First, let me say that this list has been useful to me in the past when reading the archives, so thanks to those that contribute.
I just updated cyrus-sasl from 1.5.27 to 2.1.20 and cyrus-imapd from 2.0.16 to 2.2.10. I followed the steps for upgrading that was included in the documentation and on the project's website, but I can't auth using sasldb2. My imapd.conf follows (I'm leaving out the tls lines): configdirectory: /var/imap partition-default: /var/spool/imap admins: cyrus root srvtab: /var/imap/srvtab allowanonymouslogin: no sasl_pwcheck_method: auxprop sasl_auxprop_plugin: sasldb2 sasldb_path: /etc/sasldb2 sasl_mech_list: LOGIN PLAIN CRAM-MD5 DIGEST-MD5 I've also tried using "sasl_auxprop_plugin: sasldb" with no success. I don't think I need all those mechanisms listed, but I put them all in to make sure that wasn't the problem. Next is the output from sasldblistusers2 (with usernames changed): [EMAIL PROTECTED]: cmusaslsecretPLAIN [EMAIL PROTECTED]: cmusaslsecretPLAIN [EMAIL PROTECTED]: cmusaslsecretPLAIN And it goes on to list all email users on the system. However, whenever I try to login by any means, I get an "user not found" error. $ imtest -u user1 myhostname.mydomain.org S: * OK myhostname Cyrus IMAP4 v2.2.10 server ready C: C01 CAPABILITY S: * CAPABILITY IMAP4 IMAP4rev1 ACL QUOTA LITERAL+ MAILBOX-REFERRALS NAMESPACE UIDPLUS ID NO_ATOMIC_RENAME UNSELECT CHILDREN MULTIAPPEND BINARY SORT THREAD=ORDEREDSUBJECT THREAD=REFERENCES ANNOTATEMORE IDLE STARTTLS S: C01 OK Completed Please enter your password: C: L01 LOGIN user1 {9} S: + go ahead C: <omitted> S: L01 NO Login failed: user not found Authentication failed. generic failure Security strength factor: 0 I'm guessing that one of my configuration files is the problem. My only configuration options when compiling sasl and imapd were: --with-bdb-libdir=/usr/lib/ --with-bdb-incdir=/usr/include/db4 --disable-krb4 --disable-gssapi The only other information I can think of that may be relevant is that I performed step 2 under the "Upgrading from 2.1.x or earlier" install-upgrade.html document. If I had been thinking, I probably would have just gone back and recompiled using --with-mboxlist-db=berkeley and --with-seen-db=flat, but I don't know if that is a problem or not.
