I found an issue that I am struggling to find an answer for. I am getting this error: Code: Jun 12 10:03:48 vds1 dovecot: imap(webmaster@<mydomainname>.com.au): Error: net_connect_unix(/var/run/dovecot/dict) failed: Permission denied (euid=97(dovecot) egid=89(postfix) missing +r perm: /var/run/dovecot/dict, euid is not dir owner) Jun 12 10:03:48 vds1 dovecot: imap(webmaster@<mydomainname>.com.au): Error: Internal quota calculation error I can chown the file /var/run/dovecot/dict to dovecot, however when I restart dovecot, it reverts back to root as the owner. If I don't restart dovecot, everything works well, I am guessing this is still a config issue here. I am chowning and not restarting for now, but will keep looking for a proper solution. Any ideas out there?
I know this is old but I just found it via google so posting here to help anyone else that may come across it. The solution is to set unix_listener in PHP: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf as follows: PHP: service dict { unix_listener dict { mode = 0660 user = mail group = mail } } Changing permissions to match so for example Kafmil's would be PHP: service dict { unix_listener dict { mode = 0660 user = dovecot group = postfix } } As the error log tells us that's who is running the dict. Thanks
