Hi everyone,
A bit over a month ago I tried to upgrade the Berkeley DB on a
Cyrus-2.2.12 mailserver. That didn't work out because right at startup,
'ctl_cyrusdb -r' would fail with 'critical dabase situation'.
After a bit of debugging, I've gotten things down to this:
If I build cyrus against the old version (4.1.25), it runs great. If I
build it against 4.4.20, it doesn't want to start. Even though I've
changed tlscache_db and duplicate_db to 'skiplist' in the imapd.conf and
removed those db-files from the system, so it shouldn't even be using
Berkeley-db anymore, with all databases being skiplist.
Starting with a clean /var/imap, I can start the newly compiled Cyrus,
so it has to do with whatever is left in /var/imap/db from the old
Berkeley version.
I've also done a db_upgrade in /var/imap using the 4.4.20 db_upgrade
version, but the Cyrus with the 4.4.20 Berkeley libs still won't start.
I'd welcome any suggestions on how to proceed and make this into a
working mail-server again. (Don't worry, this is only the testbed - the
really scary stuff is yet to come).
Regards, Paul Boven.
