Summary: dbmail-users - cannot add an alias
Description:
When I try to add an alias using the dbmail-users utility, I get a
segmentation fault.

Does this actually have anything to do with adding an alias, or is it the
version / database check that's failing? Try doing something else with
dbmail-users, does anything work?
----------------------------------------------------------------------

It appears to be everything. Humm...Although I can add a user without a
problem.
su-2.05b# dbmail-users -c username -m 200M
Opening connection to database...
Opening connection to authentication...
Ok. Connected
Segmentation fault (core dumped)
The above failed with the *exact* same messages in the TRACE=5 syslog
(/var/log/maillog) file.

Are you familiar with using gdb for debugging? If you can get a stack trace
of where exactly the segfault is occurring, it would help a lot.
Were you able to run 2.0.0 without trouble? Did you do the database
upgrade scripts to bring the tables up to 2.0 definitions? Did you build
DBMail and then upgrade MySQL to a later version?

Wait, dbmail-users -a foouser works? Can you then select foouser from the
dbmail_users table?
----------------------------------------------------------------------

I've uploaded a file showing me doing a select after adding a user.
Please note that there are a couple of extra fields in there...they were
used by exim and amavisd-new, but I am attempting to get rid of all of
those fields...I've just been too busy with other work to finish this task
yet.
I am not familiar with gdb, but I will try to figure it out. I've been
wanting to do this anyways, it becomes helpful when using actively
developed applications.

How's the GDB work going? If you need more help with it, please join the
development mailing list. In debugging a problem, either someone with

Perfect backtrace. Got it. Fixed in CVS, both in HEAD and dbmail_2_branch.
