Greeting, folks,
I have a Murder with two backends. We have experienced what we believe to be skiplist corruption on the mupdate master server. More precisely, the log show a few instance of such an error :
May 17 09:50:26 mupdate mupdate[19842]: DBERROR: skiplist recovery \ /var/imap/mailboxes.db: 45DF894 should be ADD or DELETE May 17 09:50:26 mupdate mupdate[19842]: DBERROR: error updating \ database user.test1234.subtest123: cyrusdb error
Which OS / kernel version are you using ?
Problem is : user.test1234.subtest123 exist on a backend, but don't show in the mupdate database. Thus we can't delete the mailbox, frontend don't know about it, etc.
What would be the best to go about it ? Would running "ctl_mboxlist -m" on the backends fix it ?
You can delete the mailboxes.db and restart cyrus, then you can run ctl_mboxlist -m on the backends
You could also recover the mailboxes.db getting it from the hot backup in the db.backup1/2 directories and then run ctl_mboxlist -m on the backends. That would work only if your hot backup isnt already corrupted
Is yes, is it possible to run it while the backend are live ?
Im not sure. I've done it in the past and didnt notice any problems.
Regards
