Problem

Not able to take complete backup and getting following exception in mailbox.log file.

Solution

  • Go to configured backup path (default is - /opt/zimbra/backup)
  • Open accounts.xml in your text editor, and remember the two lines related to that account.

For example, if the original entry is like so :

<account zimbraId="0e98d0df-0c92-48d2-bd01-a01027504d8a" email="user@example.com" latestFullBackupLabel="full-20130919.102126.721"> 
</account> 
<account zimbraId="ff0cf615-6749-4e94-aa53-548cd8dba365" email="issue@example.com" latestFullBackupLabel="full-20130919.102126.721">
</account>
<account zimbraId="c0263897-e300-4836-9da3-4356dbe2498e" email="user2@example.com latestFullBackupLabel="full-20130919.102126.721"> 
</account>


Remove the lines pertaining to that account. In our example, it'll be 'issue@example.com'. So we remove both, the <account -info- > and </account> lines and remaining entries will looks like following:

<account zimbraId="0e98d0df-0c92-48d2-bd01-a01027504d8a" email="user@example.com" latestFullBackupLabel="full-20130919.102126.721"> 
</account> 
<account zimbraId="c0263897-e300-4836-9da3-4356dbe2498e" email="user2@example.com latestFullBackupLabel="full-20130919.102126.721"> 
</account>


  • Then re-run backup
zmbackup -f -a -all
