Thanks for filing this bug in Ubuntu. I understand you are having issues with dovecot and mysql authentication when talking over the localhost interface, and not a unix socket.
It would help a lot if you could attach relevant configuration files and reproduction steps. How is your database configured, what's the schema, how dovecot is configured, etc. All on a clean bionic system, so that it can easily be reproduced by someone else. I'll mark this bug as incomplete until such information is attached. ** Changed in: dovecot (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server, which is subscribed to dovecot in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1834813 Title: dovecot mysql driver connection fails when connection string host is set to 127.0.0.1 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/dovecot/+bug/1834813/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
