Dovecot v2.2.6 released
I didn't have time to look into the latest reported dsync replication bugs, but this release should have been done a long time ago already and I'm busy for next few days, so no more waiting. Things seem to be working quite well in general though.

* acl: If public/shared namespace has a shared subscriptions file for
all users, don't list subscription entries that are not visible to
the user accessing it.

+ doveadm: Added "auth lookup" command for doing passdb lookup.
+ login_log_format_elements: Added %{orig_user}, %{orig_username}
and %{orig_domain} expanding to the username exactly as sent by
the client (before any changes auth process made).
+ Added ssl_prefer_server_ciphers setting.
+ auth_verbose_passwords: Log the password also for unknown users.
+ Linux: Added optional support for SO_REUSEPORT with
inet_listener { reuse_port=yes }
- director: v2.2.5 changes caused "SYNC lost" errors
- dsync: Many fixes and error handling improvements
- doveadm -A: Don't waste CPU by doing a separate config lookup
for each user
- Long-running ssl-params process no longer prevents Dovecot restart
- mbox: Fixed mailbox_list_index=yes to work correctly
 
there is some problem with the configure
Patching syslog with LOG_PID ...
Configuring dovecot 2.2.6 ...
checking for a BSD-compatible install... /usr/bin/install -c
checking whether build environment is sane... yes

Updated, works fine!

The only change needed was replacing ssl_cert_file with ssl_cert in config file.

Code:
Latest version of dovecot: 2.2.6
Installed version of dovecot: 2.2.6

In /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf
I had these lines
HTML:
ssl_cert_file = /etc/exim.cert
ssl_key_file = /etc/exim.key

Changed to
HTML:
ssl_cert = /etc/exim.cert
ssl_key = /etc/exim.key
 
In /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf

I already have that, did you upgrade from dovecot 1.x or something?
 
Then you must have had outdated old dovecot.conf file. I just checked one of my servers wich is running Dovecot 2.2.4, and it has the correct "ssl_cert" and "ssl_key" in it. I also checked dovecot.conf in version 2.2.6 on a server I just upgraded, and it was the same with noe difference. So that you needed to change what you say in dovecot.conf, does not have anything to do with changes in the latest version of Dovecot, because it was not changed in recent versions.
 
Can anyone tell me if you have this problem.

Debian 6

Try stopping Dovecot in DA = Error;
Try starting Dovecot in DA = Error;
Try restarting Dovecot in DA = Error;

Try stop/start/restarting Dovecot via shell = Success;

This happens in every version I had.
 
it can be if some pids are still alive,
try to reboot your server or buy see if pids still running

If they are, won't restarting from shell also error?

try to reboot your server
Why is a reboot everyone's answer to everything? Not to mention unfeasible on a server with clients, plus all the HDD/etc check on boot - this is why I only reboot when really necessary i.e kernal updates.
