Details

Something seems to have gone wrong in the p2v of landfill into its new machine. For many, many, many files, all over the filesystem, the owner/group is wrong, causing most of the daemons not to start. I can't even properly run rpm. Basically, landfill is not useable. I'd imagine the solution is to either: 1) Run a script that synchronizes all of the permissions from the old landfill. 2) Re-run p2v after figuring out what went wrong.
Here's some examples from /var/lib: drwxr-x--- 2 root 407 4096 Oct 18 14:58 slocate drwx------ 5 70 70 4096 Apr 7 2006 pgsql drwxr-x--- 14 85 mail 4096 Aug 6 2005 imap drwx------ 2 dbus dbus 4096 Aug 2 02:22 dav And some from /var/spool: drwxrwx--- 2 209 209 4096 Oct 17 19:07 clientmqueue drwx------ 2 85 mail 4096 Apr 23 2005 imap It's far too many to fix by hand. There are things like this all over the filesystem.
I'm actually on this myself--justdave and I figured out a way to handle it with rsync.

For reference, in case anybody needs it again, here's the rsync command line I'm using: rsync -rlptgouv --progress --existing / root@63.245.210.140:/ (That's running on the old machine, and 63.245.210.140 is the new machine.)

Okay, that seems to have fixed it.
