Cyrus-Imap: cyradm: cannot authenticate to server with as cyrus
I'm a begginer in IMAP.
When i do cyradm --user cyrus localhost
, i get:
[root@SRD-GrupoG-Server lib]# cyradm --user cyrus localhost
IMAP Password:
Login failed: generic failure at /usr/lib64/perl5/vendor_perl/Cyrus/IMAP/Admin.pm line 120.
cyradm: cannot authenticate to server with as cyrus
I also did saslpasswd2 -c cyrus
to set the password.

To authenticate cyrus, you need to have a sasl daemon too. Actually, the whole thing is far from trivial, and isn't very well documented.
First, you had to track your commands with
strace -s 200 -f your command -args
Please extend your question with the relevant data and I will be here to help more.
Second, please check the logs of your system, too. Next to that, in cases of professional system administration questions, the ServerFault SE can you help a lot as well.
P.s. (sorry for the offtopic, but in your place I used dovecot which have much fewer problems.)
I got this invar/log/messages
when i do thecyradm

@CatCos They you localized the problem: your sasl isn't properly configured. The main problem with it is that it is nearly undocumented. Try to download some sasl binary tool, and check this config! But I warn you, it won't be simple.

THe only thing i did was install the package cyrus-sasl and change the imapd.conf file. This is for a collegue work. I didn't do nothing in sasldb2

Ok for some reason, this is working now. I only uninstall thecyrus-sasl
package and install again and it started to work ...
