Topic: Error in configuration file /root/iRedMail-0.7.4/config line 2

My OS is Centos 6.2x64 fresh install

When installing iRedMail-0.7.4 & iRedMail-0.8.0-beta4, I get same error:
Starting Dovecot Imap: doveconf: Fatal: Error in configuration file /root/iRedMail-0.7.4/config line 2: Expecting '='
doveconf: Error: managesieve-login: dump-capability process returned 89
doveconf: Fatal: Error in configuration file /root/iRedMail-0.7.4/config line 2: Expecting '='

The first line in config is blank. If I remove it and restart dovecot, things seem to work fine.

Any ideas?

This is a known issue on CentOS 6, still no idea why it happenes.
But it doesn't impact mail service at all, it's safe to ignore it.

Hi schmerold2,

This long live bug was fixed moment ago, commit log:
https://bitbucket.org/zhb/iredmail/comm … 85af650e5c

The root cause is Dovecot reads config file location from global variable CONFIG_FILE on CENTOS 6, but it's set to iRedMail config file (/root/iRedMail-x.y.z/config) by default. It's now renamed to IREDMAIL_CONFIG_FILE instead to avoid name space conflict.
