[Dovecot] dovecot, postfix and sieve - broken by Ubuntu upgrade 10.10 -> 12.04
Hi!
In upgrading from Ubuntu 10.10 to 12.04, my mail setup (dovecot using sieve and postfix) broke pretty badly. Have gotten teh imap server working, but local delivery doesn't work. - sieve gets called, but all "fileto" actions result in "failed to store into mailbox 'zzz': Mailbox doesn't exist: zzz
Dovecot version is 2.0.19, configuration is:
# 2.0.19: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf # OS: Linux 3.2.0-37-generic i686 Ubuntu 12.04.2 LTS ext4 auth_mechanisms = plain login base_dir = /var/run/dovecot/ disable_plaintext_auth = no info_log_path = /var/log/dovecot.info listen = * log_path = /var/log/dovecot.log log_timestamp = "%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S " login_greeting = Mail server ready. mail_location = maildir:/srv/mail/%u mail_max_userip_connections = 256 mail_privileged_group = mail managesieve_notify_capability = mailto managesieve_sieve_capability = fileinto reject envelope encoded-character vacation subaddress comparator-i;ascii-numeric relational regex imap4flags copy include variables body enotify environment mailbox date ihave mbox_dotlock_change_timeout = 10 mins mbox_lock_timeout = 20 mins mbox_very_dirty_syncs = yes passdb { driver = pam } plugin { sieve = /home/julf/sieve } protocols = imap service auth { unix_listener /var/spool/postfix/private/dovecot-auth { group = postfix mode = 0660 user = postfix } unix_listener auth-master { mode = 0600 } user = root } service imap-login { chroot = login user = dovecot } service managesieve-login { chroot = login user = dovecot } service pop3-login { chroot = login user = dovecot } ssl = no userdb { driver = passwd }

the much more interesting infomration would be what dovecot version Ubuntu 10.10 had especially if and how you planned migration or did you blindly upgrade without consider what this means for services and testing at all?

I of course realized that as I was writing my message, but I am afraid I don't have that information available any more.

Definitely a mea culpa here. Not much planning, just hoping for the best - counting on config files not having changed too much. I am the first one to admit it definitely isn't how it *should* be done.

http://library.linode.com/email/postfix/dovecot-mysql-ubuntu-10.10-maverick Jan 21 18:55:39 li181-194 dovecot: Dovecot v1.2.12 starting up (core dumps disabled)
so you upgraded from doveot 1.2 to 2.0 a major mistake without planning
always setup a virtual machine, configure it like your running server and play around with test and snapshots until you have the needed changes for your setup figured out - for any service
so you upgraded from doveot 1.2 to 2.0
Evidently, yes.
a major mistake without planning
Agree.

Indeed, a lesson learned.

looks like 2.1.7 is in quantal so if you wanna stay at ubuntu orig source consider go quantal , or recompile the sources at precise
however best way perhaps is use
http://xi.rename-it.nl/debian/pool/testing-auto/dovecot-2.1/
2.1.15 packs
also look on package matrix at
http://wiki2.dovecot.org/PrebuiltBinaries#Automatically_Built_Packages
more info what are the diffs is at
http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Upgrading/
