Package: cyrus-imapd-2.2 Version: 2.2.13-13 Severity: important --- Please enter the report below this line. ---
After having installed cyrus-imapd-2.2, I discovered that the imapd server was unable to run because the permission beneath its administrative directory /var/lib/cyrus was not correctly assigned: ls -la /var/lib/cyrus/ total 11 drwxr-x--- 10 cyrus mail 312 2007-09-16 16:03 . drwxr-xr-x 60 root root 1560 2007-09-16 16:02 .. -rw------- 1 cyrus mail 144 2007-09-16 16:03 annotations.db drwx------ 2 root root 48 2007-09-16 16:02 db drwx------ 2 cyrus mail 112 2007-09-16 16:03 db.backup1 drwx------ 2 root root 48 2007-09-16 16:02 log -rw------- 1 cyrus mail 144 2007-09-16 16:03 mailboxes.db drwx------ 2 root root 48 2007-09-16 16:02 msg drwx------ 2 root root 48 2007-09-16 16:02 proc drwx------ 28 root root 672 2007-09-16 16:02 quota drwxr-x--- 2 root root 48 2007-09-16 16:02 socket drwx------ 28 root root 672 2007-09-16 16:02 user All the directories belong to root whereas cyrmaster is running as cyrus !
