Greetings. I am unable to have dbmail work; I have tried to look in the archives, but they don’t seem to be searchable, all there is is a directory tree.
My problem: I just installed dbmail on a brand new Fedora 11 server. Sendmail and procmail work perfectly well (I ran a stress test that had about 1 gigabytes go through the mail system); I installed dbmail with the applications manager, created the database back-end with the proper users and reconfigured sendmail (I use webmin). I have configured /etc/dbmail.conf with the proper user name, password, socket path. It appears I can access the IMAP server; the log reads: Jun 26 17:28:50 domus dbmail/imap4d[9654]: Message:[serverchild] serverchild.c,PerformChildTask(+349): incoming connection from [xxxxx] by pid [9654] Jun 26 17:28:51 domus dbmail/imap4d[11158]: Message:[server] pool.c,child_register(+299): register child [11158] Jun 26 17:28:51 domus dbmail/imap4d[9650]: Message:[server] pool.c,scoreboard_state(+590): Scoreboard state: children [3/10], spares [2 (2 - 4)] Jun 26 17:28:54 domus dbmail/imap4d[9654]: Message:[imapsession] dbmail-imapsession.c,dbmail_imap_session_handle_auth(+1623): user (id:4, name xxxxx) tries login Jun 26 17:28:54 domus dbmail/imap4d[9654]: Message:[imapsession] dbmail-imapsession.c,dbmail_imap_session_handle_auth(+1644): user (id 4, name xxxxx) login accepted However, the mail does not seems to go to dbmail, but in the “normal” inbox in /var/spool/mail; which is why I get no mail through IMAP or even POP (by hand with telnetting into port# 110). Then, by exploring the various utilities that come with dbmail, listing the users yields the following: $ dbmail-users -l * Jun 26 17:34:45 domus dbmail-users[11177]: Error:[sql] dbmysql.c,db_connect(+172): mysql_real_connect failed: Access denied for user 'dbmail'@'xxxxx' to database '/var/lib/dbmail/dbmail.db' Failed. Could not connect to database (check log) Command failed. The log reads: Jun 26 17:34:45 domus dbmail/user[11177]: Error:[sql] dbmysql.c,db_connect(+172): mysql_real_connect failed: Access denied for user 'dbmail'@'xxxxx' to database '/var/lib/dbmail/dbmail.db' It is possible to connect to the database either locally with "mysql dbmail -u dbmail -p" on the server or with MySQL Query Browser remotely and create tables in the dbmail database, fill them with data and whatnot. The dbmail tables all return an empty set, except for dbmail_users, which has those 3 records: +-----------+--------------------------------+ | user_idnr | userid | (I do not show the +-----------+--------------------------------+ | 1 | _...@!internal_delivery_user!@__ | other fields who | 2 | anyone | | 3 | __public__ | have zeroes in them) +-----------+--------------------------------+ So it is not a question of dbase permissions nor of network access being invalid. Does anyone would have a clue of what I could be doing wrong? Thanks in advance. (Subsidiary question: no chance of a webmin module for dbmail?) _______________________________________________ DBmail mailing list [email protected] http://mailman.fastxs.nl/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dbmail
