I've been on James 3 for nearly 3 years. It's a rare occurrence, but
there have been a few times that the var 'store' has become corrupted.
Basically, JAMES siezes up, and nothing will get it going again. I have
found in these situations (basically through trial and error) that
deleting the var directory fixes it. Since deleting var causes JAMES to
start functioning again, I'm going to assume that there was something
corrupted in that folder.
After deleting var, I'm not observing any apparent repercussions. But I
gotta believe that there cannot be "zero" damage to killing a folder.
Today, it happened again. From the log, it appears that mail was still
coming in. But IMAP was dead. I tried bouncing JAMES and MySQL. No
change. Tried rebooting the entire box. Also, no change. The errors
below were showing up in the log. I removed the var folder (actually
just renamed it), and everything is back to running fine.
My one question.... what damage did I do? Did I lose mail that might
have come in during the several hours it froze before I noticed the
problem? BTW... it's James 3.0b5 running on WinServer2008 r2.
