Hi,
I'm running dovecot-2.3 git and seeing on 2 of my Dovecot installations, the following message logged quite frequently:
Aug 31 16:55:53 lightning.reub.net dovecot[7698]: auth-worker(7707): Error: getpwent() failed: Invalid argument Aug 31 16:55:53 lightning.reub.net dovecot[7698]: replicator: Error: User listing returned failure Aug 31 16:55:53 lightning.reub.net dovecot[7698]: replicator: Error: listing users failed, can't replicate existing data
It appears that this could be having an effect on replication, but it's unclear because the secondary/replica doesn't see much traffic.
Authentication is via PAM and the system is Gentoo Linux x86_64. passb driver = pam, userdb driver = static .
doveadm user -u '*' shows the system users listed twice like this (is this a problem?) and then prints:
reuben liam reuben liam <some other users> Error: User listing returned failure Fatal: user listing failed
To me that doesn't look right.
Can anyone suggest what could be causing this? I don't recall seeing this message some time ago so I suspect it's a recent change in either dovecot, or pam or glibc etc..
Thanks, Reuben
I'll see if this is reproducible

Hi Aki,

glibc-2.28.
There was a posting by Michael Marley on 31/08 saying he saw something similar to this problem after upgrading to 2.28 as well with 'doveadm purge'.

There was a posting by Michael Marley on 31/08 saying he saw something similar to this problem after upgrading to 2.28 as well with 'doveadm purge'.

Hi Aki,
How did you go with this in the end? Do you need anything more from me or were you able to reproduce this?
Thanks, Reuben

I have no idea why it's returning invalid argument, maybe you need to raise this as issue with glibc? Aki On 19.09.2018 10:43, Reuben Farrelly wrote:

As a followup to this thread, it is looking increasingly like this is a regression in glibc-2.28. One of the Gentoo devs has reproduced the problem, created a test case and bisected it down to a specific commit that went into glibc in July. For more information see: https://bugs.gentoo.org/667118 Note: it's not a problem with glibc-2.27, but new to 2.28. Reuben On 19/09/2018 6:53 pm, Aki Tuomi wrote:
