Hi, I run into a problem on an old clearos server, where the cyrus shutdown always failed at step exporting databases. As I checked the situation using ps ax on an other console, I found that, it was exporting deliver.db.skiplist file, which failed after a loooong time (some minutes). I checked that file on the filesystem, I saw the file size is 2048MB, which seems a limit for me and I suspect the problem should be that, the 32 bit cyrus cannot write more data to that file and caused the problem. As I read the db_export.log, that confirmed my theory, file size limit exceeded.
This kind of issue causes long hangup at system shutdown and I guess causes other potential problems, as this file could be truncated and useless. My question, do you have any idea/hint, what to do to get it work? For example, changing export.db format to something else? (How?) Thank you! I copied some important information below, please check it. db_export.log: cvt_cyrusdb_all version: 1.2.1db_checkpoint: open: No such file or directory/usr/lib/cyrus-imapd/cvt_cyrusdb_all: line 199: 9150 File size limit exceeded$cvt_cyrusdb "$target" "$old_db" "${target}.skiplist" skiplistERROR: unable to convert /var/lib/imap/deliver.db from berkeley to skiplistremoved `/var/lib/imap/db/log.0000000001'removed `/var/lib/imap/db/__db.001'removed `/var/lib/imap/db/__db.002'removed `/var/lib/imap/db/__db.003'removed `/var/lib/imap/db/__db.004'removed `/var/lib/imap/db/__db.005'removed `/var/lib/imap/db/__db.006'removed `/var/lib/imap/db/__db.007'removed `/var/lib/imap/db/__db.008'removed `/var/lib/imap/db/__db.009'removed `/var/lib/imap/db/__db.010'removed `/var/lib/imap/db/__db.011'removed `/var/lib/imap/db/__db.012' The system details: * Clearos 5.2 32 bit * Cyrus is 2.3.11 * kernel 2.6.18-308.1.1.v5 * filesystem is ext3 (no problem to write 200-300GB into a single file) * size of email folder (/var/spool/imap/*): 1007 GB * size of /var/lib/imap/deliver.db 48MB Other interesting config files: db.cfg.cache content annotation_db=skiplistduplicate_db=berkeleymboxkey_db=skiplistmboxlist_ db=skiplistptscache_db=berkeleyquota_db=quotalegacyseenstate_db=skiplis tsieve_version=2.2.3subscription_db=flattlscache_db=berkeley /var/lib/imap/db/DB_CONFIG set_cachesize 0 8388608 8set_lg_regionmax 5242880set_lg_bsize 8097152 Thank you!
