Hi Wynand, I haven't used the latest control patch, so this may be out of date, but I found that no matter what I did, I HAD to have the FQDN of the particular mailserver in ldapcontroldn.
Try setting your ldapcontroldn to: cn=hell.firestarter.net,ou=QmailLDAP,dc=firestarter,dc=net Regards, David -----Original Message----- From: Wynand Theunissen [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 27 November 2001 02:10 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Control patch: cannot start: unable to read controls Hi there Thanks for the help so far ... everything is going well except for the damn control patch. I've been struggling with this thing for the last day now non stop and I cant find whats wrong with it. im using the qmail-ldap-control_20011029.patch.gz with the qmail-ldap-1.03-20011001a.patch.gz patch. Ive moved all my controls into the ldap server and all my control files look ok... when i startup qmail I get the following in /var/log/qmail/current @400000003c02d5ef2e1c969c alert: cannot start: unable to read controls @400000003c02d5ef303f66fc alert: cannot start: unable to read controls @400000003c02d5ef3261452c alert: cannot start: unable to read controls @400000003c02d5ef3487038c alert: cannot start: unable to read controls repeated a million times :) ------- -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 35 Nov 26 23:28 ldapcontroldn which contains: ou=QmailLDAP,dc=firestarter,dc=net -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 21 Nov 26 23:13 ldapserver which contains: hell.firestarter.net ---------- my control.ldif: dn: dc=firestarter, dc=net objectclass: top dn: ou=accounts, dc=firestarter, dc=net objectclass: top objectclass: organizationalUnit ou: accounts dn: ou=QmailLDAP, dc=firestarter, dc=net objectclass: top objectclass: organizationalUnit ou: QmailLDAP dn: cn=hell.firestarter.net,ou=QmailLDAP,dc=firestarter,dc=net objectclass: top objectclass: qmailControl cn: hell.firestarter.net locals: firestarter.net locals: hell.firestarter.net ldapbasedn: dc=firestarter,dc=net ldapuid: 11184 ldapgid: 2210 ldapdefaultquota: 20000000S,1000C quotawarning: You are close to reaching your disk space quota for this mailbox dirmaker: /var/qmail/bin/dirmaker ldaplogin: cn=Manager, dc=firestarter, dc=net ldapServer: hell.firestarter.net ldappassword: {MD5}Xr4ilOzQ4PCOq3aQ0qbuaQ== concurrencyLocal: 20 defaultDomain: firestarter.net defaultHost: hell.firestarter.net ldapMessageStore: /var/qmail/maildirs plusDomain: firestarter.net ------------------------- I've compiled it without -DQLDAP_BAILOUT so that it has to look for the controls in ldap and that way i can make sure its working. I've also commented #RFCFLAGS=-DUSE_RFC2307 -DUSE_RFC822 ------------------- Anybody have any idea why im getting this ? Any help would be much appreciated. Regards Wynand Theunissen
