Antonio,

Thanks for the feedback. Attached is the information you requested. The
computer has a static ip address of 192.168.0.30. It has bind9
installed, which is configured the same as my primary DNS server, which
it will eventually replace. The computer 192.168.0.32 is my secondary
DNS. As far as I can tell bind is working correctly.

Ian.

[Bug 611226] Re: Dovecot-common Install Error

2010-07-30 Thread Ian Barton
Antonio,

It is a DNS error. Let me explain what I have done. I am using a pre-
built xen image from http://stacklet.com/

Download stacklet for Ubuntu lucid X64. Create a xen instance using the
image and login:


r...@ubuntu:~# hostname
ubuntu
r...@ubuntu:~# hostname -f
ubuntu.bantercat.co.uk

OK so that works as expected.

Now do a apt-get update and apt-get dist-upgrade, which installs a new
EC2 kernel.

r...@ubuntu:~# hostname
ubuntu
r...@ubuntu:~# hostname -f
hostname: Name or service not known
r...@ubuntu:~#

In /etc/hostname I have just ubuntu. This happens using either DHCP, or
a static IP. I am running bind9 on one of my servers and I am pretty
confident that my DNS is OK. Note that hostname -f works fine on all
other computers in my network.

So it looks as though it's something to do with the kernel which is:

r...@ubuntu:~# uname -r
2.6.32-305-ec2

Ian.

[Bug 611226] [NEW] Dovecot-common Install Error

2010-07-29 Thread Ian Barton
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: dovecot-common

I am trying to install dovecot-imapd on a computer runming the following
kernel: 2.6.32-305-ec2. I get the following errors:


r...@xenmail:~# dpkg --configure dovecot-common
Setting up dovecot-common (1:1.2.9-1ubuntu6.1) ...
Creating generic self-signed certificate:  /etc/ssl/certs/dovecot.pem
(replace with hand-crafted or authorized one if needed).
hostname: Name or service not known
dpkg: error processing dovecot-common (--configure):
 subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1
Errors were encountered while processing:
 dovecot-common

I have xenmail.wilkesley.net in /etc/hosts. It looks as though the
postinst script is failing somehow.

Running dpkg --reconfigure dovecot-common gives the same error.

After a bit of googling I found that I can install without errors if I
first add the Dovecot security certificates to /etc/ssl/certs and
/etc/private/ssl manually.

Ian.
