Courier-imap amd maildrop failure on Suse 11 64-bit

[Rune]

Hi

Trying to install ISPConfig 3 on a freshly installed OpenSuse 11 64 bit machine and having the following problems

rpm --force -i maildrop-2.0.4-10.5.i586.rpm
warning: maildrop-2.0.4-10.5.i586.rpm: Header V3 DSA signature: NOKEY, key ID 6530cd38
error: Failed dependencies:
libcourierauth.so is needed by maildrop-2.0.4-10.5.i586

courier-authlib and libauthmysql are both installed


The other thing is that I cannot install courier-imap

Yast keeps telling me that it 'conflicts with imap provided by itself'

Tried uninstalling imap first, makes no difference


I'm thinking tht with maildrop maybe I need an x86_64 version but I can't think of annything to try regarding the imap problem

Can anyone help?

Hmm

49 views and no replies

It's looking like that's a no then


No matter, ISPConfig is just something I thought I'd take a look at as I had a fresh, clean Suse on the machine ready to move my server setup to a different box

I'll redo it fresh again and go back to the existing postfix/dovecot setup I have using the existing confs

Yes, you must use the x86_64 rpms on an x86_64 systems. The rpms for i686 won't work.

Cheers for confirming that falko

There were a few things I had already set up myself such as the dns server etc, and I also thought I might as well put Suse 11.1 on the machine rather than 11 as I have a dvd here from installing it on a different box, so I'm starting afresh

Are there any other issues I should be aware of when setting up ispconfig 3 on a 64 bit system?

I won't be following the instructions on the software packages to install to the letter this time, I think it will work better if I use Yast's software manager to install the packages before installing ispconfig itself

Not that I know, but I didn't try myself.

Installed Suse 11.1 x86_64 and started following the instructions in INSTALL_OPENSUSE_11_1.txt

Letting the Yast software manager gui find the the packages itself this time, all went ok, until .....

Solvable courier-imap-4.4.1.2.1.x86_64 conflicts with imap provided by itself

The only option offered to resolve the conflict is to not install courier-imap


Obviously this is a Suse issue rather than an ISPConfig one and I'm going to ask about it on their forum, but it would be good if anyone else that has come across this whilst trying to set up ispconfig on suse 11.1 64-bit and managed to solve it posts what they did to fix it

If I manage to solve it after asking on the opensuse forum I'll post it here in case anyone else comes across the same problem

Also I have been unable to find the getmail package for 64-bit suse 11.1 anywhere

Is this package absolutely necessary?

Can't say I've ever heard of it before, but from the name I guess it's something like fetchmail, could I just use that?


Scratch that, found the getmail site and got a getmail 4.9.0 tarball that works with all architectures and appears to have installed just fine

wget http://download.opensuse.org/reposit...6-1.4.i586.rpm

That line from the isconfig 3 instructions threw me a little as I was looking for an x86_64 rpm
