The "db3" argument? Or the format of the > deliver.db file? The "db3" argument, appearently. I tried: /usr/sbin/cvt_cyrusdb -h /usr/sbin/cvt_cyrusdb: invalid option -- h Usage: /usr/sbin/cvt_cyrusdb [-C altconfig] <old db> <old db backend> <new db> <new db backend> Usable Backends: berkeley, berkeley-nosync, berkeley-hash, berkeley-hash-nosync, flat, skiplist, quotalegacy So I tried: $ /usr/sbin/cvt_cyrusdb /var/lib/cyrus/deliver.db berkeley /var/lib/cyrus/temp.db flat Converting from /var/lib/cyrus/deliver.db (berkeley) to /var/lib/cyrus/temp.db (flat) fatal error: can't open old database I'm getting this feeling of deja vu all over again... I wonder if I ran into something similar when upgrading from 1.5 to 2.* once upon a time...?
