RE: XBACKUP and backupd not backing up public folders (3.0.8)

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 

Thanks for confirming my suspicions, Ellie.

 

So how are people currently backing up shared folders, if they’re not using Cyrus backupd? I looked at replication, but that doesn’t seem to help me to reach the point where I can dump a coherent filesystem structure to tape or NAS or some other external storage.

Hi Deborah,

 

Thanks, that's all useful!  Looks like in both places it's struggling with lack of a userid, which makes some sense because it's a shared mailbox, and shared mailboxes don't have userids.

 

I guess this means that in its current state, the backup system can't handle shared mailboxes. :(  Which is weird, because the docs say it can, and I wouldn't have written that if I didn't think it worked, but maybe I didn't understand shared mailboxes as well as I thought way back then.

 

I've created a github issue (https://github.com/cyrusimap/cyrus-imapd/issues/2893), and am about to make a test case to reproduce the problem, so I can get on with fixing it. :)

 

Cheers,

 

ellie

Does the same problem occur if you use sync_client (on the master server, as the cyrus user) to replicate the shared mailbox to the backup server (rather than using XBACKUP over IMAP)?  Something like "sync_client -n rsync  -m support@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx" I think? 
 

With -m I get this familiar output on the master:

# /usr/lib/cyrus/bin/sync_client -v -n rsync -m support@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

MAILBOXES polyfoam.com.au!support

Error from sync_do_mailboxes(): bailing out!

and this is seen in the log on the backup server:

This doesn't crash, but it instead transfers a since-deleted full user support@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx (from earlier dross in my database before I made support@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx a public mailbox) to the backup server:

But I think that's a red herring.  If I do it for a public mailbox that has never had a matching user, I get this:

# /usr/lib/cyrus/bin/sync_client -v -v -n rsync -u info2@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

cyrus/sync_client[201121]: couldn't authenticate to backend server: no mechanism available

and running with the -m option on info2 produces the same segfault as above.

 

On the backup server, what does the "ctl_backups verify -vvv -m polyfoam.com.au!support" command say about the shared mailbox? 

It segfaults, not the same as above.

Calling strlen() on the null userid would be the immediate cause of the crash.  I'm not familiar enough with the code to know what leads to userid being null, or if that's also the cause of backupd crashing.
