Hello,

Try this:

./build todovecot

and then restart dovecot, exim and directadmin.

The issue with dovecot is not a reason to format HDD and reinstall the OS. Try again:

cd /usr/local/directadmin/custombuild
./build update
./build dovecot
./build todovecot

and make sure no error occured and build process of dovecot succeed. Probably you've got a error.

Then edit /usr/local/directadmin/data/admin/services.status and remove line with vm-pop3d from the file, and add there line (make sure the file has an empty line in the very bottom):

dovecot=ON

restart directadmin, and dovecot:

/etc/init.d/directadmin restart
/etc/init.d/dovecot restart
/etc/init.d/[FONT=Verdana]vm-pop3d stop[/FONT][FONT=Verdana]

[/FONT]

same thing.

 

[zx-75]

[name@server ~]# /etc/init.d/vm-pop3d stop
-bash: /etc/init.d/vm-pop3d: No such file or directory
[name@server ~]#

but in system information its showing and telling ***stopped***

Then edit /usr/local/directadmin/data/admin/services.status and remove line with vm-pop3d from the file and save it. Restart directadmin.

nothing working.

Well, very confusing statement that is. That should work if you'd follow posted above instructions and did not drop any step.
