Thanks. Most of this worked, except the following: > And /usr/local/etc/imapd.conf > [...] > partition-default: /usr/local/imap > [...] > Change to the Cyrus user and use the tool "tools/mkimap" to create > the rest of the directories (subdirectories of the directories you > just created). > su cyrus > tools/mkimap > exit I changed partition-default to /var/spool/imap, which I think is what was needed, otherwise mkimap complained about being unable to create /usr/local/imap. Also, for the su portion, I had to do: # su cyrus % cd /usr/local/cyrus % bin/mkimap Which worked. I hope this was the right thing to do. However, upon startup, I now see the following in all.log: Jul 16 03:56:12 testbox master[1521]: process started Jul 16 03:56:12 testbox master[1522]: about to exec /usr/local/cyrus/bin/ctl_cyrusdb Jul 16 03:56:12 testbox ctl_cyrusdb[1522]: recovering cyrus databases Jul 16 03:56:12 testbox ctl_cyrusdb[1522]: done recovering cyrus databases Jul 16 03:56:12 testbox master[1523]: about to exec /usr/local/cyrus/bin/idled Jul 16 03:56:12 testbox master[1523]: can't exec /usr/local/cyrus/bin/idled for startup: No such file or directory Jul 16 03:56:12 testbox kernel: Jul 16 03:56:12 testbox master[1523]: can't exec /usr/local/cyrus/bin/idled for startup: No such file or directory Jul 16 03:56:12 testbox master[1521]: process 1523 exited, status 71 Jul 16 03:56:12 testbox kernel: Jul 16 03:56:12 testbox master[1521]: process 1523 exited, status 71 Which is true: testbox# find /usr/local -name "idled" -follow -ls testbox# I'm not sure if this feature is needed for reproducing the crash, so I modified cyrus.conf and commented the line out, then restarted imapd, which got me: Jul 16 04:00:22 testbox master[1594]: process started Jul 16 04:00:22 testbox master[1595]: about to exec /usr/local/cyrus/bin/ctl_cyrusdb Jul 16 04:00:22 testbox ctl_cyrusdb[1595]: recovering cyrus databases Jul 16 04:00:22 testbox ctl_cyrusdb[1595]: skiplist: checkpointed /var/imap/mailboxes.db (0 records, 144 bytes) in 0 seconds Jul 16 04:00:22 testbox ctl_cyrusdb[1595]: skiplist: checkpointed /var/imap/annotations.db (0 records, 144 bytes) in 0 seconds Jul 16 04:00:22 testbox ctl_cyrusdb[1595]: done recovering cyrus databases Jul 16 04:00:22 testbox master[1594]: ready for work Jul 16 04:00:22 testbox master[1596]: about to exec /usr/local/cyrus/bin/ctl_cyrusdb Jul 16 04:00:22 testbox master[1597]: about to exec /usr/local/cyrus/bin/notifyd Jul 16 04:00:22 testbox ctl_cyrusdb[1596]: checkpointing cyrus databases Jul 16 04:00:22 testbox ctl_cyrusdb[1596]: archiving database file: /var/imap/annotations.db Jul 16 04:00:22 testbox ctl_cyrusdb[1596]: archiving log file: /var/imap/db/log.0000000001 Jul 16 04:00:22 testbox ctl_cyrusdb[1596]: archiving log file: /var/imap/db/log.0000000001 Jul 16 04:00:22 testbox ctl_cyrusdb[1596]: archiving database file: /var/imap/mailboxes.db Jul 16 04:00:22 testbox notify[1597]: executed Jul 16 04:00:22 testbox ctl_cyrusdb[1596]: archiving log file: /var/imap/db/log.0000000001 Jul 16 04:00:22 testbox ctl_cyrusdb[1596]: archiving log file: /var/imap/db/log.0000000001 Jul 16 04:00:22 testbox ctl_cyrusdb[1596]: done checkpointing cyrus databases Jul 16 04:00:22 testbox master[1594]: process 1596 exited, status 0 testbox# ps -auxw | grep cyrus cyrus 1594 0.0 0.4 22376 3916 ??
