i installed courier imap 4.1.1 in an uml server as replacement for my
current vserver setup.
It also has exim 4.63, maildrop, getmail4, spamassassin and clamav.
Courier is giving me following errors:
Aug 14 13:06:44 loki imapd: Error: Permission denied
Aug 14 13:06:44 loki imapd: Failed to create cache file: maildir_lock
(benedict)
Aug 14 13:06:44 loki imapd: Error: Permission denied
Aug 14 13:06:44 loki imapd: Failed to create cache file:
./.other/tmp/1187089588.M243537P2466_imapuid_5.loki (benedict)
The home directory is mounted from the host via hostfs.
In a vserver, it runs ok so the permissions on the home directory should
be ok.
Maildrop is used to deliver mail and it also does something wrong: mail
in my directory is delivered als root:root.
Any ideas on those errors?
Thanks,
Benedict
Apparently, as far as I can tell, it's a hostfs problem.
I'm mounting my host /home in an UML guest:
none /home hostfs defaults,/home 0 0
This works but it has some problems.
If i make a file, as user benedict, then it also fails with a permission
denied message. But a file is created but with different permissions than
specified, it's owned by root.
Checking maildrop revealed the same problems:
maildrop -d benedict -V 4 < /tmp/randomfile 2>&1 | tee > result
There seems to be another filesystem, capable of handling this: humfs
Of to investigate.
In the end, i would want to place my /home partition in a file and mount that
as extra partition but i think it will spell disaster when mounted by several
umls.
If anybody has some tips, shoot :)
Regards,
Benedict
