Vladas,
Glad to hear you're on top of this.  One important thing to remember 
when running the Cyrus utilities is that *many* of them require you to 
run them as whatever UID you have configured Cyrus to run as.  On many 
Linux systems, that user will be 'cyrus' and the group will be 'mail'.  
This is explained in this section of the Installation Instructions:

    https://www.cyrusimap.org/imap/installing.html#create-cyrus-environment

Please also consult this section, in the Upgrade section, for more guidance:

Cheers,
