Would it be the problem of more than one BerkeleyDB. If YES which one shall I remove and how to do it. TIA

Your log indicates a FATAL error when Postfix tried to restart...port 25 isn't showing up on your netstat. So if the service didn't start, due to (it seems), a configuration issue in the specified file (seen in your logs), then yes, you wouldn't be able to get to it. It's not running.

Fix your configuration, and restart the service.

Hi TB0ne,


Thanks for your advice.


Still I can't get my problem fixed.

Hmm - not quite what I expected. Are you sure postfix is built with sasl support?

Well at least we've explained one error.

Do some searching for standard debian package build parameters for postfix.

Edit - or did you build from source?

Is saslauth installed (I guess that's what it's called in debian)

What shall I search?

Yes. I followed that article. This is my 4th round building postfix virtual. Previously I built 3 postfix virtual by following howto found on Internet. At finish none of the mail server can work properly. Fortunately I built them on Xen box as guest. It is easy for me to control.

It does not need saslauth. On installing cyrus-sasl-2.1.22 during ./config it was without saslauth
Code:
> --without-saslauthd \

Code:
# tar zxf cyrus-sasl-2.1.22.tar.gz
# cd cyrus-sasl-2.1.22
# export CPPFLAGS="-I/usr/local/mysql/include/mysql"
No complaint

# ./configure \
> --enable-anon \
> --enable-plain \
> --enable-login \
> --enable-sql \
> --disable-krb4 \
> --disable-otp \
> --disable-cram \
> --disable-digest \
> --with-mysql=/usr/local/mysql/lib/mysql \
> --without-pam \
> --without-saslauthd \
> --without-pwcheck \
> --with-dblib=berkeley \
> --with-bdb-libdir=/usr/local/bdb/lib \
> --with-bdb-incdir=/usr/local/bdb/include \
> --with-openssl=/usr/local/ssl \
> --with-plugindir=/usr/local/lib/sasl2

# make
# make install
# ln -s /usr/local/lib/sasl2 /usr/lib/sasl2
# echo "/usr/local/lib/" >> /etc/ld.so.conf
# ldconfig
Shall build it again?

Well you're trying to use sasl authentication, so you'll need it.

Rebuild, and don't forget you'll need saslauthd running as well for postfix to authenticate (although it should start without it)

Rebuild the package without improvement.


# which saslauthd
Code:
/usr/sbin/saslauthd
It is working


# grep pwcheck /usr/local/lib/sasl2/smtpd.conf
Code:
#pwcheck_method: auxprop
pwcheck_method: saslauthd

Tried auxprop/saslauthd


$ tail /var/log/mail.log
Code:
Nov  5 03:49:17 xen03 postfix/postfix-script[1239]: refreshing the Postfix mail system

# postconf -a
Code:
dovecot

It only supports dovecot NOT cyrus included (both of them)


I found following thread on;

DA bug report logs - #350151
unsupported SASL server implementation: cyrus
http://bugs.donarmstrong.com/cgi-bin...cgi?bug=350151


I have the patch file "cyrus-sasl-patch-1.diff" download. Please advise how to run it to make correction. TIA

What version of postfix are you building, and remind me - why are you building from source?
