This is the sql-Auxprop-Plugin. It can be build with mysql, pgsql and 
sqlite-Support. The Default is mysql. If you don't set the "sql_engine" 
Option, it defaults to "mysql". Your Logs say, mysql is configured (maybe as 
the default-setting of "sql_engine"), but not build in.

If you don't want to use the sql-Plugin, why did you install it?

Remove it, either the Package or the libsql.* from sasl_plugindir. This 
depends on the Package-Management of your Distribution.
