* src/plugins/convert/convert-storage.c:
convert plugin: Fixed changing hierarchy separators in mailbox names when alt_hierarchy_char isn't set. [a9f719f9a509] <HEAD>
Since, I get the following :
$ convert-tool user1 /var/mail/example.com/user1 Maildir:/var/mail/example.com/user1 mbox:/var/mail/example.com/user1-mbox alt_hierarchy_char=_ Error: Mailbox conversion: Couldn't create mailbox Sent/test: Mailbox doesn't allow inferior mailboxes Error: Internal failure
Strace give show me a failure after :
access("/var/mail/example.com/user1/.Sent.test/cur", W_OK) = 0 stat("/var/mail/example.com/user1-mbox/Sent/test", 0x7fff843e73b0) = -1 ENOTDIR (Not a directory) write(2, "Error: Mailbox conversion: Couldn"..., 103Error: Mailbox conversion: Couldn't create mailbox Sent/test: Mailbox doesn't allow inferior mailboxes ) = 103 lstat("/var/mail/example.com/user1/.dovecot.convert.lock", {st_mode=S_IFREG|0644, st_size=12, ...}) = 0 unlink("/var/mail/example.com/user1/.dovecot.convert.lock") = 0
Is that somethinh known ? Didn't find anything interesting in archives.
Maybe that kind of conversion have evolved since 2.0 ?
Thanks, Beber
