Re: Upgrading Cyrus from 2.3.16, going to 2.5.11 or 3.0.2 ?

[Gabriele Bulfon]

I'm planning to upgrade from 2.4.12 to a stable recent version.
Similarly, we have many installation based on our XStreamOS / illumos, our 
server distribution already deploy everything from cyrus to amavis , 
plus our web based collaboration platform.
What is the best choice to start upgrading? May I think to go straight to 
3.0.2? Will the system upgrade my imap base automagically? :)

Eric,
I know 3.0 compiles on Solaris 10 &11; I think the only bit that
didnt work was the http section to provide caldav/carddav, as the
implementation seems to depend on linuxisms. I got it compiled
without the calendar and address book functionality (although
that was a couple of months ago and I havent done any more with
it as yet).

Not sure about 2.1 but in 2.4 it is in sieve directory under 
configdirectory . For example, /var/imap/sieve

Re: Problem upgrading cyrus on debian etch

[Dan Gaudette]

Hi Mick,

The default database formats for the mailbox list and the seen state 
databases has been changed to the skiplist backend.

Check out the install-upgrade.html file in the doc directory - it will 
have some more information that should help you out.

My procedure for migrating to the new server was stopping the source 
server. Finding all files that were running the Berkeley format and 
making a new file using the cvt_cyrusdb to make a new skiplist format file.
I then used rsyns to copy all the files to my new server (keeping its 
location in the filesystem the same). I copied the imapd.conf and the 
cyrus.conf over (with a few adjustments to give support to sql 
authentication backed).
As a final step I converted the skiplist files back to the new Berkeley 
database format and started the server.


Anyone with any ideas what can be the problem... Or even better - what 
is the correct way to migrate Cyrus-Imapd from one version to another?

There's no problem whith the way you did it, I did it the same way 5 
times last month, because my IMAP-partition was to slow with ext3.


So if u got ur mails in the right directory but nothings displayed, try 
to su to cyrus or cyrus-admin-user and run the following command:


/usr/lib/cyrus/reconstruct -rf user

After u've done that everything should be fine again.

Don't forget to set the permissions right after rsyncing!!!

upgrading cyrus imap

[denz]

Hi!

I’ve got old Redhat 7.2 boxes running imap 2.1.1. The DB version is 3.xx.xx.
Need to upgrade to newer Redhat version.
I’ve gone through upgrade-howto’s which come with the package.
Yet cvt_cyrusdb will fail under new flavour of Redhat Linux (ES 3.0 ) b’cos
of 
the Berkely DB incomapibility.


With new OSs and with new berkely DB 4.xx.xx, how can I import the
Old data ? ( old mail boxes with data,  sieve etc… )

upgrading cyrus verion

[Kiarna Boyd]

Good Morning!

To repair my quota woes I have to upgrade my cyrus install.

PLEASE tell me from your experience what version you currently find to be the most 
stable.

I am running 2.0.7

I appreciate it!

Re: upgrading cyrus verion

 PLEASE tell me from your experience what version you currently find to be
the most stable.

 I am running 2.0.7

2.0.16 is much the most stable of the 2.x series, particularly under load.
CMU have reported 5000 simultaneous connections on a single dual CPU Sun

Upgrading cyrus

[tarjei]

Hi,

I finaly managed to install cyrus a few months ago and am happily running it now. What 
I am wondering about, is how do I upgrade. Is it possible to do:

(in 2.0.14 dir) : ./configure, make make install 

and none of my personal files (.conf etc) will be overwritten?

Also, If it does not work, is it then possible to do:
make install 

in my old install dir and rewert without any trouble?

 I however do see a problem between the two implementations.  I have set up two
