Hm. I am using Apache2 which, on Ubuntu Dapper 6.06, has mod_php_4. Both the mysql_client and mysql_server packages are version 5.0.19, and I found it impossible to downgrade to 4.1.x. As I see it, then, I can either install mod_php_5 and disable mod_php_4, which should fix this problem, or I can start mysqld using the --old-passwords directive. If I do that, and get rid of and then recreate the mail database, are you saying that will also work? I don't mind whacking the database since this is still a test server and there is nothing in it, and I don't really care about the security associated with longer encrypted passwords, either. In fact, if I do this, I suppose I could go all the way back to 'plain' instead of 'crypt' in the web-cyradm config files. Oh, wait - that is a different password, right? (The users' passwords as opposed to the password that WCA uses to log into the mail database..)
Anyway, which of the two methods is preferable? Some people said a day or so back that they prefer php 4 as it seems to be faster than php 5. /Larry Honig Cheeto wrote: > Hi Larry, > Those saslauthd errors your getting is because your mysql client > library does not support the new password encryption of your mysql > server. you have 2 options > 1) Upgrade your mysql client libraries to the same version as your server > 2) use the "old_passwords" configuration option in your my.cnf. > -Michael > > Larry Honig wrote: > > >I am an idiot.
