Zimbra

hupp · #1 (**permalink**) 07-12-2010, 06:20 AM

Hi,

i Have wrong permessions in my Folders under /opt/zimbra/zmstat/.

The daily folder is owned by root and so i get error messages in /opt/zimbra/log/mailbox.log

If i change the owner to zimbra:zimbra I no longer get the error.

Why the system doesn´t create the folder with the correct rights?

Thanks for your Help.

I have the same issue, too.
We should file a bug on bugzilla, if none of zimbra reply to this thread
as always, -> imho

my setup is just one server. I use

Quote:

Release 6.0.6_GA_2330.DEBIAN5 DEBIAN5 FOSS edition.

Maybe the problem starts when I upgraded from 5.x

This problem is a known issue, unfortunately.

The "cure" is to change the ownership of the dated folder and their contents and then restart Zimbra stats.

As root:

Code:

chown -R zimbra.zimbra /opt/zimbra/zmstat/2010-*

Then, as the zimbra user:

Code:

zmstatctl stop; zmstatctl start; zmstatctl status; zmcontrol status

If the output from everything above looks good, then in a few minutes all the red "X"s in the Admin Console should change to blue checkmarks.

Note that you will need to redo this periodically, after Zimbra starts applying the wrong ownership to the newly created dated stats folders.

Hope that helps,
Mark
