On advice/recommendation received on this list, I removed version 1.0.15 with: rm -rf /usr/local/dovecot However, now that I have version 2 properly installed, configured, and ready to start testing with Postfix, it appears the old version is still in /usr/local/sbin, /usr/local/include, /usr/local/libexec, /usr/local/lib and /usr/local/shared/doc. Thinking that anything in /usr/local is

Look into logrotate, and turn off your debugging stuff.

After applying some changes to 10-master.conf as detailed at http://wiki2.dovecot.org/HowTo/PostfixDovecotLMTP I receive the following when trying to start: doveconf: Fatal: Error in configuration file /etc/dovecot/conf.d/10-master.conf line 49: Expecting '{' I'm trying to enable LMTP.

When logs (e.g. /var/log/maillog) are rotated (e.g. to /var/log/maillog-YYYYMDD) is there a way via systemd or whatever to assign read permission to a specific group? Right now, for example - ls -l maillog* -rw------- 1 root root 3105240 Mar 13 22:04 maillog -rw------- 1 root root 1079031 Feb 24 04:39 maillog-20190224 -rw------- 1 root root 7237640 Mar 1 12:59 maillog-20190228 -rw------- 1

Hello, I have a curious phenomenon. Dovecot logs normally to /var/log/maillog. If I restart my server, dovecot loggs to /var/log/audit/audit.log. If I restart dovecot, dovecot loggs to /var/log/maillog again. And I think, wenn logrotate is restarting, dovecot logs to audit.log. But I don't know why. Any Ideas? greetings Ralf

Since I've decided to go to version 2, which is a lot more difficult to set up because I have to look in a lot more places than I did with version 1.0.15, what do I do with the old dovecot/passwd or its contents? I see no references to it in any of the stuff in conf.d or doc/dovecot/wiki. As always, thanks in advance.

My system has a great big four users. The Dovecot wiki says LMTP is more efficient, and someone on IRC told me I'd need it if I were ever to use sieve, which at this time I have no intention of doing. Should I stick with LDA, or just implement LMTP so I'm ready if ever I need it in the future? The bottom line is, it's unclear from the wiki how to explicitly specify use of one or the

I have recently noticed that my dovecot-deliver.log is huge and wanted to start rotating it. So a couple of questions: 1. Can the dovecot-deliver.log be combined with the maillog, that gets rotated weekly? If it can be done, is it advisable? Since the inception of this particular server, the log file has been located in the /home/vmail directory. Is there a reason it shouldn?t be located in

Hi, I'm trying to figure out which process is rotating my maillog every Sunday at 4:03 am. This happens on all of my centos 4 boxes. AFAICT, logrotate is not running. This is from a fairly minimal install, so I'm assuming this is a default process. --- [root at penguin ~]# ls -l /var/log/maill* -rw------- 1 root root 230603836 Sep 27 16:30 /var/log/maillog -rw------- 1 root

That doesn?t seem to work either. Where do I find logs for log rotation to see the reason it failed?

So, the question is, why can I rotate the log manually, but cron returns a permission error? Do I need to tell cron to run it as sudo or something like that?

Looks like a lot of tedium. I'll give it a go on Red Hat, but not before a full backup first.

Anyone having problems with logrotate and CentOS 5.4? Although I have /etc/logrotate.d/mail (contents below) to rotate my maillog file, it fails to do it automatically: /var/log/maillog { compress dateext maxage 365 rotate 60 size=+1024k missingok postrotate /etc/init.d/MailScanner restart endscript } ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ logrotate.conf:

I installed icecast 2.40 using the standard apt-get install command on my Debian 8.2 (Weezie) system, but I accidentally chose the incorrect answer to the dialog asking if I wanted to answer configuration questions or edit the XML myself. I then removed icecast2 in the normal 'apt-get remove' manner. I followed this by executing the install command again. Icecast2 re-installed, but

I could, but I have this big old Fedora system just waiting for me to get LS working on it, so I think I need to concentrate on making that happen. If it's hard, difficult, tedious, inconvenient, then that's what it is. I want the cue sheet capability some way somehow, so I'm just going to have to knuckle down and buckle down and do it. Right?

Looks like it's what I need. Do you know, is there a distro or repo for Fedora? Or should I build it from source?
