Hi all, I'm using dovecot since a few months and it works great. But a few days ago some coworkers mentioned that they got errormessages in their Mailapp. I searched in the logfiles and found this: Sep 14 12:07:35 Mailserv dovecot: IMAP(eckhard-ma-domain-com): fsync(/home/eckhard-ma-domain-com/mails/.INBOX.0002-Druckangebote von Druckereien.0002-schmerk zwei_E-Mailverkehr/tmp/1189764455.P15962Q0M486676.Mailserv) failed: Input/output error Sep 14 12:07:46 Mailserv dovecot: IMAP(eckhard-ma-domain-com): fsync(/home/eckhard-ma-domain-com/mails/.INBOX.0002-Druckangebote von Druckereien.0002-schmerk zwei_E-Mailverkehr/tmp/1189764466.P15962Q1.Mailserv) failed: Input/output error Mailserv:~# cat /var/log/mail.log.* | grep fsync Sep 20 16:08:40 Mailserv dovecot: IMAP(aicher-fre-domain-com): fsync(/home/aicher-fre-domain-com/mails/.Sent/tmp/1190297319.P5290Q0M979653.Mailserv) failed: Input/output error Sep 20 16:08:48 Mailserv dovecot: IMAP(aicher-fre-domain-com): fsync(/home/aicher-fre-domain-com/mails/.Sent/tmp/1190297328.P5290Q1.Mailserv) failed: Input/output error Sep 20 16:18:24 Mailserv dovecot: IMAP(aicher-fre-domain-com): fsync(/home/aicher-fre-domain-com/mails/.Sent/tmp/1190297904.P5290Q3.Mailserv) failed: Input/output error Sep 20 16:23:20 Mailserv dovecot: IMAP(aicher-fre-domain-com): fsync(/home/aicher-fre-domain-com/mails/.Sent/tmp/1190298200.P5290Q6.Mailserv) failed: Input/output error The /home/ dirs are at a simple RAID 1 System, ext2 filesystem. No NFS or other networkstuff. I'm on a Debian Etch with dovecot 1.0.rc15-2 Any hints what this can be? Thank you in advance Hermann Wacker

Check dmesg to see if it has reported hard disk failures. -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
