Thanks for your help, but its the same: Cannot obtain information for userid 89: No such file or directory I think user id 89 is usually presumed to be vpopmail. If you have courier using vpopmail as it's authorization scheme, and vpopmail is running under a different user id, that might be the problem? I'm not sure what you'd do to resolve the issue, but maybe that would get everyone looking in the right direction? Hopefully, alex

Tried this already, there are (beside of the install files) no courier parts in the system :( I think he is getting the uid/gid 89 from vpopmail/include ... but i don't know, how it comes to this error. ___ Gesendet von Yahoo!

Rick Yes ... previous install was 3.x, now i tried to update to the provided 4.x Hi, Yah, there is some sort of authlib or confauth or something that it tries to run in the configure process if it exists. I had the same problem once. I think it was in /usr/local/authlib/something something. Can't help more because I had too many issues with the 4.x series and went back to the 3.x series.

Gimme a few and I'll download the 4.x series and see where it is exactly, I'm pretty sure it comes from the auth deamon, not courier itself. Rick

Rick You are right (there is a line with userid in authinfo.c, but the error doesnt come from there). I think its after line 25606 in the configure script. But as i said ... i have no programming experience :) It would be great, if you find time to have a look on this. TIA Andreas Hi, I'm pretty sure it's coming from courierauthconfig, still checking though. That's part of the courier-auth package. Regards, Rick

After i tried to update only selected packages (which does not work) I tried a fresh install (removed all packeges, only the data dir is left), following the rules exactly. Both did not work :( I think I remember setting --uid 89 or something when I got that error before. I had the authdaemon working, according to ps | aux. But it was not responding to queries with the error no such file. So I tried to set the mailuser/group with the ./configure parameters and since this Im getting this error message. :( After one try the authdaemon wasnt starting any longer ... and re-compiling crashes with the mentioned error. *hmpf* ___ Gesendet von Yahoo!
