This usually means the db environment is gone. kaput. corrupted. busted. > Is this a problem with Berkeley DB 3 on HPPA? Probably. Stop cyrus. Make sure (thorough ps, etc) that it is really stopped. cd to /var/lib/cyrus. Now, run db3_recover. Does it hang? if yes, you're in trouble, and you will have to rm ALL the dbs and ALL the logs. There is a backup of the mailboxes db in /var/backups which can be used to restore the mailboxes database using ctl_mboxlist. You will lose some information. If db3_recover worked, rm the deliver.db and tls_sessions.db databases, and make sure all files have owner "cyrus". Then start Cyrus again (and good luck). Did it work? BTW, have you experienced any power outages, cyrus crashes, memory failures or anything else that could have corrupted a db3 environment? It is damn difficult to corrupt it on ia32, at least... Look at the db3 changelogs, see if there are any suspicious changes listed for hppa. -- "One disk to rule them all, One disk to find them. One disk to bring them all and in the darkness grind them.
