Cyrus-imapd-2.2.9 . Configuration problems with Berkeley DB

[Albert Vila]

Hello to all!

I've spent too much hours with this problem, and I still don't know exactcly
the reason why it doesn't work.

 

I try to install a mail system with Postfix and Cyrus on a Debian ,
following the next howto:
http://www.delouw.ch/linux/Postfix-Cyrus-Web-cyradm-HOWTO/html/ (as I see,
many other people had used it, and it seems quite simple and complete). I
prefer to follow the howto, compiling much of the sources, instead of using
"apt-get", really easier, because I should like to understand what happens
exactly into the system, in order to maintain it better.

 

According to the manual, the needed steps are the following:

 

1)       I've installed BerkeleyDB (both 4.3.29 and 4.1.25 versions, as
somebody suggested here:
http://www.web-cyradm.org/pipermail/web-cyradm/2005-June/018726.html) 

2)       I've installed OpenSSL (version 0.9.8a) also (it seems there is no
problem with this package)

3)       I've installed Cyrus-SASL (version 2.1.21), and, after fixing some
errors, it seems it's all ok too

4)       And the next step is trying to install Cyrus-imapd-2.2.9.

 

I try to configure it with the command:

"./configure --with-sasl=/usr/local/lib --with-perl --with-auth=unix
--with-dbdir=/usr/local/berk41 --with-bdb-libdir=/usr/local/berk41/lib
--with-bdb-libinc=/usr/local/berk41/include --with-openssl=/usr/local/ssl
--without-ucdsnmp"

 

"/usr/local/berk41" is the path for the Berkeley4.1.25 installation. The
same somedody than before suggested also that Cyrus doesn't work properly
with the newest versions of BerkeleyDB, so I decided to use this version for
my purposes.

 

And I get this error:

 

mymachine:/usr/instalables_mail/cyrus-imapd-2.2.9# ./configure
--with-sasl=/usr/local/lib --with-perl --with-auth=unix
--with-dbdir=/usr/local/berk41 --with-bdb-libdir=/usr/local/berk41/lib
--with-bdb-libinc=/usr/local/berk41/include --with-openssl=/usr/local/ssl
--without-ucdsnmp

configure: error: Berkeley DB 3.x or later was not found.  You may need to

    supply the --with-bdb-libdir or --with-bdb-incdir configure options.

 

I really don't know what happens. I've checked db.h and all seems ok. and in
both paths (libdir and incdir) there are the correct files that it is
supposed the configure command are looking for.

 

If anybody have an idea for this problem, please tell me.

 

Thank you very much in advance!

 

Best regards,

Albert
