Default [SOLVED] Empty mailbox after migrating

I'm trying to migrate from one server running FC5 with Zimbra 4.5.10 to a new server with the same version of software. I use rsync to migrate the data and followed the Moving ZCS to Another Server instructions. The migration goes very smoothly with no errors that I saw. All the users are migrated and their passwords work. The problem is that there is no email in their mailboxes at all. I sent a test message and new mail shows up just fine, but all the old email is gone.

I migrated back to the old server for now, but I'd really like to make the move permanent.

anyone help?

Kerry

Welcome to the forums

When you say you rsync'd the data what do you mean ? Did you not just tar up /opt/zimbra, install a dummy installation, and then restore from your tar'ed file ?

Turns out I'm retarded. I used a script to do some backup a while back and had taken some folders out for speed. I corrected the script and the upgrade went great.

sorry to take your time.
