Installation error for dovecot

Hi guys while trying to install dovecot; the following error occurs, any ideas?



[root@mail ~]# rpm -ivh http://dl.atrpms.net/all/dovecot-1.2.16-1_114.fc13.x86_64.rpm
Retrieving http://dl.atrpms.net/all/dovecot-1.2.16-1_114.fc13.x86_64.rpm
warning: /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.je4mS8: Header V4 DSA/SHA1 Signature, key ID 66534c2b: NOKEY
error: Failed dependencies:
libpq.so.5()(64bit) is needed by dovecot-1:1.2.16-1_114.fc13.x86_64

 

Try:

Code:

yum update
yum clean all

and also try this:

I had that same error when I was following the fedora 14 with ispconfig 3 tutorial. I did a yum install libpqxx.x86_64 and that shut it up. After finishing the install, I was never able to get dovecot running without errors. I scrapped that project and just installed fedora 13 with ispconfig 3 and it runs great.

 

I ended up doing the same as you kevin186(Fedora 13 setup),,,it works fine with outlook express, office 2003, thunderbird, but office 2010 crashes as soon as I send receive.

Very strange.

 

Do you have an x86_64 or an i386 system? What's the output of

Code:

uname -a

?

 

Here is the reply:


Linux mail.mydomain.com 2.6.34.7-61.fc13.x86_64 #1 SMP Tue Oct 19 04:06:30 UTC 2010 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

 

it's a 64bit system, so that's ok. What's the output of

Code:

yum search libpq

?

 

Here is the output:





libpqxx-devel.i686 : Development tools for libpqxx
libpqxx-devel.x86_64 : Development tools for libpqxx
libpqxx.i686 : C++ client API for PostgreSQL

Try

Code:

yum install libpqxx libpqxx-devel

and then try to install dovecot again.

 

I retried my installation of fedora 14 with ispconfig 3 using this tip from falko and everything worked perfectly this time. Thanks.

 

I ended up using ubuntu 10.10 tutoria it works fine thanks.

 

I ended up using ubuntu 10.10, it worked thanks.

 

That fixed it for me - [root@webserver~]# yum search libpq - perfect!
