Here's one of the leftover log files, time-stamped right at the time of one of these bailout crashed. APPEND user.marie SEEN marie user.marie MAILBOX user.marie MAILBOX user.marie.Junk SEEN marie user.marie.Junk SEEN marie user.marie MAILBOX user.marie Other messages have been delivered since that time to both user.marie and user.marie.Junk without crashing sync_client. So if this log is telling me there's a problem with either of these mailboxes, I don't understand what the log is telling me. Yes, I am using the "-l" flag (sync_client -r -l -v), but I'll have to say once again that neither /var/log/messages nor any other log file on my master server shows any other sync-related error message of any sort whatsoever, except for the "Error in do_sync(): bailing out!" message I mentioned previously. In /var/log/debug.log, I see things such as these: Nov 3 18:55:44 whodunit sync_client[6875]: seen_db: user richw opened /var/imap/user/r/richw.seen Nov 3 19:03:29 whodunit sync_client[7008]: DIGEST-MD5 client step 1 Nov 3 19:03:29 whodunit sync_client[7008]: DIGEST-MD5 client step 2 Nov 3 19:03:29 whodunit sync_client[7008]: DIGEST-MD5 client step 3 Nov 3 19:13:44 whodunit sync_client[7127]: DIGEST-MD5 client step 1 Nov 3 19:13:44 whodunit sync_client[7127]: DIGEST-MD5 client step 2 Nov 3 19:13:44 whodunit sync_client[7127]: DIGEST-MD5 client step 3 (the bailout message itself occurred at 19:14:37) and on the replica server, I see the following: Nov 3 19:03:29 flipflop syncserver[15942]: accepted connection Nov 3 19:03:29 flipflop syncserver[15942]: cmdloop(): startup Nov 3 19:13:45 flipflop master[16110]: about to exec /usr/cyrus/bin/sync_server Nov 3 19:13:45 flipflop syncserver[15942]: accepted connection Nov 3 19:13:45 flipflop syncserver[15942]: cmdloop(): startup Nov 3 19:13:45 flipflop syncserver[16110]: executed but that's all. Should I be seeing additional debugging output? If so, where should I be looking for it? I'm very sorry, but at the moment, all I can see is that the sync software mysteriously dies every so often, with no intelligible clue as to why. I understand you're saying that there should be additional info, but either it's NOT there or I don't know where to look for it. If anyone can help me figure out what I'm doing wrong here, I'll be grateful. -- Rich Wales === Palo Alto, CA, USA === richw@xxxxxxxxx http://www.richw.org === http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Richwales "The difference between theory and practice is that, in theory, theory and practice are identical -- whereas in practice, they aren't." ---- Cyrus Home Page: http://cyrusimap.web.cmu.edu/ Cyrus Wiki/FAQ: http://cyrusimap.web.cmu.edu/twiki List Archives/Info: http://asg.web.cmu.edu/cyrus/mailing-list.html
