The data stored is the "seen version" (which has been 1 for a long time), the last read time (time_t cast to int), last uid (int), last change time (time_t cast to int), and seen uids (a string created earlier from unsigned long). I suppose it's possible that the casts of time_t to int are corrupting your results. What value is time_t on your system? It absolutely true that casting time_t to int is *wrong*, and should be handled in some other way, e.g., TIME_T_FMT. Of course, that has (different) implications for migrating between platforms as well. You might try dumping the data with cyr_dbtool on yor 32-bit system and reloading it with cyr_dbtool on your 64-bit system. I doubt that will help, but you never know. I think a much more likely scenario is that however you're copying the mailboxes is causing the unique ID of the mailboxes to be re-assigned. Since all of the data in the seen DB is keyed on the unique ID of the mailbox, if the unique ID of the mailbox changes, all of the seen data is effectively lost. Probably a uid validity change would have a similar effect. :wes >> On 09 Jan 2009, at 01:47, ram wrote: >>> I am migrating mailboxes from a 32 bit cyrus (cyrus-2.3.7) to a >>> 64 bit >>> cyrus (2.3.13) server >>> >>> When I copy the mailbox seen flags(skiplist) from the 32 bit >>> server to >>> the 64 bit servers it does not work.
