Hi,
still having troubles with cyrus!
MAJOR PROBLEM : I cannot set up mailboxes.
Getting access to cyrus gives me:
# cyradm --user cyrus --auth login localhost
IMAP Password:
Login failed: generic failure at
/usr/lib/perl/5.6.1/Cyrus/IMAP/Admin.pm line 114
cyradm: cannot authenticate to server with login as cyrus
This is exactly the error I get when I try --auth login. Try with --auth
plain. If that is rejected as an unworthy mech, see if cyrus-sasl was
compiled with the --enable-plain option. Failing that you can try it with
--auth CRAM-MD5.
If all of this fails, check the owner (user and group) of your sasldb2 file
(on my system, /etc/sasldb2; yours may be different). The file should be
owned by cyrus with 600 permissions. On some systems (esp. sendmail
8.12.x), the permissions may need to be 640 with the group of smmsp (or
whatever group sendmail belongs to).
Further information You may need:
