Troubleshooting

Q: I'm getting syslog'd messages from the master process saying processes are "signaled to death by 10". What's up?

A: If you're using Berkeley DB 3.0.55, try installing some patches to Berkeley DB available from http://www.sleepycat.com/update/3.0.55/patch.3.0.55.html.

Q: I've used saslpasswd to create CRAM-MD5 secrets, but imapd doesn't say AUTH=CRAM-MD5. Why?

A: Make sure /etc/sasldb is readable by the Cyrus user.

Q: I'm getting messages like:
Jan 14 13:46:24 grant ctl_deliver[9060]: duplicate_prune: opening
/var/imap/deliverdb/deliver-x.db: No such file or directory
Jan 14 13:46:24 grant ctl_deliver[9060]: duplicate_prune: opening
  /var/imap/deliverdb/deliver-y.db: No such file or directory
Jan 14 13:46:24 grant ctl_deliver[9060]: duplicate_prune: opening
  /var/imap/deliverdb/deliver-z.db: No such file or directory
in my cyrus.log file. What's wrong?

A: These messages are normal; one file is maintained for each user beginning with "x", "y", "z", etc. If you're first starting or you have no users beginning with these letters, these messages are completely normal and can be ignored.
