[vchkpw] vconvert problem
Hello all; I am trying to move from a qmailrocks server to a newer qmailtoaster-iso server but I am having problems moving the domains over to the qmailtoaster machine. I have the two machines running, qmailrocks is the production machine, qmailtoaster is the new machine. I would like to make sure that the conversion will go smoothly so I am doing a dry run of moving the domains over and seeing if they will import. I have used rsync to copy the /home/vpopmail/domains directory over to the qmailtoaster. Once this is complete the owner of the domain directories and files is the user ID number and group ID number from the original qmailrocks machine. Then I change the ownership of this directory tree to vpopmail:vchkpw. I then have run vconvert -c -m to convert all of the domains, but it explicitly says it fails. Then I have copied the /var/qmail/control/cdb and assign files over to the qmailtoaster machine and run the same vconvert -c -m command and it explicitly says the the domains converted successfully. This I am very happy about. Now, however I am not able to log into any of the accounts that have converted. Not even the postmaster account. I have noticed that if I use an incorrect password with a valid account I get an incorrect username or password error. If I use a valid password I get dropped from a Squirrelmail login or a pop3 telnet session. When I look at the imap4 log I see a permission denied error. I have been wrestling with this for weeks now and the boss is getting impatient. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Ray Webster !DSPAM:4734be0d32001037962888!
[vchkpw] Vconvert problem in 5.4.0 - help
Does anyone know if there is a problem in the vconvert program converting from cdb to mysql in vpopmail 5.4.0? After running vconvert across all domains here is the contents of the mysql vpopmail table: | pw_name| pw_domain | pw_passwd | pw_uid | pw_gid | pw_gecos | pw_dir| pw_shell| pw_clear_passwd | ++---+++++---+-+-+ | spam | emm15.org | $1$Squ80GTv$x/0r6Qqm51cxi0r3RborU1 | 1 | 0 | spam | /home/vpopmail/domains/5/emm15.org/spam | 20485760S,1000C | xxx | | postmaster | emm15.org | $1$ag6IlD6H$/USpGUDz5jaAOq7Mc72rH/ | 1 | 0 | Postmaster | /home/vpopmail/domains/5/emm15.org/postmaster | 20485760S,1000C | bxer| ++---+++++---+-+-+ But yet when I run 'vdominfo emm15.org' I get: orion:/home/vpopmail/bin# ./vdominfo emm15.org domain: emm15.org uid:89 gid:89 dir:/home/vpopmail/domains/5/emm15.org users: 0 It show 0 users when the mysql table shows 2 users. (I'm depressed.) Best Regards, Jeff Koch
[vchkpw] Vconvert problem
Hi all. I'm testing a migration from cdb to mysql on vpopmail, but I encounter a problem. If I run vconvert -c -m, it reports success but my vpopmail table in vpopmail db is clear. I also try to create a new account to test if it was a permission problem, but all works well: the new account was inserted in vpopmail table. Then, if I rerun vconvert -c -m, I find that my vpopmail table is cleared again, loosing also my new account definitions. Vpopmail version 5.3.12 Any ideas?? Thanks in advance Ciao Gianni
Re: [vchkpw] vconvert problem - ignoring one user
The - in the domain name should not matter. I would suggest running vconvert in gdb and walk through the how it processes that one domain. Then you can see what is going on.
