[gentoo-user] Courier-imap won't start after system & world rebuild

[John J. Foster]

Good evening all,

3 days ago I rebuilt my system to use gcc-3.4.4-r1. I first used
gcc-config to change to the new compiler, and then ran emerge -aev system,
followed by emerge -aev world. All went extremely well, I thought. Today
I noticed that courier-imap has failed to start. (The only reason I knew 
was because my wife uses this box to store her sent mail for backup 
purposes, and wwas getting connection errors) Trying to start it manually 
yields:

//garbanzo/root #  /etc/init.d/courier-imapd-ssl start
 * Starting courier-imapd over SSL ...                      * [ !! ]

No log entries are generated that I can find. I compared config files in
/etc/courier and /etc/courier-imap with archived copies. They're the
same.

The following packages have been emerged since upgrading.

     Wed Dec 21 18:33:07 2005 >>> dev-util/xdelta-1.1.3
     Wed Dec 21 21:18:44 2005 >>> sys-process/lsof-4.75
     Thu Dec 22 14:02:01 2005 >>> app-admin/showconsole-1.07
     Thu Dec 22 14:05:38 2005 >>> sys-apps/baselayout-1.12.0_pre12
     Fri Dec 23 09:03:30 2005 >>> sys-apps/findutils-4.1.20-r2
     Fri Dec 23 09:21:37 2005 >>> net-mail/courier-imap-4.0.1

I'm not sure whether courier-imap started after the upgrade, or one of 
these have caused my problems.

Does anyone have any ideas?

Thanks,
John
