Hi, Earlier today Thomas Robers asked about messages as below. I just joined the list, so I could not reply. But I've found one possible solution.
This happens if you start master process (as root) in a directory which cyrus user cannot access due to the directory permissions. E.g.: # id uid=0(root) gid=1(other) # pwd /var/log/mail # ls -ald . drwxr-x--- 2 root other 512 Jun 18 09:01 . # /opt/cyrus-imapd-2.1.13/bin/master -d # ps -ef|grep master cyrus 2059 1 0 12:26:55 ? 0:01 /opt/cyrus-imapd-2.1.13/bin/master -d # pwdx 2059 2059: /var/log/mail (pwdx is probably Solaris specific, but it shows process work dir). Now if I change permissions on the directory to 0755, error messages go away. Maybe this happens because my cyrus user does not have home directory at all? -- Petri
