Hi, today I had a problem with a Cyrus server that was ok since a long time. The server has less than 200 users but a lot of emails (about 40 GB in 620.000 messages).
Relevant log files are below. From that point after, lmtpunix died every time it was called until I deleted the content of the db directory and deliver.db and restarted master. The content of the db directory was the following : total 11460 drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Oct 11 12:54 . drwxr-x--- 13 cyrus mail 4096 Oct 11 15:25 .. -rw------- 1 cyrus cyrus 16384 Oct 11 12:46 __db.001 -rw------- 1 cyrus cyrus 278528 Oct 11 12:46 __db.002 -rw------- 1 cyrus cyrus 98304 Oct 11 12:46 __db.003 -rw------- 1 cyrus cyrus 10485757 Oct 11 11:28 log.0000000017 -rw------- 1 root root 1259 Oct 11 11:29 log.0000000018 -rw------- 1 cyrus mail 4 Sep 22 19:36 skipstamp I have no idea why log.0000000018 has permission root:root. Any ideas ? I also noticed that tnx number are very high and the last one was 2147552789 that is near the max value of a four bytes signed integer. Is normal to see such high numbers ?
