I'm running the latest versions of cyrus-imap2, cyrus-sasl2, and cyrus-saslauthd on FreeBSD 4.11.

When I use saslpasswd2 to set or change a password, I always get a log item saying that saslpasswd2 "Coudn't update db" even though the password is changed successfully, the db file is modified, and subsequent authentication with the new password succeeds just fine.

An example:

May 30 03:46:13 lilbuddy saslpasswd2: setpass succeeded for [EMAIL PROTECTED]
May 30 03:46:13 lilbuddy saslpasswd2: Couldn't update db

I don't see these errors when cyrus-imap sets a password as part of sasl_auto_transition (I am authenticating imap via saslauthd). So, in that case the password update occurs with no error in the log.

In either case, password updates are occurring successfully, but I am trying to figure out what is causing these seemingly inconsequential errors. I have seen numerous references to this problem in Google searches, but no evidence of a solution.

Any ideas? I tried posting about this to the cyrus-sasl list, but got no response. Thanks!
