Hi!

Today, I ran into a totally new kind of trouble with replication. Apparently,
in some situation, when a user has some folders in the DELETED hieararchy, and
the folders get actually removed from the disk, and there is a USER operation
for that user, the replication code tries to replicate the no-longer-existent
folders in DELETED hierarchy and gets errors such as

--clip--
Jan 19 10:59:31 pcn2 i16/sync_client[6696]: IOERROR: opening index DELETED.user.<censored>.BIOMEDICUM.Matkat 2012.06-20.Untitled Folder.4F17D602: System I/O error
Jan 19 10:59:31 pcn2 i16/sync_client[6696]: IOERROR: Failed to open DELETED.user.<censored>.BIOMEDICUM.Matkat 2012.06-20.Untitled Folder.4F17D602: System I/O error
Jan 19 10:59:31 pcn2 i16/sync_client[6696]: Error in do_sync(): bailing out! System I/O error
--clip--

As can be seen here, the folder that Cyrus is trying the replicate, is no
longer existent in the DELETED hierarchy (or anywhere else, for that matter):

--clip--
admin.mappi.helsinki.fi> lm DELETED.user.<censored>.*
DELETED.user.<censored>.BIOMEDICUM.Matkat 2012.06-2012 ESHG.Untitled Folder.4F17D617 (\HasNoChildren)
admin.mappi.helsinki.fi> 
--clip--

Any ideas? I didn't see any behaviour like this in the 2.3 series...


Yours,
