Hi there,
At first sorry for my bad english.
I’m despaired. Flog me, because the problem I’m posting here is to be found apparently 1000 time in this forum.
But I am now for 2 days continuously trying to fix this problem!
It’s about saslauthd. After an upgrade from Debian sarge to etch it did not run any longer.
I have searched what to do and different proposals for solution I tried, which makes sense in the first moment. But nothing helps.
I saw some similar Problems in this Forum, so I hope you can help me.
The following error message appears, if I register in /etc/default/sasl the value OPTIONS= " - m /var/run/saslauthd -c":
In the shell:
Code:
# /etc/init.d/saslauthd start
Starting SASL Authentication Daemon: saslauthdsaslauthd[10700] :detach_tty : Cannot start saslauthd
saslauthd[10700] :detach_tty : could not read from startup_pipe
failed!
In auth.log:
Code:
May 10 16:12:12 hanno saslauthd[10459]: detach_tty : could not read from startup_pipe
May 10 16:12:12 hanno saslauthd[10459]: detach_tty : Cannot start saslauthd
May 10 16:12:12 hanno saslauthd[10460]: ipc_init : bind: Address already in use
May 10 16:12:12 hanno saslauthd[10460]: ipc_init : could not bind to socket: /var/run/saslauthd/mux
May 10 16:12:12 hanno saslauthd[10460]: detach_tty : master pid is: 10839
Im Verzeichnis /var/run/saslauthd/ gibt es dann auch eine Datei saslauthd.pid, Inhalt: 10839.
ps aux sagt allerdings, dass kein entsprechender Prozess läuft:
Code:
# ps aux|grep sasl
root 10915 0.0 0.0 1776 600 pts/0 R+ 16:26 0:00 grep sasl
# ps aux|grep 10839
root 10927 0.0 0.0 1776 604 pts/0 R+ 16:26 0:00 grep 10839
In the directory /var/run/saslauthd/ is also a file saslauthd.pid, with content: 10839.
ps aux says however that no appropriate process runs:
Code:
# ps aux|grep sasl
root 10915 0,0,0,0 1776 600 pts/0 R+ 16:26 0:00 grep sasl
# ps aux|grep 10839
root 10927 0,0,0,0 1776 604 pts/0 R+ 16:26 0:00 grep 10839
I cannot explain myself, what is to be bound to the address.
If I change the path on /var/spool/postfix/var/run/saslauthd and let postfix run in chroot'ed mode, it does not solve the problem also.
Does someone have an idea, where the problem is?
Fitti, gratefully for every idea
