You mean verify with doveconf? Same result
doveconf |grep -i userpassword
password = %{ldap:userPassword}

Could it be that you have
'userpassword' instead of 'userPassword' in your config?

Dovecot 2.4.1 works fine on my Debian Trixie server. I use LDAP as
backend for the users.
I don't have problems. Authentication works fine. However logging show
every time the following line:
auth-worker(<user
name@domain,::1)<109040><3v5ddOlJvrgAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAB>: request [7]:
Error: ldap: auth_passdb_post settings: Failed to parse configuration:
Failed to expand passdb_fields/password setting variables: ldap: No such
attribute 'userpassword'
The LDAP authentication works correct. So I don't understand this
message.
My correct working LDAP configuration in auth-ldap.conf.ext:
passdb ldap {
passdb_use_worker = yes
passdb_ldap_filter =
(&(objectClass=PromptMailUser)(accountStatus=TRUE)(mailDeliveryaddress=%{user}))
ldap_bind = yes
fields {
user = %{ldap:mailDeliveryaddress}
password = %{ldap:userPassword}
}
}
userdb ldap {
userdb_use_worker = yes
userdb_ldap_filter =
(&(objectClass=PromptMailUser)(accountStatus=TRUE)(mailDeliveryaddress=%{user}))
fields {
home = %{ldap:mailBase}
mail = %{ldap:mailMessageStore}
mail_path = %{ldap:mailMessageStore}
quota_storage_size = %{ldap:dovecotQuota}
}
}
