I ran Custombuild and updated Exim and Dovecot this week, now mail is not being delivered.

At first I was getting the message

Failed to connect to socket /var/run/dovecot/lmtp for dovecot_lmtp_udp

After searching the forums, I found the suggestion to run

./build dovecot_conf

to address this issue. I ran it. No joy.

Now the error is

dovecot_lmtp_udp defer (-1): LMTP connection closed after initial connection

Currently running Exim 4.8.6 and Dovecot 2.2.19

Ideas?

-t
 
Hello,

Try:

Code:
cd /usr/local/directadmin/custombuild
./build update
./build exim
./build exim_conf
mv /etc/dovecot /etc/dovecot~moved 
./build dovecot
./build dovecot_conf
 
Didn't help. The error is still

T=dovecot_lmtp_udp defer (-1): LMTP connection closed after initial connection
 
What do you see with

Code:
ls -la /var/run/dovecot/lmtp

Code:
ps aux | grep lmtp | grep -v grep
?
 
Not running it appears...

[root@sys2 ~]# ls -la /var/run/dovecot/lmtp
srw-rw-rw- 1 root root 0 Oct 17 10:25 /var/run/dovecot/lmtp
[root@sys2 ~]# ps aux | grep lmtp | grep -v grep
[root@sys2 ~]#
 
The log file /var/log/dovecot-lmtp-errors.log

Shows:

Oct 19 10:37:27 lmtp(3591): Fatal: Couldn't load required plugin /usr/lib/dovecot/libssl_iostream_openssl.so: dlopen() failed: /usr/lib/dovecot/libssl_iostream_openssl.so: undefined symbol: SSL_clear_options

Is this a link error with Dovecot?

What OS and what version of OpenSSL do you use?
 
Following your direction I updated OpenSSL and rebuilt everything.

It's all working now.

Thanks for your help!
