Hi ! I've read alot of messages regarding the error with cyrus-imapd cyradm command, and seldom any good replies.
I've composed a quick workaround tested on Fedora Core 2. --- [EMAIL PROTECTED] imap]# cyradm Can't load '/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.0/i386-linux-thread-multi/auto/Cyrus/IMAP/IMAP.so' for module Cyrus::IMAP: /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.0/i386-linux-thread-multi/auto/Cyrus/IMAP/IMAP.so: undefined symbol: db_version at /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.3/i386-linux-thread-multi/DynaLoader.pm line 229. at /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.0/i386-linux-thread-multi/Cyrus/IMAP/Admin.pm line 44 Compilation failed in require at /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.0/i386-linux-thread-multi/Cyrus/IMAP/Admin.pm line 44.

BEGIN failed--compilation aborted. -- For me, an upgraded Fedora Core 2 installation also caused this error.. I finally found a solution from "Victor" here : http://asg.web.cmu.edu/archive/message.php?mailbox=archive.info-cyrus&msg=30493 But since my customer requires to use RPMs, I had to make a little hack. From a basic install, I only downloaded the same source as the Fedora RPM, and went into the perl/imap directory. I changed the lines in Makefile.PL as Victor says in his post. --- my $SASL_LIB = $ENV{SASL_LIB} || "-lsasl2"; with my $SASL_LIB = $ENV{SASL_LIB} || "-lsasl2 -ldb"; and then recomplile. --- Went back to the root folder of imapd and did a ./configure && make. Went into perl/imap and did a make install. For some reason I didn't bother to investigate, the FC2 RPM puts its IMAP.so file in 5.8.0. I then copied the installed files from the 5.8.3 tree back to 5.8.0 tree. --- cp /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.3/i386-linux-thread-multi/auto/Cyrus/IMAP/IMAP.* /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.0/i386-linux-thread-multi/auto/Cyrus/IMAP/ --- (..or you can copy from the perl/imap dir). Then I ran "cyradm" command : [EMAIL PROTECTED] imap]# cyradm cyradm> Thanks to Victor (!)- and hopes this helpes frustrated Fedora/Redhat/SuSE ++ people. My to cents, Regards, K of Norway. -- Mvh, Kjetil Laasby --- Cyrus Home Page: http://asg.web.cmu.edu/cyrus Cyrus Wiki/FAQ: http://cyruswiki.andrew.cmu.edu List Archives/Info: http://asg.web.cmu.edu/cyrus/mailing-list.html
