Panic on indexer-worker and Dovecot stop to search on Solr

Hi,

I have setup on a (little busy) Dovecot server FTS with Solr and Virtual 
folder to enable "search in all folders" for users.

All works fine until for some users the indexer-worker process crash.

After this crash Dovecot stop to query Solr for new search in BODY, 
returning SERVERBUG, for all users on the server and only with a dovecot 
restart users can search in BODY again.

Before the dovecot restart I can see that on Solr server no query from 
dovecot arriving anymore (for SEARCH BODY because SEARCH in 
FROM/TO/SUBJECT still works fine)

Dovecot version is 2.3.14 (from RPM) and Apache Solr si 7.7.3. Here is 
the error found in the log:

on Solr side I found this error log:

This is the relevant part of dovecot configuration:
plugin {
   fts = solr
   fts_autoindex = yes
   fts_decoder = decode2text
   fts_enforced = body
   fts_index_timeout = 5s
   fts_solr = url=http://10.0.1.3:8983/solr/dovecot/
   [...]
}

Is this an already know bug? Any workaround?
Thanks
