Re: rename folder problem with 2.4.4

[Robert Spellman]

If I reconfigure my backend mailstore to remove the murder configuration (so that it thinks it's a stand alone server), the rename works, so I think it must have something to do with my imapd.conf files and the way my backend servers communicate with my murder server.

I'm trying to build a configuration that looks like:


A single murder server


Anyone willing to share their imapd.conf files for such a configuration?

I'm seeing issues with renaming a folder in version 2.4.4. The database shows that the folder has been renamed, however, the file system still shows the old name. I see the same issue when using Thunderbird, imtest or cyradmin to perform the rename.

Here's my imapd.conf from my backend server:

    partition-default: /home/imap
    defaultpartition: default
    sievedir: /var/lib/imap/sieve

    tls_ca_file: /etc/pki/tls/certs/bates.edu-cert.pem

    proxyservers: murderdev.bates.edu

    mupdate_server: murderdev.bates.edu
    mupdate_username: backend


and the output from the version command:

                 idle = poll

An ls of the filesystem shows that the directory Testing still exists. If I try to execute a cyradm command against NotTesting, I get a system i/o error. I saw the same problem with 2.4.3, and upgraded to 2.4.4, and get the same results.
