similar to: chdir failed: Permission denied

Ok, so if anyone runs into a problem where dovecot reports chdir(/home/BLAH) failed with uid NNN: Permission denied in Fedora Core 4 or otherwise, it seems to be a SELinux problem. Turn OFF SELinux and the problem goes away. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL:

Hi Dovecot fails to chdir() into users home directory giving the following error: Oct 9 16:43:49 jura dovecot: dovecot: Fatal: chdir(/a/home/mina) failed: Permission denied (euid=1118 0(mina) egid=11332(devel) missing +x perm: /a/home) Oct 9 16:43:49 jura dovecot: dovecot: child 14441 (imap) returned error 89 (Fatal failure) The reason seems to be that user primary group is "devel"

I've had this issue for sometime, I finally gave up and switched to Courier-Imap but I'm finding I hate data storage / structure so I decided to give dovecot another go but am still running into the same issue. I had this working once upon a time and can not for the life of me figure it out. Here's some basic info. Dist: Gentoo 2005.1 Emerge Info: net-mail/dovecot-1.0_beta8

Hi, I've been trying to set up Exin and Dovecot and think I've almost gotten there.

Just upgraded a file server to Samba 4.17.9-Debian and Bullseye (Debian 11). Noticed that am now getting a number of errors in the smbd log: 'chdir_current_service: vfs_Chfir (a-directory) failed. Permission Denied uid=................ The uid on all the entries seems to correspond to a computer/machine account if I look it up with 'wbinfo --uid-info'. Thoughts? Thank you

hi, I am running debian lenny standard install and dovecot also as a standard install. I have a problem with POP3 access. The error message is: May 19 09:16:10 greenchilly dovecot: chdir(/home/vmail/example.com/john) failed with uid 5000: Permission denied May 19 09:16:10 greenchilly dovecot: child 26253 (pop3) returned error 89 May 19 09:16:10 greenchilly dovecot: pop3-login: Login:

Using Debian Etch package dovecot-common and dovecot-pop3d, based on 1.0.rc15-2 My home directories are set up with 770 permissions as follows: /home/<group name>/<user name> Using this method, users MUST be a member of the appropriate group to access their own home directory. If they are not, they can't chdir past /home. This appears to kill dovecot with a

Hello, Samba refuses to be browseable. I started out wanting to configure it as a PDC, just as I have done previously with samba 2.2.8 (and openldap). smbclient -L localhost -U% gives "Error returning browse list: NT_STATUS_NETWORK_ACCESS_DENIED". Using debian 3.0r1, samba 3.0.0, openldap with nsswitch, etc. I am a newbie at looking at the logs, I see the access denied

Hi all, I'm running Samba Version 3.0.21a on SUSE Linux 9.3. For the Hardware I'm using a Dell Power Edge 1750, this is connected with a QLA2300_7xx HBA on a CX300 DUN EMC? Disk array machine. The operating system works on the local disks from the Power Edge, the /data share is on the /dev/sdb1 which is the LUN on the CX300. All seems to work, bat I have continuously follow error

hi there! i'm trying to run dovecot 1.2.4 managesieve service with mysql auth. authentication is obviously going fine, i have debug_auth set to on and can see log lines indicating auth success: 2009-11-18 16:04:24 auth(default): Info: client in: AUTH 1 PLAIN service=pop3 secured lip=127.0.0.1 rip=127.0.0.1 lport=10100 rport=42497 resp=<hidden>

Dovecot is faulting on an error about permissions that it shouldn't do. I've got an user with its home dir with permissions 700, and inside the mail directory with the mboxes. In the error log I can see: 'Can't chdir to /home/user. Permission denied' I wonder why it has to chdir to that directory and why it can't access. Shouldn't it be running as the user?

Hi Does somebody know the workaround I have some users, who are able to log in to dovecot but others not.... even the failpermissions in directories are same. Also mbox folder is excatly same mail Some settings in /etc/dovecot.conf first_valid_uid = 500 last_valid_uid = 1500 first_valid_gid = 500 last_valid_gid = 515 default_mail_env = mbox:~/mail:INBOX=/var/spool/mail/%u So the

Hi all. I have been reading the list archives and can't seem to find anything that relates to these errors. BackupPC_nightly fails to delete any files, and reports the pool and cpool at zero size. The nightly run as currently configured should be deleting a ton of files (only one hardlink) but it deletes nothing, and so the drive is now 100% and staying there. I have adjusted the conf
