Hi. Does a port of Cyrus 2.3.10 exist yet? Or are you aware of any issues with 2.3.10 under FreeBSD for which patches might exist? I'm running Cyrus on a FreeBSD 6.2-RELEASE system. I need to upgrade from 2.3.9 to 2.3.10 because I want to use replication but am running into stability problems with the replication code in 2.3.9. I tried building 2.3.10 from sources, using the same configuration options as in my 2.3.9 build from the port. I added one patch from the Info-Cyrus list, relating to getgrouplist() calls, but otherwise used the 2.3.10 source "as is". The resulting 2.3.10 build suffered from problems with "ctl_cyrusdb -c" hanging, and other mail delivery attempts hanging (or timing out) and piling up in my Postfix queue. I had to restart Cyrus frequently in order to clear these logjams. Eventually, I gave up and went back to 2.3.9, but I can't stay there indefinitely because I need replication to work more solidly than it does in 2.3.9. Are you aware of any issues which might cause this sort of instability with 2.3.10? If I can't find out (or figure out) what is going on, I'll probably have to move Cyrus off my FreeBSD box and put it on something like Ubuntu, where 2.3.10 appears to run without problems. -- Rich Wales === Palo Alto, CA, USA === richw@richw.org http://www.richw.org === http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Richwales
