inorder to resolve this issue i did kinda a scary thing. more scary because it seems to be working but im trying some tests to be sure. i borrowed my bounce.o file from my other version of dbmail the one that was in production and coppied it to my new server that is running a differnt kernal and on differnet arch, looks like for now i have lucked out. however i heed your warnings about upgradeing to 2.0 and to be honest it is probably something that i need to do in the future.

is this upgrade script that you speak of a part of version 2.0 if so i assume it is just a sql script that i can look through and tweek where i need to?

Hi there,

The database schemas are *not* compatible.

1.2 is currently not supported by any developer I know of. It is probably not compatible with your gcc version. You can fix it yourself (or hire someone), or
upgrade to 2.0.x which is actively supported.

Upgrading from 1.2 to 2.0 is *not* trivial. It may result in significant loss of
data if done without due attention. It may also reveal corruption in your
existing data undetected by 1.2's maintenance tools. That said, it is perfectly
safe to do so.

It is in itself a well-tested and straightforward procedure: run the upgrade sql script included in 2.0. But you *have* to make sure it fits first! Don't fire it at your production servers unless you have made sure it doesn't trigger sql errors.

Your current schema is most likely not vanilla 1.2.8+, something assumed by the standard script. Especially the removal and addition of old/new keys will have
to be tweaked.

So:

- test and tune the upgrade script in a test setup to your current schema.
- backup your critical data.
- block injection of new email by bringing down your email
 connections (postfix ?), and stopping the old dbmail daemons.
- fire the upgrade script at your production server.
- bring up the new dbmail daemons.
- restart smtp, webmail, etc.


Hope that help.
PjS.

ok ... let me be more specific about my situation. i am installing this
to be a third email server for my current setup. i was not sure if
version 2.0 would be compatible with the version i am currently running
on my other two servers. does anyone know if the way mail is stored has
changed since version 1.2.9. if they store things in the database the
same i have no problems with upgradeing.

What version of dbmail are you trying to compile, seems like a old
version to me... but maybe I'm wrong...

Get the latest stable witch is 2.0.x from www.dbmail.org

best regards
