You don’t have vmail group in your system? Either create it or remove
this setting. Most likely you want to remove it, since this setting
was meant only for mbox format, while you’re using maildir.
After much trial and error and following Timos advice, I managed to
get a sync to at least start and it lists folders, then it starts
spamming this:
dsync(alantestu...@whatever.com): Error:
safe_mkstemp(/tmp/dovecot.doveadm.) failed: No such file or directory
dsync(alantestu...@whatever.com): Error:
safe_mkstemp(/tmp/dovecot.doveadm.) failed: No such file or directory
dsync(alantestu...@whatever.com): Error:
safe_mkstemp(/tmp/dovecot.doveadm.) failed: No such file or directory
...
/tmp/dovecot.doveadm. does indeed not exist but I can't find any
reference to it online or in the docs,
Any ideas?
Still not able to get anywhere with this :( It really feels like a
permissions problem, either with the master user, the unix user i start
the dsync with (root) or the user that dsync runs as (vmail). I tried
looking at the code for safe_mkstemp but still couldn't work out the
source of this problem. If anyone has an idea it would be great to hear
it!
