I'm tying to configure cyrus-imap on a Fedora 17 system. cyrus-imapd version cyrus-imapd.i686 2.4.14-1.fc17 I have sendmail and saslauthd working using DIGEST-MD5 and CRAM-MD5 working. I have gone through the cyrus-imap configuration procedure, but when I try to start the server: # systemctl start cyrus-imapd.service Job failed. See system journal and 'systemctl status' for details. # systemctl status cyrus-imapd.service cyrus-imapd.service - Cyrus-imapd IMAP/POP3 email server Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/cyrus-imapd.service; disabled) Active: failed (Result: exit-code) since Sat, 19 Jan 2013 13:29:32 +0000; 28s ago Process: 2049 ExecStartPre=/usr/lib/cyrus-imapd/cyr_systemd_helper start (code=exited, status=75) CGroup: name=systemd:/system/cyrus-imapd.service If I start the master process manually or in debug mode: # /usr/lib/cyrus-imapd/cyrus-master -D (or -d) fatal error: can't read mailboxes file ctl_cyrusdb: unable to archive environment At this point ps -A reports: cyrus-master imapd <defunct> imapd pop3 <defunct> pop3d lmtpd Top reports imapd & pop3d are sporning and are being zombied at a rate of about 1 second! Surely this is not right? Looks like the deamons are crashing imediately! Telnet seems to connect, but there is NO imap OK .. Ready response: $ telnet localhost 143 (or 993) Trying ::1... Connected to localhost. Escape character is '^]'. The telnet connection must then be killed. Similarly if I run imtest or cyradm both just hang. Am I doing something wrong?
