Hi, I'm using cyrus-sasl-2.1.22 and cyrus-imap-2.2.12 on two Slackware boxes. On one system everything is fine, everything works like it should be, but on the other system cyradm is not working at all. When I try to login with: #cyradm --user cyrus --server localhost --auth login this error appears: Can't load '/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8/i486-linux/auto/Cyrus/IMAP/IMAP.so' for module Cyrus::IMAP: /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8/i486-linux/auto/Cyrus/IMAP/IMAP.so: undefined symbol: db_version at /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.8/i486-linux/DynaLoader.pm line 230. at /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8/i486-linux/Cyrus/IMAP/Admin.pm line 44 Compilation failed in require at /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8/i486-linux/Cyrus/IMAP/Admin.pm line 44.

Escape character is '^]'. * OK Fax Cyrus IMAP4 v2.2.12 server ready . logout * BYE LOGOUT received . OK Completed Connection closed by foreign host. I know this error is "well known" and I spent much time to solve the problem but I didn't. On my other box I solved this problem with installing the BerkeleyDB-4.4. As I understand the error, the "undefined symbol: db_version at /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.8/i486-linux/DynaLoader.pm line 230." is the problem. This problem, I've located, belongs to BerkeleyDB - Am I right? Or is perl the problem? I've no more idea... What I did: installed BerkeleyDB-4.4 from source: ../build_unix/configure && make && make install ALL OK compiled cyrus-sasl: #./configure --enable-plain --enable-login --enable-cram --enable-digest --enable-sql --with-mysql=/usr/local/mysql --with-openssl=/usr/local/ssl --with-dblib=berkeley --with-bdb-libdir=/usr/local/BerkeleyDB.4.4/lib --with-bdb-incdir=/usr/local/BerkeleyDB.4.4/include #make && make install ALL OK #saslpasswd2 -c cyrus Password: Again (for verification): ALL OK compiled cyrus-imapd: #./configure --with-auth=unix --with-sasl=/usr/lib/sasl2 --with-openssl=/usr/local/ssl --with-dblib=berkeley --with-bdb-libdir=/usr/local/BerkeleyDB.4.4/lib --with-bdb-incdir=/usr/local/BerkeleyDB.4.4/include #make && make install ALL OK #cd src/cyrus_imap/tools #su cyrus #./mkimap reading configure file... i will configure directory /var/imap. i saw partition /var/spool/imap. done configuring /var/imap... creating /var/spool/imap... done #perl -MCPAN -eshell #>install IMAP::Admin #>installed OK #cd /src/cyrus_imap/perl/imap #su cyrus #perl Makefile.PL Checking if your kit is complete...

Is anybody able to help me solving this cyrus-imap/cyradm/berkeley problem?
