Cyrus Imap Authentication Problems

[evildad]

HI there, 
i'd like to set-up an working IMAP Server on my Gentoo
System. I used the Postfix-Cyrus-Web-cyradm-HOWTO from
http://www.delouw.ch/linux/Postfix-Cyrus-Web-cyradm-HOWTO/html/index.html

Because I use Gentoo, I compiled all the packages
with the „emerge“ command. Here are the versions for
my installed packages:

cyrus-sasl-2.1.21-r1  
cyrus-imapd-2.2.12  
postfix-2.1.5-r2  
pam_mysql-0.6.0  
mysql-4.0.25-r2 
web-cyradm-0.5.4.1 


They all compiled without errors but after i wanted to
create the user cyrus with the command

# saslpasswd2 -c cyrus
Password:
Again (for verification):


... the following errors appear in /var/log/messages:

Sep 25 17:21:01 evildad saslpasswd2: sql_select option
missing
Sep 25 17:21:01 evildad saslpasswd2: auxpropfunc error
no mechanism available
Sep 25 17:21:01 evildad saslpasswd2: _sasl_plugin_load
failed on sasl_auxprop_plug_init for plugin: sql
Sep 25 17:21:05 evildad saslpasswd2: setpass succeeded
for cyrus
Sep 25 17:21:05 evildad saslpasswd2: error deleting
entry from sasldb: DB_NOTFOUND: No matching key/data
pair found
Sep 25 17:21:05 evildad saslpasswd2: error deleting
entry from sasldb: DB_NOTFOUND: No matching key/data
pair found
Sep 25 17:21:05 evildad saslpasswd2: error deleting
entry from sasldb: DB_NOTFOUND: No matching key/data
pair found


I don't understand why sasl won't find the DB. 

Another Problem is the command to connect to the
Server.

When i type in the following command to the Server I
get the following output:

# cyradm --user cyrus --server localhost --auth plain
Password:
IMAP Password:
              Login failed: authentication failure at
/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.6/x86_64-linux/Cyrus/IMAP/Admin.pm
line 118
cyradm: cannot authenticate to server with plain as
cyrus


and in /var/log/messages:

Sep 25 21:18:26 evildad master[7102]: about to exec

Hope anyone can help me to get the authentication
work...
And i don't know why the User account has been expired
though it has never worked before...

Thanks in advance, 
Evildad
