In connection to upgrading our small email server (around 35 users) I
have run into a slight problem. I can log into my server and also get a
folderlist, but it seems it is hanging (not displaying) content in the
folders.
My source server is running this version:
version

My procedure for migrating to the new server was stopping the source
server. Finding all files that were running the Berkeley format and
making a new file using the cvt_cyrusdb to make a new skiplist format file.
I then used rsyns to copy all the files to my new server (keeping its
location in the filesystem the same). I copied the imapd.conf and the
cyrus.conf over (with a few adjustments to give support to sql
authentication backed).
As a final step I converted the skiplist files back to the new Berkeley
database format and started the server.
Anyone with any ideas what can be the problem... Or even better - what
is the correct way to migrate Cyrus-Imapd from one version to another?
Thanks,
Jesper K. Pedersen
