Hi all,

I have this strange problem that has suddenly occurred recently.

I keep getting the following error when running vadddomain:

sh-2.05# vadddomain test14.com
Unknown parameter:

Please enter password for postmaster:
enter password again:
Error: Unable to chdir to vpopmail/domains directory
sh-2.05#

On all other boxes, that command runs fine. And I've already checked the
permissions on ALL the directories leading up to the one in ~vpopmail. I
also checked the permissions of ~vpopmail/domains, and it is the same as
everything else.

The strange thing is that it DOES create the directory:
drwx------ 2 vpopmail vchkpw 4096 May 25 00:45 test14.com

however, inside that directory only the following exists:
total 12
drwx------ 2 vpopmail vchkpw 4096 May 25 00:45 .
drwx------ 23 vpopmail vchkpw 4096 May 25 00:45 ..
-rw------- 1 vpopmail vchkpw 58 May 25 00:45 .qmail-default

and nothing else. No vpasswd or vpasswd.cdb or anything else. Anyone know
whats going on?

I also found:

sh-2.05# ls -al /
total 1467
drwxr-x--x 17 root root 4096 May 25 00:22 .
drwxr-x--x 17 root root 4096 May 25 00:22 ..
-rw------- 1 root root 0 May 25 07:57 .vpasswd.lock

suddenly after running vadddomain .

vadduser doesn't work at ALL.

Does anyone have any ideas? Free beer to the guy that figures this one out
:-)

Thanks in advance.

Jason.
