Hi all,
I'm receiving a reproducible dsync backup panic for some of my users. The error message is as follows:
dsync-remote(user@<removed>): Panic: file dsync-brain-mailbox-tree-sync.c: line 111 (dsync_brain_mailbox_tree_sync_change): assertion failed: (brain->no_backup_overwrite)
dsync-remote(user@<removed>): Error: Raw backtrace: /usr/lib/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(+0x69b70) [0x7f922dad9b70] -> /usr/lib/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(default_fatal_handler+0x2a) [0x7f922dad9c4a] -> /usr/lib/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(i_fatal+0) [0x7f922da94725] -> /usr/bin/dsync(dsync_brain_mailbox_tree_sync_change+0x382) [0x42f912] -> /usr/bin/dsync(dsync_brain_recv_mailbox_tree_deletes+0x10b) [0x42f4db] -> /usr/bin/dsync(dsync_brain_run+0x305) [0x42c6f5] -> /usr/bin/dsync() [0x42cbe8] -> /usr/bin/dsync() [0x43e040] -> /usr/lib/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(io_loop_call_io+0x36) [0x7f922daea066] -> /usr/lib/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(io_loop_handler_run+0xd7) [0x7f922daeaf07] -> /usr/lib/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(io_loop_run+0x38) [0x7f922dae9b78] -> /usr/bin/dsync() [0x4297f9] -> /usr/bin/dsync() [0x4133cd] -> /usr/bin/dsync(doveadm_mail_try_run+0x251) [0x414091] -> /usr/bin/dsync(main+0x3c8) [0x412f78] -> /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6(__libc_start_main+0xfd) [0x7f922d704ead] -> /usr/bin/dsync()
[0x413191]
dsync-local(user@<removed>): Error: read(<remote-mail-server>) failed: EOF
dsync-local(user@<removed>): Error: Remote command returned error 134
The command I'm using to back up individual user's mail is something like:
sudo -u vmail dsync -v -u user at server.com -R backup ssh -i sshid-file login at server.com sudo -u vmail dsync -v -u user at server.com
I use the above command at the backup server. The error started to appear a few weeks after we started using the new mail system. First it appeared for a single user, now it appears for some more users as well. It is deterministic and reproducible.
Any ideas?
I included the relevant part of my config below.
Best regards,
Peter
