Where are you located when you restart master? Are you in a directory that is readable by the Cyrus user? This is very likely a result of a bug in master. It should chdir to a directory that is readable by the Cyrus user before it changes UID to that user. Otherwise, attempts to determine the current directory will fail. -- -Gary Mills- -Unix Support- -U of M Academic Computing and Networking- --- Cyrus Home Page: http://asg.web.cmu.edu/cyrus Cyrus Wiki/FAQ: http://cyruswiki.andrew.cmu.edu List Archives/Info: http://asg.web.cmu.edu/cyrus/mailing-list.html
