Re: Migrate SASLDB2 to a new server

    You have 2 options:
    - Make sure that SASL on the new machine is compiled to use gdbm
      for sasldb
    - Find a tool to migrate your gdbm database to whatever format
      SASL on the new machine expects

        I’m trying
            to migrate my database to a new Linux server (CentOS 6.9
            x64).
         
        Old Server:
            Cyrus SASL 2.1.18 
        New Server:
            Cyrus SASL 2.1.23
         
        I copied the
            database from the old server to the new server: /etc/sasldb2
         
        But when I
            execute sasldblistusers2 I get below error:
        /etc/sasldb2:
            unexpected file type or format
        listusers
            failed
         
        # file
            /etc/sasldb2
        /etc/sasldb2:
            GNU dbm 1.x or ndbm database, little endian
         
        Is there
            anything I’m missing? Is there a specific procedure to
            migrate the database to a new server?
         
        Thanks,
        Olivier
