Re: [qmailtoaster] QMT migration problems

Hi Jake... Here is the details of the file/directory permissions for the new domain  I created and which is working properly: drwx------   4 vpopmail vchkpw 4096 Apr 28 14:23 . drwx------  40 vpopmail vchkpw 4096 Apr 28 14:22 .. drwx------   3 vpopmail vchkpw 4096 Apr 28 14:22 postmaster -rw-------   1 vpopmail vchkpw  111 Apr 28 14:22 .qmailadmin-limits -rw-------   1 vpopmail vchkpw   55 Apr 28 14:22 .qmail-default drwx------   3 vpopmail vchkpw 4096 Apr 28 15:07 sb When I said that I changed the vpopmail database password, I actually meant the one which is set using the command:    echo "GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON vpopmail.* TO [EMAIL PROTECTED] IDENTIFIED BY 'SsEeCcRrEeTt'" | mysql -u root –p and then the same password is added  to the  '/home/vpopmail/etc/vpopmail.mysql' file. Initially while setting up QMT on the new server I had set some new password for this and then later on when I reset the password adding the same one that I had in my old server.

Then I did a manual install of QMT on my new server which was successful. Then I transferred the ‘curlfile’ containing the backup of the old server to the new server’s root directory. Then from the home directory of my user account, as ‘root’ user, I executed the restore script (again from Jake’s site). I must mention here that in Jake’s restore script, I had enabled the line that converted the old aliases to the new format.   I must also mention here that the mysql root password in my old server and the new server are not same. I guess there is no harm as such!?

Those permissions look right. When you create a domain, are there any differences with permissions between the two? Since you changed the vpopmail database password, did you also change the user?
