seg fault on startup of ctl_cyrusdb

[Robert Van Horn]

I have not been able to get the master process to stay running.
This is from /var/log/imapd.log

Jan 18 22:34:40 workin1 master[30545]: setrlimit: Unable to set file

ion not permitted

Jan 18 22:34:40 workin1 master[30545]: process 30546 exited, status 127

Debian linux with a 2.4 smp kernel.
cyrus-imapd-2.2.3, or cyrus-imapd-2.1.16
db-4.2.52
cyrus-sasl-2.1.17
openssl-0.9.7c
all but the kernel were built and installed many different times
and ways - none worked. I am also unable to get saslpasswd2 to
enter any users into /etc/sasldb2. Just says generic failure.
Sort of how I feel right now...

TIA for any assistance   bob         vhs at flexdesign.com
