Hello,
When trying to run dovecot I am getting the following error :-
Error: Error in configuration file /usr/local/etc/dovecot.conf line 923:
Unknown section type (section changed at line 923)
Fatal: Invalid configuration in /usr/local/etc/dovecot.conf
The following section is at line 923.
userdb static {
args = uid=5000 gid=5000 home=/var/spool/vmail/%d/%n allow_all_users=yes
}
It seems to be that dovecot does'nt understand the section, but I
configured with support for static userdb and this was confirmed before
compilation took place. OS is Solaris 9.
Any advice would be appreciated.
Thanks,
David.
