Topic: Iredmail to Iredmail server migration

==== REQUIRED BASIC INFO OF YOUR IREDMAIL SERVER ====
- iRedMail version (check /etc/iredmail-release):  .4.0 MARIADB edition.
- Deployed with iRedMail Easy or the downloadable installer? I dont know this ?
- Linux/BSD distribution name and version:  Centos 7
- Store mail accounts in which backend (LDAP/MySQL/PGSQL):  MySQL
- Web server (Apache or Nginx): Apache
- Manage mail accounts with iRedAdmin-Pro?  - NO
- [IMPORTANT] Related original log or error message is required if you're experiencing an issue.
====

1. Trying to migrate Iredmail from one Server to another (almost same version)
Checked the link for backup and restore https://docs.iredmail.org/backup.restor … nd-restore

my server could not locate the version first thing like rsync and somehow it seems , the support page above says to copy /paste folders /var/vmail/vmail1  --- I thought this may be not right

Looking for support and a coffee together smile

Re: Iredmail to Iredmail server migration

/var/vmail/vmail1 stores all mailboxes by default, if you sync with "rsync", better run rsync with arguments like "--owner --group --perms" to preserve owner/group/permission. Or, set owner/group/permission manually after synced:

cd /var/vmail/
chown -R vmail:vmail vmail1
chmod -R 0700 vmail1

Re: Iredmail to Iredmail server migration

Install it with command "yum install rsync".
