Howdy,

I need help with installing Cyrus 2.0.16 on a Mandrake 8.1 box.  I've
installed cyrus without problems a couple of times before (over a year
ago -- I'm afraid I don't remember much about it) but am now stumped as to
why I'm having so much trouble with a stock install from sources.

Here's what I pulled down and compiled (in this order):

cyrus-imspd-v1.6a3 <-- To be honest, I'm not quite sure what this is for --
I don't remember using it before.
cyrus-sasl-1.5.27
db-3.3.11
cyrus-imapd-2.0.16

I used only one flag for the imapd configure:  --with-auth=unix

The compile of imapd kept bombing until I found a post online that suggested
(duh) copying the libs and header files for db into the lib area of the
source tree for imapd.  Then it compiled successfully.

After that we kept getting segfaults.  We fixed these by following some
online instructions that involved using the RPM sources for sasl to link it
properly to db.  I didn't do that part, but that's my understanding of what
was done.

Since then, we keep getting messages like:

Nov 26 16:00:05 vcch243 master[16446]: process 23165 exited, signaled to
death by 11

In /var/log/messages.

Also, cyradm will come up to a prompt as long as it doesn't try to connect.
If you give it the server name (or localhost), it just hangs.  That may be
when the "signalled to death" messages come into play -- I'm not really
sure.

We've also tried recompiling without the --with-auth=unix flag, but that
didn't change anything.

Anyone have any ideas?

Thanks,

Matt Kenigson
