[Dovecot] Strange behavior of mysql 4.1.8/9 + dovecot1.0-test58~test61 on Fedora 3 x86_64 machine
Some additional tests. I tried to add a test connection in the main.c under auth, which should be the main file of dovecot-auth. The test connection is done as the first statement in the int main() function. However, it still reports that the connection fails due to access denied. What should I do?? Any suggestions are welcomed. -----Original Message----- From: dovecot-bounces at dovecot.org [mailto:dovecot-bounces at dovecot.org] On Behalf Of #LIU QI# Sent: Friday, January 14, 2005 11:41 AM To: dovecot at dovecot.org Subject: [Dovecot] Strange behavior of mysql 4.1.8/9 + dovecot1.0-test58~test61 on Fedora 3 x86_64 machine I've built & configured the dovecot to use mysql as the passdb and userdb. However, dovecot-auth always claims that the username/password of mysql server is wrong (access denied by mysql server) during the connection. When I set the password to NULL, it can successfully connect to mysql server! I am 100% sure that I typed the correct password (by copy & paste), and I can successfully use this username/password connect to mysql server by mysqladmin and other mysql clients. I even wrote a C program which also successfully connects to mysql server. Furthermore, even I want to use pam_mysql in dovecot, the pam library also claims that it cannot connect to mysql server, but pam_mysql can be successfully used in postfix (exactly the same pam configuration, the same database, the same table, and the same username/password). Can anybody give me a hint why? Thank you very very very very much.... Crying for help....
