Re: db directory filling up - normal or config error?
It fits because your Cyrus is configured to use BerkleyDB for some 9or all) of the databases. You should not have to stop Cyrus. Running this command (with proper -h location) should show you what log files are no longer used: db_archive -h /var/imap/db And this command should get rid of them: db_archive -d -h /var/imap/db On 02/09/2016 10:53 PM, Carl Brewer via Info-cyrus wrote: On 10/02/2016 9:08 AM, Patrick Boutilier via Info-cyrus wrote: Not sure if Cyrus is supposed to clean up (been using skiplist exclusively for years now) but according to this link you can remove the old log files. http://www-rohan.sdsu.edu/doc/BerkeleyDB/ref/transapp/logfile.html How does that fit in with Cyrus? Do I need to stop imapd before I use db_archive? thank you! Carl On 02/09/2016 04:05 PM, Carl Brewer via Info-cyrus wrote: I asked this a few months ago, but now it's getting urgent.

This is not sustainable on this little server. I'm not sure if cyrus itself is supposed to clean these up? My cyrus.conf is : # standard standalone server implementation START { # do not delete this entry! recover cmd="ctl_cyrusdb -r" # this is only necessary if using idled for IMAP IDLE # idledcmd="idled" } # UNIX sockets start with a slash and are put into /var/imap/socket SERVICES { # add or remove based on preferences imap cmd="imapd" listen="localhost:imap" prefork=0 imaps cmd="imapd -s" listen="imaps" prefork=0 pop3 cmd="pop3d" listen="pop3" prefork=0 pop3s cmd="pop3d -s" listen="pop3s" prefork=0 #sievecmd="timsieved" listen="sieve" prefork=0 # these are only necessary if receiving/exporting usenet via NNTP # nntp cmd="nntpd" listen="nntp" prefork=0 # nntpscmd="nntpd -s" listen="nntps" prefork=0 # at least one LMTP is required for delivery # lmtp cmd="lmtpd" listen="lmtp" prefork=0 lmtpunix cmd="lmtpd" listen="/var/imap/socket/lmtp" prefork=0 # this is only necessary if using notifications # notify cmd="notifyd" listen="/var/imap/socket/notify" proto="udp" prefo rk=1 # Carl, 20140806 smmapd cmd="smmapd" listen="/var/imap/socket/smmapd" prefork=1 } EVENTS { # this is required checkpointcmd="ctl_cyrusdb -c" period=30 # this is only necessary if using duplicate delivery suppression, # Sieve or NNTP delprune cmd="cyr_expire -E 3" at=0400 # this is only necessary if caching TLS sessions tlsprune cmd="tls_prune" at=0400 } Have I done something wrong, config-wise?

Re: 2.5.x RPMs from KolabSys?
Hi folks, On a quick uneducated tour around the obs.kolabsys.com site, I get to https://obs.kolabsys.com/package/show/cyrus-imapd:2.5-next/cyrus-imapd and if you follow the links per platform on on the right hand side, it does take you to a page which seems to have downloadable tarballs. They don't seem to have been rebuilt in a long while, and many platforms have build errors, so YMMV with how much use it is. Jeroen is listed as the maintainer; he may know more.
