Error in Dictionary => SQL Mappings

[wolegis]

Sample configuration code below

https://doc.dovecot.org/2.4.2/core/config/dict.html#sql-mapping

is wrong. Setting value_field doesn't exit. Most likely should be value (resp. dict_map_value).

The next code block some lines further down contains key_field which is not mentioned in the rest of the documentation (nor dict_map_key_field). Here it is the other way round: key_field (resp. dict_map_key_field) is correct, whereas field (resp. dict_map_field) is not accepted.

Thank you for your report! By the way, we also accept pull requests.

Regarding pull requests: I tried yesterday, but the way you compile your documentation is so convoluted that I soon gave up.

Actually the examples are correct. The listed setting names are wrong.

Even worse: value(dict_map_value) is silently ignored (at least by doveconf), whereas value_field (dict_map_value_field) is correctly reproduced in the output of doveconf. Not sure - but I would have expected an error message in the case of value(dict_map_value).

So it seems. That's a more generic config parsing issue, which I hadn't noticed before. Will be fixed in next version.
