Hello, I am building a new server. Nothing big, just for my self and some family members. I have used Cyrus for the last four years now I am installing 2.3.8 on an LFS version dated 2007-05-05. LFS comes with DB 4.5.20. However IMAPd uses old calls to DB which are fixed by a patch posted in the thread "Cyrus-IMAPD 2.3.8 an BerekelyDB 4.5.20" starting March 22, 2007. I used this patch which solve the compile problem. But... The first boot of IMAPd gives a lot of DBERROR messages in the log file. I have create the folders imap, mail, sieve, spool and srvtab in the folder /srv/cyrus all owned by cyrus and the group mail. The imapd.conf points to the right folders, I used to change the folders on other configurations as well so I know this should work. This is an ls -l of the folder: root@jcw-dualserv-dev:/srv/cyrus$ ls -l totaal 20 drwxr-x--- 6 cyrus mail 4096 jun 10 13:42 imap drwxr-x--- 2 cyrus mail 4096 jun 10 12:33 mail drwxr-x--- 2 cyrus mail 4096 jun 10 12:33 sieve drwxr-x--- 2 cyrus mail 4096 jun 10 12:33 spool drwxr-x--- 2 cyrus mail 4096 jun 10 12:33 srvtab On starting the following messages where written to the log: Jun 10 11:26:30 jcw-dualserv-dev master[4347]: about to exec /usr/bin/imapd Jun 10 11:26:30 jcw-dualserv-dev imaps[4347]: DBERROR db4: /srv/cyrus/imap/db/__db.001: No such file or directory Jun 10 11:26:30 jcw-dualserv-dev imaps[4347]: DBERROR: dbenv->open '/srv/cyrus/imap/db' failed: No such file or directory Jun 10 11:26:30 jcw-dualserv-dev imaps[4347]: DBERROR: init() on berkeley Jun 10 11:26:30 jcw-dualserv-dev imaps[4347]: DBERROR: reading /srv/cyrus/imap/db/skipstamp, assuming the worst: No such file or directory Jun 10 11:26:30 jcw-dualserv-dev imaps[4347]: executed Jun 10 11:26:30 jcw-dualserv-dev pop3s[4348]: skiplist: recovered /srv/cyrus/imap/mailboxes.db (0 records, 144 bytes) in 0 second The folder /srv/cyrus/imap exists, but is seems imaps fails to create the db folder for whatever reason. After creating it manually imaps could start properly. Is this a bug related to the use of DB 4.5?
