I've built and installed cyrus sasl 2.1.22. I am using BerkeleyDB version
4.5. I've tested this installation using a simple script provided in the
BerkeleyDB documentation - it creates a database from the /etc/passwd file.
I believe the database code is working.
When I run saslpasswd2 it queries for a password verifies it and then
exits. There is no apparent error.
Nothing gets written to '/etc/sasldb2'. If I manually create the file it
remains empty. If I don't create it it's not created by the db routines.
In the 'auth.log' I consistently see the following for each invocation of
'saslpasswd2':
Jan 8 23:29:59 abcdef saslpasswd2: error closing sasldb: Invalid argument
Jan 8 23:29:59 abcdef saslpasswd2: error closing sasldb: Invalid argument
Jan 8 23:29:59 abcdef saslpasswd2: Setpass for OTP successful
Jan 8 23:29:59 abcdef saslpasswd2: error deleting entry from sasldb:
Invalid argument
Jan 8 23:29:59 abcdef saslpasswd2: error closing sasldb: Invalid argument
From this there appears to be no problem opening the database just
writing/flushing/closing the database file.
I am running all tests as 'root'.
I believe the SASL code is using the correct installed version of
BerkeleyDB. I see the following:
ldd libsasldb.so
linux-gate.so.1 => (0xffffe000)
libresolv.so.2 => /lib/libresolv.so.2 (0x40018000)
libdb-4.5.so => /usr/lib/libdb-4.5.so (0x4002c000) <=== this
is what I would expect
libc.so.6 => /lib/tls/libc.so.6 (0x40132000)
libpthread.so.0 => /lib/tls/libpthread.so.0 (0x40248000)
/lib/ld-linux.so.2 => /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x80000000)
I have plugins installed, as expected, in /usr/local/lib/sasl2. There is a
link with /usr/lib/sasl2. If I run the cyrus imap server and connect with
'imtest' I see the 'mechs' listed that I would expect.
I've added some additional debug statements to db_berkeley.c, especially in
the open routine, i.e. DB->set_errfile( ..). I've had no luck getting
additional error info from the app.
I'm running this on VIA chipset, x86 low-power box. I'm running SuSE linux,
version 9.2. ( I can provide more details if need be. )
At this point any help would be most appreciated.
( I did have all of this working on a different box about 3 years ago, very
different versions of all these pieces, so not a complete newbie.)
Thanks,
Cork
