If this error is happening, it'll be very soon after "updating recovery stamp", just once per restart. It means it's failing while trying to write the skipstamp file, which would explain why it doesn't exist, and the other details in the log line will tell us why. You haven't mentioned seeing this error, so I'm assuming this is not what's happening. Yes, I have those too. Didn't notice until I looked for them as they're buried in lots of other logs: # zgrep 'write failed' mail* mail.log:2023-08-08T22:59:57.637094+00:00 virt cyrus/ctl_cyrusdb[3379907]: DBERROR: write failed: filename=</var/lib/cyrus/db/skipstamp> syserror=<No such file or directory> func=<myinit> mail.log:2023-08-08T23:04:48.820221+00:00 virt cyrus/ctl_cyrusdb[3380363]: DBERROR: write failed: filename=</var/lib/cyrus/db/skipstamp> syserror=<No such file or directory> func=<myinit> mail.log.1:2023-08-02T22:36:15.735925+00:00 virt cyrus/ctl_cyrusdb[3012332]: DBERROR: write failed: filename=</var/lib/cyrus/db/skipstamp> syserror=<No such file or directory> func=<myinit> And indeed /var/lib/cyrus/db doesn't exist. Though the DBs that were in there from previous backups (mailboxes.db and annotations.db) are now just in /var/lib/cyrus. I made that directory and restarted and now skipstamp is there, and the errors in the logs have disappeared! Thanks! Though just out of my own curiosity, how come the other DB files aren't in the 'db' directory but that one is? The only relevant config I can find is: ``` configdirectory: /var/lib/cyrus ``` And I'd assume everything would be relevant to that, either in that dir or in $configdir/db/ ? Thanks again for all your help, and sorry it was such a dumb issue. -- Phil Dibowitz [email protected] Open Source software and tech docs Insanity Palace of Metallica http://www.phildev.net/ http://www.ipom.com/ "Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind." - Dr. Seuss ------------------------------------------ Cyrus: Info Permalink: https://cyrus.topicbox.com/groups/info/Tf92f39d4795cc515-Macfb0470d1bfc4c4d976e143 Delivery options: https://cyrus.topicbox.com/groups/info/subscription
