Problem with a couple of databases from a backup

HCL Domino Domino Forum

So I had a tragic event on Thursday night, the servers HDD died completely on me and had a backup of the mail\ directory from a couple of days before, so after reinstall I just deployed the complete directory onto the domino directory, all seemed fine but Im having problems with 3 databases, it wont add a Person in the People directory hence denying access to the email database with users client.

Anything specific I could be missing ? Every other database automatically generated a person in the people directory BUT these 3. :frowning:

Help would be greatly appreciated.

What I did do in the meantime is add persons with ACL to their database so they can access it from the Internet but what about their archives ? How can I grant them access to they archived databases ?

Hi Rodrigo

If you are using Linux, the most probable thing you are facing is that the owner of the file get overwritten and it says that the owner it is ‘root’ or some other user instead of the user you used to install Domino.

Please check that the access with chmod and chown.
