I am running a citadel mail server with webcit on an Ubuntu server. I've been having the problem described here and made the rushed decision of removing all of the log files. This created an unexpected issue; when trying to access the mail server through webcit, the following message pops up and nothing else happens:

This program was unable to connect or stay connected to the Citadel server. Please report this problem to your system administrator. Read More...

Nothing I found online helped. The cdb.<xx> files are still there and intact, but all the log files are gone.

How can I get citadel to work again, without the log files?

Note: I need to keep ALL the settings and accounts I currently have, but the messages themselves are expendable.

An Idea. Recreate blank log files in the same name as they were before.

You may have to setup a dummy server in the cloud if you have no idea of the file names.

  • Sadly there was thousands of log files and I don't have the number so that won't work. I already tried copying a few from another server of mine but that didn't work :( – Vlad Schnakovszki Jan 27 '16 at 22:14
