[SOLVED] dovecot 2.1.1-3 broken

First of all, some of my configs were .pacsaved, so I had to restore them. But when I did I got this error:
doveconf: Fatal: Error in configuration file /etc/dovecot/conf.d/10-auth.conf line 121: No matches
Line 121 on 10-auth.conf is:
!include auth-system.conf.ext
For now I have re-installed 2.1.1-2 and everything seems to be OK.

Not sure what are you referring to, have you read the commit message: http://projects.archlinux.org/svntogit/ … 5ce6d9e285
don't install sample config files to /etc direclty, they break dovecot start way too often

[SOLVED] mysql-5.0.24-2 broken?

After upgrading to mysql-5.0.24-2 i've noticed that my site can't connect to mysql db and phpmyadmin says that php mysql.so module isn't loaded. I've checked configs and everything were ok, then i tried to "downgrade" mysql to mysql-5.0.24-1 and problem solved, just to be sure i upgraded mysql again and encountered same problem, so i'm running mysql-5.0.24-1 now. I think mysql-5.0.24-2 package is broken, anybody can confirm this?
EDIT: Seems mysql-5.0.24-2 doesn't have mysql executable
[root@host pkg]# mysql
-bash: /usr/bin/mysql: No such file or directory

Install mysql-clients and libmysqlclient. My guess is that you either didn't install it with a forced upgrade (-d option), or that pacman didn't like the files being on your system and decided to eat it for breakfast.

[SOLVED]Gnome 3.10 Icons are broken

I upgraded earlier to Gnome 3.10. Although I've had a lot of problems.. I'm working on them one at a time.
Most of the default icons are not showing anymore. My Nautilus looks like this:
Some of the applications icons do still exist.
If I create a new user and log in, the icons are all fine. But I cannot figure out how to bring back icons on my own user account.
I tried running the command on http://askubuntu.com/questions/56313/ho … e-defaults, which set my favourites and wallpaper back to default. Icons still aren't fixed.
I tried running gtk-update-icon-cache on my icons folder. Tried running xdg-user-dirs-update. Tried sudo pacman -S $(pacman -Ssq gnome-icon-theme). Tried running /usr/bin/gdk-pixbuf-query-loaders --update-cache and tried reinstalling librsvg. None of these have helped.
Thanks.

Not solved for me I'm afraid. I'm running Openbox + Tint2 setup, with quite a few Gnome applications. I use the Oxygen icon theme.
Since the upgrade to the Gnome 3.10 packages, my GTK3 applications have missing icons which only reappear if I choose the GNOME icon theme using lxappearance, which modifies ~/.config/gtk-3.0/settings.ini. Here's my normal settings.ini:
[Settings]
gtk-theme-name=Clearlooks-Phenix
gtk-icon-theme-name=oxygen
gtk-font-name=Arimo 9
gtk-cursor-theme-name=aero-drop
gtk-cursor-theme-size=0
gtk-toolbar-style=GTK_TOOLBAR_BOTH_HORIZ
gtk-toolbar-icon-size=GTK_ICON_SIZE_MENU
gtk-button-images=1
gtk-menu-images=1
gtk-enable-event-sounds=1
gtk-enable-input-feedback-sounds=1
gtk-xft-antialias=1
gtk-xft-hinting=1
gtk-xft-hintstyle=hintfull
gtk-xft-rgba=rgb
When 'gtk-icon-theme-name=gnome' is used instead, the icons display in GTK3 applications.
Any ideas please how I can get the Oxygen theme to play nicely with Gnome 3.10 applications?

fixed. I was pointing to the incorrect ssl_cert.

[solved] dovecot errors after renewing SSL certificate

System:
OS X Server (Mountain Lion) 2.2
Using a single SSL Certificate for all services.
Symptom:
Users can't log into their IMAP accounts hosted on OS X Server (Mountain Lion) after renewing SSL Certificate
Diagnostics:
Give you an indication whether it's this problem. Some or all may apply:
Log shows all kinds of dovecot errors. e.g.
dovecotd[nnn]: master: Error: service(config): command startup failed, throttling
config: Fatal: Error in configuration file /Library/Server/Mail/Config/dovecot/dovecot.conf: ssl enabled, but ssl_cert not set
dovecotd[nnn]: master: Error: service(config): command startup failed, throttling
/Library/Server/Mail/Config/dovecot/conf.d/10-ssl.conf shows commented out lines:
ssl_cert
ssl_key
ssl_ca
Solution:
Go to the Certificates pane of the Server App and choose Secure Services Using: Custom
Set IMAP and POP server certificates to to None
Keep an eye on what the server App is doing to /Library/Server/Mail/Config/dovecot/conf.d/10-ssl.conf
Now set Secure Services Using: <My single SSL Certificate for all services>
Keep an eye on what the server App is doing to /Library/Server/Mail/Config/dovecot/conf.d/10-ssl.conf and you should now see all the ssl* settings as you would expect, and pointing to the correct SSL certificate in /etc/certificates
Hope this works for you too!

I had something similar happen. When I do anything with SSL certificates it deletes any regular websites. Only the sites that are setup for https are listed.
Couldn't understand why my website wasn't working and it turned out that the system had deleted it. The web server had multiple host set and I had to rebuild all the ones that had used port 80. All the ones that use 443 were fine.
Hope this helps.

[Solved] Dovecot imap-login fails

I have been working on this for hours and I have little idea what is wrong. I have dovecot setup to authenticate via PAM. I am sure that the PAM authentication is correct as a wrong password returns a bad auth error. However, when the initial authentication happens it feels like PAM isn't returning my UID.

ok, what a pain, login is CASE-SENSITIVE ! So take care what username you take!

[SOLVED] recent update seems to have broken my keyboard

hi guys.
i've just turned on my arch 64 system after updating last night (or possibly the day before...) and when i get to the gdm login the keyboard doesnt work. I can confirm the problem is not with the keyboard itself as i can still edit the boot options in grub. anyone else have this or have i broken something...
thanks in advance,
david
(edit: on screen keyboard doesnt seem to be working either)

I could be wrong, but my understanding is hal would be needed as soon as X starts - so yes it could affect login with gdm. That would also fit with it not working in slim or starting xterm.
If you're pretty sure it's related to the updates it might be helpful to post the parts of pacman.log that are relevant so we can see what exactly got updated.

Welcome to Arch Linux. To be honest, this thread is a bit of a mess. As Karol and Jellicent have indicated, we have standards for posting large blocks of text output. We also expect these forums to be in English. Please clean up your first post and provide translations. I understand that English is probably not your native language. You might want to post a thread in your native language on the "Other Languages" portion of our site.
Thanks.
Just like you said，i‘m sorry to that，I 'll take your advice.As you can see,"in your native language on the "Other Languages" portion of our site",that is slow to take my problem.When i read a thread https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=1346506 ,i try to solve it.
Thanks a lot.
Oh

[SOLVED] GLIBC_2.16 not found - Pacman broken

Hi all,
I did a packman -Syu yesterday and following instructions relative to glib errors I also performed it by excluding glibc.
This resulting in the problem that now I have old GLIBC ( so I don't have simlink of lib).
After rebooting my system was unable to boot anymore, I did a chroot and a mkinitcpio -p linux and now I can boot the system.
The main problem is that I can't use pacman and a lot of stuff (samba service, firefox, and so on) due to this error:
pacman: /lib/libc.so.6: version 'GLIBC_2.16' not found (required by /lib/libarchive.so.12)
Before opening this new thread I did a lot of searching and I tried I think almost all solutions I've found.
I already tried to use pacman cache for replacing libs, I already tried to downgrade curl...
Any help is very very very appreciated, It's a workstation I'm using for CFD computation in my lab and I'm totally blocked!!! (I mean, CFD works at least )
Thanks in advance, guys.

https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/De … iki:usrlib
Try this from a chroot : pacman -U http://pkgbuild.com/~allan/glibc-2.16.0 … pkg.tar.xz
If that fails, try extracting the 2.16.0-1 tarball to / (and don't forget to reinstall glibc after you've solved the problem) .

[SOLVED] Dovecot Systemd Service Fails

Hello all, I can't find the reason for why my dovecot fails. My journalctl doesn't provide output for the PID I give it.
$ systemctl status dovecot.service

Thank you for the help.
========================
EDIT:
ran the process described above: dovecot -F which gave me the dovecot error message. I had a misconfigured file (spelling mistake).
Thanks for the help!

Thank you for your suggestion. Unfortunately it does not work. Out of 4 boots, 3 time I ended up with blank screen. Interestingly, in the last boot I was able to switch to tty1 just after screen went blank and managed to log in to tty. I've restarted the kdm.service then manually in hope the image will be restored, but it wasn't. The restart of kdm then made the screen totally blank and I was unable to switch to tty anymore.
Is it possible that radeon module in kernel has some slow initialization procedure and if X requires its services before it is properly initialized it ends up with blank screen?

[SOLVED] Cinnamon - network settings kind of broken

Hey,
after the last huge update -everything went fine- my network setting seem to be broken, although I'm online. When clicking "Network" in Cinnamon's system systems or right clicking on the NetworkManager applet and selecting "Network Settings" an additional popup appears saying:
The system network services are not compatible with this version.
I can simply close it and then look at my network setting, but the interface doesn't show up anymore.
I have no clue how to fix this, here are some information:
[klemens@arch-pc ~]$ psl network manager
local/libnm-glib 1.0.0-1
NetworkManager library
local/libnm-gtk 1.0.0-1

link/ether e0:56:88:41:77:e6 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
As already mentioned, my internet connection works fine, it's just not configurable through cinnamon anymore. Is anyone experiencing similar behaviour?
Last edited by klenamenis (2015-02-10 00:02:29)

yup seems to be a version issue. There is some version check in cinnamon-control-center
https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=192939
Although I can still edit network connections. Clicking on the network Manager applet has to options at the bottom "Network Setting" (doesn't work) and "Network Connections" which shows another dialog to edit connections this one works. It might that it comes with the network-manager-applet package. If so this might be a workaround until the version check in the control center gets fixed upstream.
Another solution would be to apply the patch proposed in the thread I linked but I didn't try that.

[SOLVED]Uefi + kms = garbled display, X broken.

I've been trying to get my new system up and running, it being new, I opted for an 'uefi-mode'-install.
My system is now configured, that rEFInd is run on startup, and from there I can select my kernel and boot it up (via efistub).
This works just fine, except that I have to disable KMS, or else I will get a blank screen(some flashing text is faintly visible on the top line of the display during boot).
If I configure X to automatically start, I get a totally garbled display(very pink). Depending on the combination of kernel options(passed via efistub) the screen also flashes.
Providing nomodeset solves the problem to a somewhat dis-satisfactory degree, as then the video driver refuses to work for X. I must force the use of the vesa driver, which sucks.
So,
freshly installed system(09.08.12), kernel 3.4, the radeon driver(xf86-video-ati). my card is a radeon 6850hd (northen island,barts I think).
Options and effects:
I always pass add_efi_memmap
video=efifb:off -> no flicker/flashing, display still unusable.
video=radeondrmfb -> flickering/flashing, kernel log reports "fb: conflicting fb hw usage radeondrmfb vs EFI VGA - removing generic driver"
nomodeset -> display works fine, display mode is that of uefi(my case 1024x768), native mode would be 1280x1024. X fails, force vesa as a workaround.
radeon.modeset=0 -> same as above.
I think this may be a big fat bug
Any Ideas?
EDIT:
I've upgraded to 3.5.1-1-ARCH from testing, and the problem still persists. I'm now trying 3.6-rc1 but thats just freezing at boot atm.
UPDATE:
I found this pull request and today tried 3.6.0-rc3 straight form kernel.org
I can now startx with the radeon driver, and have full direct rendering and no distortions. I sadly get no output to the console during boot, the screen just turns off.
I'm marking this as solved, because I think this could just be down do misconfiguration in the kernel.

I had a similar sort of problem and used the following:
sleep 1 && xset dpms force off
That may or may not work for you...
It doesn't work for me - it immediately turns on again.
But the problem is not that I can't force the display to turn off, but that it will *never* turn off automatically to save power when not used.

[Solved] Dovecot Sieve Not Working

I am moving my server from Ubuntu to Arch. On Ubuntu I had sieve working fine with Dovecot. However, in arch mail doesn't seem to be getting processed by sieve. Here are the relevant settings from my dovecot.conf:
protocol lda {
postmaster_address = [email protected]
hostname = wilkesley.org
sendmail_path = /usr/sbin/sendmail
mail_plugins = $mail_plugins sieve
sieve_dir = ~/
plugin {
sieve_global_path = /home/vmail/globalsieverc
I have a .dovecot-sieve in my home directory. I am not getting any errors in the logs or any entries .dovecot.sieve.log. So what am I doing wrong?

Thanks I had already got pigeonhole installed. I have read the wiki several times and now have:
protocols = imap sieve
protocol lda {
postmaster_address = [email protected]
hostname = wilkesley.org
sendmail_path = /usr/sbin/sendmail
mail_plugins = $mail_plugins sieve
protocol sieve {
# Nothing here because the defaults should be OK.
plugin {
sieve = ~/.dovecot.sieve
sieve_global_path = /home/vmail/globalsieverc
sieve_dir = ~/
I have created the sieve dir in the virtual users folder. However sieve doesn't appear to be working.
I have tried logging in manually to see if sieve is running, but get the following error:
ian:~/ $ gnutls-cli --starttls -p 143 mail2.wilkesley.net [8:32:22]
Resolving 'mail2.wilkesley.net'...
Connecting to '127.0.0.1:143'...
- Simple Client Mode:
* OK [CAPABILITY IMAP4rev1 LITERAL+ SASL-IR LOGIN-REFERRALS ID ENABLE IDLE STARTTLS AUTH=PLAIN] Dovecot ready.
STARTTLS
STARTTLS BAD Error in IMAP command received by server.
According to the Dovecot wiki this should reply with the capabilities of my server, Note the server sends and receives mail OK using starttls.
