Thank you!
Yes, doing the following steps:
- ctl_mboxlist -d > file.txt
- stopping the backend cyrus
- removing mailboxes.db,
- starting cyrus
- ctl_mboxlist -u < file.editted.txt
does mean I can run "imtest -a cyrus-frontend -u simon store-101" (i.e.
against the backend) successfully and SELECT the INBOX.
However, if I restart the backend at this point, I get the old entries
back again in addition to the fixed entries.
Given this cluster isn't yet in production, I've just stopped the entire
cluster, deleted mailboxes.db from everything and "rm -rf
${partition-default}/*" in case there was something bad lurking around
from previous experiments. But it's still the case that if I "cm
user.simon" on the frontend with cyradm, the mailboxes.db on the backend
appears as "... 1 store-101...!default..."
So for some reason I'm not getting correct mailbox location information
created on the backends.
I've included my cyrus.conf files and the murder master's imapd.conf below
in case there's something wrong I've put in any of those.
Cheers
Simon
