Hi,

I just installed the cyrus-imapd-2.2.3 and noticed the following

problem

with cyradm:

[EMAIL PROTECTED] etc]# cyradm -user imap localhost
imclient_connect: unknown host "localhost" at

/usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.3/sun4-solaris/Cyrus/IMAP/Admin.pm

line 71.

The problem seems to come from the following function call:

getaddrinfo(host, port, &hints, &res0)

in lib/imclient.c on line 239

This might be Solrais 9 specific.I had to remove patch 112874-22 to

get

cyrus 2.2.3 to run at all. See also:
<http://www.mail-archive.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/msg17098.ht
ml>

In order to remove this patch it was also necessary to remove the the

patches 112970-06 and 113319-17 because of dependencies.

Can somone confirm this? Has someome a solution?

Hi Didi,

I have not tried to compile cyrus-imapd on my Solaris 9 box, but I had
a similar problem with OpenLDAP 2.1.24 in that the slapd daemon would
refuse to connect, and would most of the times crash.

To fix the problem, I had to explicitely set the 'ai_protocol' member
of the 'hints' variable to '0' (as it is in Cyrus-IMAPD, it was
unspecified in OpenLDAP).

In theory, this should not be necessary, or so I understand as the C
compiler should interprit the null value as '0'. I am using gcc 3.3.2 on
my Solaris 9 box.

So, you might try this patch and see if it helps:

*** imclient.c.orig     Thu Mar 11 19:28:34 2004
--- imclient.c  Thu Mar 11 19:28:50 2004

*** 236,241 ****
--- 236,242 ----
      hints.ai_family = PF_UNSPEC;
      hints.ai_socktype = SOCK_STREAM;
      hints.ai_flags = AI_CANONNAME;
+     hints.ai_protocol = 0;
      if (getaddrinfo(host, port, &hints, &res0))
        return -1;
      for (res = res0; res; res = res->ai_next) {

Mike,

thanks for your answer, but unfortunately this didn't work out I still get:

imclient_connect: unknown host "localhost" at /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.3/sun4-solaris/Cyrus/IMAP/Admin.pm line 71.
