Hello,
our dovecot server crashes totally without any really useful
log messages. The error log can be found in the attachment.
The only way to get dovecot running again is a complete
system restart.
Dovecot version: 2:2.0.15-0~auto+5
                 (2.0.15 (6b7242ead6ed))
Configuration  : see attachment
OS             : Debian Squeeze amd64
Dovecot source : http://xi.rename-it.nl/debian/ \
                 stable-auto/dovecot-2.0 main
This problem has already occurred with the version 2.0.13
where the log says as few as the current logs :-(
Best regards,
Gordon

If really a "complete system restart" is needed to fix it, it doesn't sound like a Dovecot problem. Check if it's enough to stop dovecot and then make sure there aren't any dovecot processes lying around afterwards.> Oct 11 09:55:23 mailserver2 dovecot: master: Error: service(imap): > Initial status notification not received in 30 seconds, killing the > process > Oct 11 09:56:23 mailserver2 dovecot: imap-login: Error: master(imap): > Auth request timed out (received 0/12 bytes)Kind of looks like auth process is hanging. You could see if stracing it shows anything useful. Also are any errors logged about LDAP? Is LDAP running on the same server?
