v2.3.1: Event leaked (parent=(nil)): http-client.c:137 and 439
by Milan Knížek 03 May '18

03 May '18

Hi, After upgrade to dovecot 2.3.1, many IMAP clients cause errors in dovecot log: May 01 20:15:51 tiger dovecot[21985]: imap: Warning: Event 0x555fd3c01630 leaked (parent=(nil)): http-client.c:137 May 01 20:15:51 tiger dovecot[21985]: imap: Warning: Event 0x555fd3c00140 leaked (parent=(nil)): http-client.c:439 Namely: * roundcube 1.3.3 * offlineimap * nextcloud mail app Despite the errors, the basic functionality seems to work - mails are received by the client. However, the GUI clients display an "internal server error" message window on each refresh. Some other clients do not create any issues: * MailDroid (Android) * getmail Anybody got a similar behaviour? -- Milan Knížek | knizek.confy(a)gmail.com

Corrupted dbox file around offset= EOF reading msg header
by DurgaPrasad - DatasoftComnet 02 May '18

02 May '18

Hello Dovecoters, I am using dovecot-2.2.10-8.el7.x86_64 on RHEL 7.4 When I backup mdboxes (using SIS) using this command doveadm -Dv -o plugin/quota= sync -1f -u user1(a)user.com mdbox:/mailbackup/user1 mails get backedup but all m files are not copied. Last file copied is m.4 If I run the command again I get below error I tried with doveadm backup command as well (many times). Error: Corrupted dbox file / mailbackup/user1/storage/m.4 (around offset=3732536): EOF reading msg header (got 0/30 bytes) Result is all mails are not backedup. Destination is a folder on a NAS with NFS mapped to the server. Thanks/DP --- This email has been checked for viruses by Avast antivirus software. https://www.avast.com/antivirus

Panic when using doveadm fts lookup
by André Rodier 29 Apr '18

29 Apr '18

Hello, I am actually testing dovecot fts search, using doveadm fts lookup. I run this command: doveadm fts lookup -u andre subject "Test" And this generate this error: doveadm(andre): Panic: file mail-storage.c: line 1694 (mailbox_get_open_status): assertion failed: (box->opened) doveadm(andre): Error: Raw backtrace: /usr/lib/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(+0x95e92) [0x7fa7ac9e8e92] -> /usr/lib/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(+0x95f19) [0x7fa7ac9e8f19] -> /usr/lib/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(i_fatal+0) [0x7fa7ac97ea91] -> /usr/lib/dovecot/libdovecot-storage.so.0(mailbox_get_open_status+0x68) [0x7fa7accb5f68] -> /usr/lib/dovecot/modules/lib21_fts_solr_plugin.so(+0x494d) [0x7fa7ab90394d] -> /usr/lib/dovecot/modules/lib20_fts_plugin.so(fts_backend_lookup+0x4d) [0x7fa7abf6861d] -> /usr/lib/dovecot/modules/doveadm/lib20_doveadm_fts_plugin.so(+0x2821) [0x7fa7aabff821] -> doveadm(+0x28fcd) [0x5617545e8fcd] -> doveadm(+0x29ba8) [0x5617545e9ba8] -> doveadm(doveadm_cmd_ver2_to_mail_cmd_wrapper+0x21c) [0x5617545ea9ec] -> doveadm(doveadm_cmd_run_ver2+0x555) [0x5617545f9d25] -> doveadm(doveadm_cmd_try_run_ver2+0x37) [0x5617545f9d77] -> doveadm(main+0x1da) [0x5617545d9afa] -> /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6(__libc_start_main+0xf1) [0x7fa7ac5d42e1] -> doveadm(_start+0x2a) [0x5617545d9eda] Do I have to do anything special to test the dovecot fts index with doveadm lookup?

Listening on multiple ports
by Derek Harding 28 Apr '18

28 Apr '18

Hi, I want dovecot to listen for imaps (ssl) on both 993 and a non-standard port 8839. I've tried using variations on the inet_listener entries in 10-master.conf as shown in a couple of threads on here but none of the attempts have worked. Can someone provide me with a cut-and-paste solution and confirm into which file it should be placed (i.e. is the dovecot.conf format using the inet_listener = {address} appropriate)? -- Best wishes, Derek

Virtual mailbox doesn't refresh without deleting indexes
by Bret Martin 26 Apr '18

26 Apr '18

Hello, I have a virtual mailbox with the following dovecot-virtual file: mdbox/* -mdbox/Archive/* -mdbox/Junk -mdbox/Notes all younger 604800 not deleted This works at first, but after messages are older than 7 days, they continue to appear in this mailbox forever. Even if I close all IMAP clients and reconnect, I can't get the mailbox to omit the older-than-7-days messages without deleting its indexes. I have other virtual mailboxes that update as expected, but I don't think any of those are date-based. For example, this one "refreshes" as I'd expect: mdbox/* -mdbox/Archive/* -mdbox/Junk flagged Am I doing something wrong with the first virtual mailbox I mentioned above? I'm using dovecot 2.2.13 on Debian GNU/Linux. Thanks! --Bret

director stuck in inifite loop on 2.2.35
by Jan-Pieter Cornet 26 Apr '18

26 Apr '18

Occasionally, all of our directors get stuck in an endless loop. Likely triggered by some network event, but I haven't been able to isolate exactly what triggers it, and am unable to reproduce at the moment. When this happens, it makes the dovecot/director process on all directors unresponsive, making login impossible. Restarting dovecot "fixes" it. Here's the info collected from the stuck process. I hope that a dovecot dev could use this to either fix a bug in the async IO code or point to a possible external source that could have triggered this. Would it help to compile dovecot with -g and run a version with debugging info, to be able to inspect more when the crash happens again? "strace" showed this endless loop: 09:27:52.837960 epoll_ctl(14, EPOLL_CTL_DEL, 213, 0x7ffe8e642cdc) = 0 09:27:52.837993 epoll_ctl(14, EPOLL_CTL_ADD, 213, {EPOLLIN|EPOLLPRI|EPOLLERR|EPOLLHUP, {u32=3317538000, u64=94320799358160}}) = 0 09:27:52.838035 epoll_ctl(14, EPOLL_CTL_DEL, 213, 0x7ffe8e642cdc) = 0 09:27:52.838070 epoll_ctl(14, EPOLL_CTL_ADD, 213, {EPOLLIN|EPOLLPRI|EPOLLERR|EPOLLHUP, {u32=3317538000, u64=94320799358160}}) = 0 "ltrace" showed the same loop as: 10:38:01.773867 timeout_add(0x7530, 0x55c8c351df75, 965, 0x55c8c3515a00) = 0x55c8c5c658b0 10:38:01.774060 timeout_remove(0x55c8c5acf7a8, 0, 0xffffffff, 0) = 0 10:38:01.774239 io_add(213, 1, 0x55c8c351df75, 1070) = 0x55c8c5c658b0 10:38:01.774429 io_set_pending(0x55c8c5c658b0, 1, 0x55c8c54b8aa0, 0x7fb4ab11b06a) = 0x55c8c54b8aa0 10:38:01.774598 p_strarray_dup(0x7fb4ab703660, 0x55c8c5786e00, 5, 0x55c8c3723740) = 0x55c8c56d7530 10:38:01.774771 io_remove(0x55c8c5acf788, 0x55c8c3516d60, 5, 48) = 0 10:38:01.774957 timeout_add(0x7530, 0x55c8c351df75, 965, 0x55c8c3515a00) = 0x55c8c5c658b0 10:38:01.775129 timeout_remove(0x55c8c5acf7a8, 0, 0xffffffff, 0) = 0 10:38:01.775301 io_add(213, 1, 0x55c8c351df75, 1070) = 0x55c8c5c658b0 10:38:01.775492 io_set_pending(0x55c8c5c658b0, 1, 0x55c8c54b8aa0, 0x7fb4ab11b06a) = 0x55c8c54b8aa0 10:38:01.775662 p_strarray_dup(0x7fb4ab703660, 0x55c8c56d7530, 5, 0x55c8c3723740) = 0x55c8c5786e00 10:38:01.775833 io_remove(0x55c8c5acf788, 0x55c8c3516d60, 5, 48) = 0 That fd 213 is the next-highest FD opened, and is bound to /var/run/dovecot/director-admin.

replication and .dovecot.lda-dupes
by Patrick Cernko 25 Apr '18

25 Apr '18

Hi list, this question was already posted a few years ago (https://www.dovecot.org/list/dovecot/2014-November/098585.html) I already asked the original queriest and he told me, that he never got an solution or workaround but it was not important enough for him. When using replication in conjunction with sieve vacations, the .dovecot.lda-dupes file is not synced with the other server. So when delivering to both servers (round-robin or randomized), senders might get more vacation mails than configured as the other server does not know, that the first one already sent a vacation message. Is this a bug or intentional? If it is a bug, I hereby ask for a fix, please. We are using Dovecot version 2.2.27 on Debian/stretch. This is dovecot -n (hostnames anonymized): # 2.2.27 (c0f36b0): /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf # Pigeonhole version 0.4.16 (fed8554) # OS: Linux 4.9.76.1.amd64-smp x86_64 Debian 9.3 auth_verbose = yes default_vsz_limit = 2 G doveadm_password = # hidden, use -P to show it doveadm_port = 12345 listen = * login_log_format_elements = pid=%p user=<%u> method=%m rip=%r lip=%l mpid=%e %c mail_attachment_dir = /IMAP/mail/attachments mail_attachment_fs = sis-queue /IMAP/mail/attachments/queue:posix mail_home = /IMAP/mail/mailboxes/%u mail_location = mdbox:~/mdbox mail_log_prefix = "%s(%u[%p]): " mail_max_userip_connections = 0 mail_plugins = " notify replication zlib fts fts_squat" maildir_stat_dirs = yes managesieve_notify_capability = mailto managesieve_sieve_capability = fileinto reject envelope encoded-character vacation subaddress comparator-i;ascii-numeric relational regex imap4flags copy include variables body enotify environment mailbox date index ihave duplicate mime foreverypart extracttext namespace inbox { inbox = yes location = mailbox Drafts { special_use = \Drafts } mailbox Junk { special_use = \Junk } mailbox Sent { special_use = \Sent } mailbox "Sent Messages" { special_use = \Sent } mailbox Trash { special_use = \Trash } prefix = } passdb { args = /etc/dovecot/ldap.conf driver = ldap } plugin { fts = squat fts_autoindex = yes fts_squat = partial=4 full=10 mail_replica = tcp:other-server sieve = file:~/sieve;active=~/.dovecot.sieve zlib_save = gz zlib_save_level = 3 } postmaster_address = <> protocols = " imap lmtp sieve" service aggregator { fifo_listener replication-notify-fifo { mode = 0666 } unix_listener replication-notify { mode = 0666 } } service anvil { client_limit = 2250 } service auth { client_limit = 2447 } service doveadm { inet_listener doveadm-server { port = 12345 } } service imap-login { inet_listener imap { port = 0 } process_limit = 2047 } service imap { process_limit = 2047 } service lmtp { inet_listener lmtp { port = 24 } } service pop3-login { inet_listener pop3 { port = 0 } inet_listener pop3s { port = 0 } } service replicator { process_min_avail = 1 unix_listener replicator-doveadm { mode = 0666 } } ssl_cert = </etc/ssl/certificate.pem ssl_key = # hidden, use -P to show it userdb { args = /etc/dovecot/userdb.overrides driver = passwd-file } userdb { args = /etc/dovecot/ldap.conf driver = ldap } verbose_proctitle = yes protocol lmtp { auth_username_format = %n mail_plugins = " notify replication zlib fts fts_squat sieve" } protocol lda { mail_plugins = " notify replication zlib fts fts_squat sieve" } And this is /etc/dovecot/ldap.conf (hostnames anonymized): uris = ldaps://ldap1/ ldaps://ldap2/ base = dc=domain user_filter = (&(objectClass=posixAccount)(uid=%u)) user_attrs = \ =user=%{ldap:uid}, \ =uid=%{ldap:uidNumber}, \ =gid=%{ldap:gidNumber} pass_filter = (&(objectClass=posixAccount)(uid=%u)) iterate_filter = (&(objectClass=posixAccount)(istMailHomeServer=servername)) auth_bind = yes /etc/dovecot/userdb.override is currently an empty file. P.S.: Although I do not think, that this has something to do with our problem, I should mention that we run SIS with system uids. This needs some permission and posixacl tweaks on /IMAP/mail/attachments to work: # force all files created in this dir recursively) to have mode 0666 setfacl -d -m group::rwx -m o:rwx /IMAP/mail/attachments (you have to enable posixacls for the corresponding filesystem!) # trick dovecot to inherit parent dir's permissions (recursively) chmod 2777 /IMAP/mail/attachments Feel free to add these tweaks to the SIS documentation. ;-) Best Regards, -- Patrick Cernko <pcernko(a)mpi-klsb.mpg.de> +49 681 9325 5815 Joint Administration: Information Services and Technology Max-Planck-Institute fuer Informatik & Softwaresysteme
