Package: dovecot-imapd
Version: 1.0.rc15-2
Severity: important
Hi
I've upgraded my system from Sarge to Etch and Dovecot now rejects all
imaps connections from clients with the following error messages in syslog:
Jul 27 17:56:54 chandra dovecot: child 3269 (login) returned error 89
Jul 27 17:56:55 chandra dovecot: imap-login: read(ssl-parameters.dat) failed:
Un expected EOF
"/var/run/dovecot/login/ssl-parameters.dat" exists and is 80 bytes long.
Deleting it does not help (it gets regenerated next time I start
dovecot).
Workaround I found is to generate ssl-parameters.dat by hand by running
"/usr/lib/dovecot/ssl-build-param" (file generated in this way is 230
bytes long) and setting "ssl_parameters_regenerate = 0" in
/etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf.
Following are contents of my /etc/dovecot.conf file (without the comments):
protocols = imaps
log_timestamp = "%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S "
login_processes_count = 1
mail_location = maildir:%h/Maildir
mail_extra_groups = mail
maildir_copy_with_hardlinks = yes
protocol imap {
}
protocol pop3 {
pop3_uidl_format = %08Xu%08Xv
}
auth default {
mechanisms = plain
passdb pam {
}
userdb passwd {
}
user = root
}
dict {

Hi
Purging and reinstalling "dovecot-imapd", "dovecot-common" and "openssl"
packages (and deleting /var/run/dovecot and /var/lib/dovecot by hand)
fixed this problem.
Obviously there was something wrong with my installation (although I am
unable to find the exact cause).
Best regards
