SOLVED [CPANEL-23589] - Updates to v76 can break dovecot if the configuration is customized

[cPanelLauren]

Hello All,

In v76 we found that updates can break dovecot if the configuration is customized. This includes customizations done in supported manner using our configuration templating system. This has resulted in

/usr/local/cpanel/bin/dovecot-auth

being removed causing login failure on mail clients as well as webmail.

The only current known workaround is to do the following:

Move/Rename

/var/cpanel/templates/dovecot2.2/main.local

then run

/scripts/builddovecotconf

and restart dovecot by running the following:

/scripts/restartsrv_dovecot

We'll update this thread with more information and the status of the case when available.

Thanks!

Have not seen this yet, but definitely good to know!

Hello,

This is solved in 76.0.2:

Fixed case CPANEL-23589: Invalidate local dovecot configs containing references to the deprecated dovecot-wrap binary.

Thanks!
