Now try to login, and it should crash. Then type "bt" and copy&paste the output and mail it to me. http://dovecot.procontrol.fi/bugreport.html shows what the gdb output should look like.
It doesn't crash, it hangs.
Your logs before showed that it crashes at least sometimes. The backtrace you sent was done before the crash, so it didn't help.. Did you give the "continue" command to gdb? Without that the process is just stuck in gdb.
No, I didn't know about continue. dovecot-auth now bleats appropriately and goes mildly to the slaughter. The new backtrace is on its way to you.
Maybe someone can tell me; is there ever any reason to log onto dovecot as dovecot? Should I make the dovecot user's LDAP entry available to dovecot?
There's no need to ever login as dovecot. I'll probably just add extra checks to make sure dovecot user isn't ever used for anything else than executing the login processes :)
Dang. Everytime I try to do something, you add a check to prevent it. Are you trying to save me from myself?
