[Postfixbuch-users] postgrey "can't create DB environment"

[Sven Übelacker]

Hallo!

Vielleicht habt Ihr eine Idee, die postgrey mailingliste scheint auch bei 
aehnlichen fragen ratlos oder: die loesung ist zu einfach und ich blicks 
nicht :) (bevor ich jetzt das Ding ganz umschreibe, damits tut... frag ich 
lieber Euch nochmal)

Sorry fuers Crossposting...

Danke,
Sven.



Hi,

I tried and tried but can't get it... Found no answer in old messages nor the 
net. I reinstalled db41 and BerkeleyDB for perl many times, toggled every 
possible permissions and paths, and examined the code. I hope here's some one 
knowing that problem. 

Thanks,
Sven.

I call:
/usr/local/bin/postgrey --inet=127.0.0.1:10026 -d
and get:
ERROR: can't create DB environment: No such file or directory

packages:
db41-4.1.25-75
db41-devel-4.1.25-75
perl-BerkeleyDB-0.25-4

strace tail, seems to be something from "bomart"s ioctl and "Ralf 
Hildebrandt"s can't create DB environment... what's wrong with /dev/null?
