I spent most of the last 72 hours implementing a new server with dbmail-mysql, and postfix. It was working, I was slowly (and painfully) populating the database with messages from the old system (were in uw-mbx format) using fetchmail.

Until about 4:30pm today, messages were succesfully received. Since then every attempt to deliver a message into the system has resulted in a log message of:

insert_messages(): error inserting msgblock [header]

Does anyone have any clues for this tragic end?



Ahh, never mind. I cranked up my log level and found that my messageblk file is 4GB. New question: how can I increase my max file size in Debian woody?


Ahh, never mind: my kernel has LFS (large file support, so I found the required info in mysql:

ALTER TABLE messageblks MAX_ROWS=1000000000 AVG_ROW_LENGTH=33178;

(taking the average row length from dbmail-administrator's handy output). Hope it works!
