Hello! I have problems..
I want to replace my current pop3 system to imap system and started looking for Cyrus in hopes to accomplish it.. I have exim as mta, installed from .deb's in installation of debian (potato, only stable packages installed) I first tried to install cyrus-imapd with apt-get - installed cyrus-imapd + cyrus-common and felt like working : WRONG! Cannot find imap.conf.. Well then I went to cyrus homepages and dl'd cyrus-sasl-1.5.27.tar.gz & cyrus-imapd-2.0.16.tar.gz but since I'm 'n00b' and read docs and tried to read faqs (that are really inadequate) I had several questions.. Like how to get sasl to coop up with PAM? and most of all, how the hell do I get imapd compiled? while running configure (as simpliest as ./configure --with-dbdir=/usr/local/BerkeleyDB.3.3/) -> checking for com_err in -lcom_err... no configure: warning: Parts of com_err distribuion were found, but not compile_et. configure: warning: Will build com_err from included sources. and then running make -> Running Mkbootstrap for Cyrus::IMAP () chmod 644 IMAP.bs LD_RUN_PATH="/work/root/cyrus/cyrus-imapd-2.0.16/perl/imap/../../lib:/usr/local/lib:/usr/lib" cc -o blib/arch/auto/Cyrus/IMAP/IMAP.so -shared -L/usr/local/lib IMAP.o -L/work/root/cyrus/cyrus-imapd-2.0.16/perl/imap/../../lib -lcyrus -lsasl -lssl -lcrypto /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lssl collect2: ld returned 1 exit status make[2]: *** [blib/arch/auto/Cyrus/IMAP/IMAP.so] Error 1 make[2]: Leaving directory `/work/root/cyrus/cyrus-imapd-2.0.16/perl/imap' make[1]: *** [all] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/work/root/cyrus/cyrus-imapd-2.0.16/perl' make: *** [all] Error 1 and 'bang'. I would appreciate 'walk with hand in hand' instructions how to get that cyrus working and replace current pop3 with it.. Additional info will be dug up if someone asks, like I told earlier, I'm bit 'n00b' and it's hard for me to figure out what else is required to pinpoint my problem. - Mika Tuunanen
