really matters what user the authdaemon uses, but it
would be nice to be able to specify. In any case, this shouldn't affect
my current problem (I don't think).
I then installed the rpms:
rpm -i courier-authlib-0.57-1.x86_64.rpm
courier-authlib-devel-0.57-1.x86_64.rpm
courier-authlib-ldap-0.57-1.x86_64.rpm
courier-authlib-userdb-0.57-1.x86_64.rpm
I extracted the Courier tarball, modified submit.C to remove the header
limit, and modified the courier.spec file to prevent it from dying on
unpackaged files. I then re-created the tarball.
Then, I built Courier from my new tarball:
rpmbuild -tb --define 'xflags --with-mailuser=mailuser
--with-mailgroup=mailuser' sources/courier-0.52.1.tar.bz2
I installed the rpms:
rpm -i courier-0.52.1-1.x86_64.rpm
courier-imapd-0.52.1-1.x86_64.rpm
courier-maildrop-0.52.1-1.x86_64.rpm
I attempted to start things up:
# service courier-authlib start
Starting Courier authentication services: authdaemond
# service courier start
Starting Courier mail server:/var/spool/courier/tmp/courierfilter.pid:
Permission denied
courierfilter courierd imapd generating-IMAP-SSL-certificate...
imapd-ssl
Sam, I've been around this list long enough to know that you know what
you're talking about, but I just don't see it.
# /usr/lib/courier/sbin/courierfilter start
/var/spool/courier/tmp/courierfilter.pid: Permission denied
The /usr/lib/courier and /var/spool/courier directories did not exist
prior to this install. What else could be causing this?
