Hi..

im still trying to upgrade to 2.0. Im getting: dovecot: lda: Error: userdb lookup: connect(/var/run/dovecot/auth-userdb) failed: Permission denied (euid=10000(vmail) egid=10000(vmail) missing +r perm: /var/run/dovecot/auth-userdb, euid is not dir owner)

You're calling dovecot-lda as the user vmail:vmail, probably from your MTA. Probably it's not being called by anyone else.

service auth {

auth_socket_path points to this userdb socket by default. It's typically

used by dovecot-lda, doveadm, possibly imap process, etc. Its default

permissions make it readable only by root, but you may need to relax these

permissions. Users that have access to this socket are able to get a list

of all usernames and get results of everyone's userdb lookups.

unix_listener auth-userdb { mode = 0600 #user = vmail #group = vmail

Comment out the user/group lines above and that should work fine.
