[tegg]

Hi,
i tried to install and start dovecot on my wandboard/ARM. But when i tried to start dovecot i got:

$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', ' sudo systemctl start dovecot.service
Error getting authority: Error initializing authority: Error calling StartServiceByName for org.freedesktop.PolicyKit1: Timeout was reached (g-io-error-quark, 24)
Failed to start dovecot.service: Die Wartezeit für die Verbindung ist abgelaufen')

whats wrong there ?

There was a prompt in your DE apparently, asking for your password for sudo, and it timed out.

no, it isn't a problem with sudo, i got it also with root

$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', '[root@wand~]# systemctl start dovecot
Error getting authority: Error initializing authority: Error calling StartServiceByName for org.freedesktop.PolicyKit1: Timeout was reached (g-io-error-quark, 24)
Failed to start dovecot.service: Die Wartezeit für die Verbindung ist abgelaufen
')
