cyradm undefined symbol: db_version

[Andi Voss]

Hi,

I'm using cyrus-sasl-2.1.22 and cyrus-imap-2.2.12 on two Slackware boxes.
On one system everything is fine, everything works like it should be, but
on the other system cyradm is not working at all. When I try to login
with: #cyradm --user cyrus --server localhost --auth login
this error appears:

Can't load
'/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8/i486-linux/auto/Cyrus/IMAP/IMAP.so' for
module Cyrus::IMAP:

login to imap is working:
telnet localhost imap

I know this error is "well known" and I spent much time to solve the
problem but I didn't. On my other box I solved this problem with
installing the BerkeleyDB-4.4.
As I understand the error, the "undefined symbol: db_version at
/usr/lib/perl5/5.8.8/i486-linux/DynaLoader.pm line 230." is the problem.
This problem, I've located, belongs to BerkeleyDB - Am I right?
Or is perl the problem? I've no more idea...

What I did:
installed BerkeleyDB-4.4 from source:
../build_unix/configure && make && make install
ALL OK

compiled cyrus-sasl:
#./configure --enable-plain --enable-login --enable-cram --enable-digest
--enable-sql --with-mysql=/usr/local/mysql --with-openssl=/usr/local/ssl
--with-dblib=berkeley --with-bdb-libdir=/usr/local/BerkeleyDB.4.4/lib
--with-bdb-incdir=/usr/local/BerkeleyDB.4.4/include
#make && make install
ALL OK

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

compiled cyrus-imapd:
#./configure --with-auth=unix --with-sasl=/usr/lib/sasl2
--with-openssl=/usr/local/ssl --with-dblib=berkeley
--with-bdb-libdir=/usr/local/BerkeleyDB.4.4/lib
--with-bdb-incdir=/usr/local/BerkeleyDB.4.4/include
#make && make install
ALL OK

#cd src/cyrus_imap/tools
#su cyrus
#./mkimap

i will configure directory /var/imap.

Looks good
Writing Makefile for Cyrus::IMAP
#make && make install

I upgraded and reinstalled perl (now 5.8.8 binary from slackware).

#ldd /usr/cyrus/bin/master

#ls -l /lib/libdb.so
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 12 2006-10-05 17:26 /lib/libdb.so -> libdb-3.1.so

The only thing which is different on the two systems is that ldd contains
linux-gate.so.1 =>  (0xffffe000) in the system where it is not working.
linux-gate.so.1 tells that a file is not found by that name, but not which
file.

Perhaps this is the problem?
Is anybody able to help me solving this cyrus-imap/cyradm/berkeley problem?

Thanks for help
