I have been trying to get squirrelmail working and have tracked my problem back to the authdaemon.
Oct 4 09:36:37 localhost imapd: Connection, ip=[::ffff:127.0.0.1]
Oct 4 09:36:37 localhost imapd: authdaemon: s_connect() failed: Connection refused
Oct 4 09:36:37 localhost imapd: [Hint: perhaps authdaemond is not running?]
Oct 4 09:36:37 localhost imapd: LOGIN FAILED, user=eperry@myroadhouse.com, ip=[::ffff:127.0.0.1]
Oct 4 09:36:37 localhost imapd: authentication error: Connection refused
I try to do a /etc/init.d/courier-auth stop and start
Stopping:
| Quote: | * Caching service dependencies ... [ ok ]
* Stopping courier-authlib: authdaemond ...
/sbin/start-stop-daemon: warning: failed to kill 29356: No such process
1 pids were not killed
No process in pidfile `/var/run/authdaemon.pid' found running; none kill [ !! ]
|
BTW: I turned off --quiet in the script, hoping it would give me a clue to the problem.
Starting:

I can not seem to get it running, I have rebuild the package 2 times. I just don't get it. I have searched many of the problems but none of the solutions seem to help. I have been at this for 2 days and it is probably something stupid.
my /etc/courier/authlib/authdaemonrc config file

##VERSION: $Id: authdaemonrc.in,v 1.12 2005/07/05 12:25:08 mrsam Exp $
#
# Copyright 2000-2005 Double Precision, Inc. See COPYING for
# distribution information.
#
# authdaemonrc created from authdaemonrc.dist by sysconftool
#
# Do not alter lines that begin with ##, they are used when upgrading
# this configuration.
#
# This file configures authdaemond, the resident authentication daemon.
#
# Comments in this file are ignored. Although this file is intended to
# be sourced as a shell script, authdaemond parses it manually, so
# the acceptable syntax is a bit limited. Multiline variable contents,
# with the \ continuation character, are not allowed. Everything must
# fit on one line. Do not use any additional whitespace for indentation,
# or anything else.
##NAME: authmodulelist:2
#
# The authentication modules that are linked into authdaemond. The
# default list is installed. You may selectively disable modules simply
# by removing them from the following list. The available modules you
# can use are: authuserdb authpam authshadow authmysql authcustom authpipe
authmodulelist="authvchkpw"
#authmodulelist="authmysql authpam authuserdb authshadow authcustom authpipe"
##NAME: authmodulelistorig:3
#
# This setting is used by Courier's webadmin module, and should be left
# alone
authmodulelistorig="authuserdb authpam authshadow authmysql authcustom authpipe"
##NAME: daemons:0
#
# The number of daemon processes that are started. authdaemon is typically
# installed where authentication modules are relatively expensive: such
# as authldap, or authmysql, so it's better to have a number of them running.
# PLEASE NOTE: Some platforms may experience a problem if there's more than
# one daemon. Specifically, SystemV derived platforms that use TLI with
# socket emulation. I'm suspicious of TLI's ability to handle multiple
# processes accepting connections on the same filesystem domain socket.
#
# You may need to increase daemons if as your system load increases. Symptoms
# include sporadic authentication failures. If you start getting
# authentication failures, increase daemons. However, the default of 5
# SHOULD be sufficient. Bumping up daemon count is only a short-term
# solution. The permanent solution is to add more resources: RAM, faster
# disks, faster CPUs...
daemons=5
##NAME: authdaemonvar:2
#
# authdaemonvar is here, but is not used directly by authdaemond. It's
# used by various configuration and build scripts, so don't touch it!
authdaemonvar=/var/lib/courier/authdaemon
##NAME: DEBUG_LOGIN:0
#
# Dump additional diagnostics to syslog
#
# DEBUG_LOGIN=0 - turn off debugging
# DEBUG_LOGIN=1 - turn on debugging
# DEBUG_LOGIN=2 - turn on debugging + log passwords too
#
# ** YES ** - DEBUG_LOGIN=2 places passwords into syslog.
#
# Note that most information is sent to syslog at level 'debug', so
# you may need to modify your /etc/syslog.conf to be able to see it.
DEBUG_LOGIN=0
##NAME: DEFAULTOPTIONS:0
#
# A comma-separated list of option=value pairs. Each option is applied
# to an account if the account does not have its own specific value for
# that option. So for example, you can set
# DEFAULTOPTIONS="disablewebmail=1,disableimap=1"
# and then enable webmail and/or imap on individual accounts by setting
# disablewebmail=0 and/or disableimap=0 on the account.
DEFAULTOPTIONS=""
##NAME: LOGGEROPTS:0
#
# courierlogger(1) options, e.g. to set syslog facility
#
LOGGEROPTS=""

I figured it out. I just manually started the auth, grabbed the pid and echoed it to the pid file.
Then stopped the server and started it just find. |
