If the risk is a file overwrite i suggest making symlinks! Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. change something with the webadmin 2. apply the settings 3. iggy@gentoo.org 2004-02-08 17:37:06 0000 Sorry, been a little busy lately. Looked into this, it does apply the settings, it just doesn't restart the processes correctly. I'm looking into some way to fix this. m@lcolm.org.uk 2004-02-15 15:38:38 0000 The problem lies with Webadmin being unable to find the scripts to restart Courier. This can be easily fixed by changing one line in /usr/share/courier/courierwebadmin/webadmin.pl by using the following patch: diff -Naur /usr/share/courier/courierwebadmin/webadmin.pl usr_share_courier_20040210/courierwebadmin/webadmin.pl --- /usr/share/courier/courierwebadmin/webadmin.pl 2004-02-10 11:56:39.000000000 +0000 +++ usr_share_courier_20040210/courierwebadmin/webadmin.pl 2004-01-24 01:44:23.000000000 +0000 @@ -15,7 +15,7 @@ local $prefix="/usr"; local $exec_prefix="/usr"; local $bindir="/usr/bin"; -local $sbindir="${exec_prefix}/sbin"; +local $sbindir="/usr/share/courier"; local $libexecdir="/usr/lib/courier"; $ENV{"PATH"}="/usr/bin:${exec_prefix}/sbin:/sbin:/usr/sbin:/usr/local/sbin:/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/local/bin"; iggy@gentoo.org 2004-02-15 17:42:31 0000 Actually I went the other way and changed the names of what it looks for in /usr/sbin (it's looking for courier-imapd and courier-pop3d). The changes for this are in courier-0.44.2.20040201.ebuild as of about 7:40pm(CST). Let me know if you have any problems with it. If I don't hear anything about it in the next couple of days (and assuming 44.3 isn't out within that time either) I'm going to bump courier-0.44.2.20040201.ebuild to stable.
