Hi,
I'm migrating an existing dovecot (1. series) to new hardware. The new
dovecot is a 2. series.
I copied the old config and did a
doveconf -n -c /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf > dovecot-2.conf
Then I moved the dovecot-2.conf to dovecot.conf and restarted dovecot.
When Postfix tries to deliver a message I get this error :
2013-09-16 11:00:10 auth: Fatal: net_connect_unix(auth-worker) in
directory /run/dovecot failed: Permission denied (euid=65534(nobody)
egid=65534(nogroup) missing +r perm: /run/dovecot/auth-worker, dir owned
by 0:0 mode=0755)
2013-09-16 11:00:10 master: Error: service(auth): command startup
failed, throttling
I tried different things with /run/dovecot/auth-worker, but the error
remains. I tried to chmod 777 the socket, I chown-ed to dovecot:dovecot,
vmail:vmail.
What am I missing ? AFAIK the sql-tables are OK.
Thanks.
doveconf -n is this :

AFAIK the sql-tables are OK. >Hi, I just tried with chown nobody:nogroup auth-worker Now the error is gone. The question remains : what does create auth-worker ? The installer ? then I think ubuntu does it wrong. Any comments ? Regards, Koenraad.
