Hello,
I've just installed Dovecot from the http://xi.rename-it.nl/debian/
repository. But I have a problem with the mdbox Format.
When the home folder is empty Dovecot should create the folder
structure if the first mail arrived or the user logs in the first time.
But I get following error:
Sep 16 12:30:41 smtp dovecot: lmtp(31244): Connect from local
Sep 16 12:30:41 smtp dovecot: lmtp(31244, info at example.de): Error:

Also if I try to create a mailbox by hand I get a similar error.
doveadm(info at example.de): Error: file_dotlock_open() failed with file
/var/mail/es030107p1/mdbox/mailboxes/INBOX/dbox-Mails/dovecot.index.log:
No such file or directory
doveadm(info at example.de): Error: Can't create mailbox INBOX: Internal
error occurred. Refer to server log for more information. [2010-09-16
14:07:42]
If I now create the dbox-Mails directory and the dovecot.index.log by
hand and make a
doveadm -v force-resync -u info at example.de INBOX
everthing is alright.
Also I can not create a new IMAP-folder with Thunderbird.
It seems Dovecot forgets to create the dbox-Mails directory and the
dovecot.index.log file.
Now my config:

ok, thanx Timo for the info. I just made a update, but the new version seem not yet in the repository. So I just have to wait a little bit. :) On 16.09.2010 16:59, Timo Sirainen wrote:> On Thu, 2010-09-16 at 16:54 +0200, Michael Grosseck wrote: > >> Sep 16 12:30:41 smtp dovecot: lmtp(31244, info at example.de): Error: >> file_dotlock_open() failed with file >> /var/mail/es030107p1/mdbox/mailboxes/INBOX/dbox-Mails/dovecot.index.log: >> No such file or directory >> > Yeah, I broke this two days ago and fixed today: > http://hg.dovecot.org/dovecot-2.0/rev/0540815363b6 > > >
