I get this when I reload dovecot after any changes. How can I fix it? I can?t find any reference to it anywhere. master: Warning: fd limit (ulimit -n) is lower than required under max. load (256 < 1000), because of default_client_limit thanks Robert

Hi, with a low soft limit on file descriptors, dovecot 2.2.15 warns on startup: Warning: fd limit (ulimit -n) is lower than required under max. load (256 < 1000), because of default_client_limit It could try increasing the limit first, and only report the warning if that fails. I'm attaching a patch that does just this. Without the patch, the soft fd limit is kept at whatever it was on dovecot startup: % pfexec plimit $(pgrep dovecot) 18737: /opt/niksula/sbin/dovecot...

Hi, i have configured my dovecot-proxy with "shutdown_clients = no" and "service_count = 1" for a "default_process_limit = 5000" and "default_client_limit = 25000". I don't know if this is a prefered setup for so many users/concurrent sessions but so i can reload my dovecot without disconnecting all sessions. The main problem are pop3 sessions - if i kill them, the mailbox remains locked and the client gets an error. Back to my problem: I...

Hello Timo, I'm trying to configure dovecot-2.1.15 master correctly regarding imap-login limits. I want to use service_count=0 and I'm starting with something like this : #default_process_limit = 100 #default_client_limit = 1000 service imap-login { [...] service_count = 0 process_min_avail = 8 vsz_limit = 1024M } -> Does it make sense to set a process_limit if service_count = 0 ? why ? Doesn't service_count = 0 mean that no additionnal imap-login process would be created (except for process_min_a...

Hi, What is the real difference between client and process limit? According to documentation (http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Services#Service_limits): client_limit: Maximum number of simultaneous client connections. If set to 0, default_client_limit is used instead. process_limit: Maximum number of processes that can exist for this service. If set to 0, default_process_limit is used instead. But what does "client connection" exactly means? Is a user (login)? Is a user opens a few TCP connections (as many clients do) are they coun...

Hello, As to be expected with low system limits, a warning may be written to the logs: master: Warning: fd limit (ulimit -n) is lower than required under max. load (256 < 1000), because of default_client_count Shouldn't it read "default_client_limit" instead of "default_client_count"? It seems that the warning is written only when reloading Dovecot, not upon Dovecot's startup. Is this deliberate? Thanks, Axel

...2.3 from the fresh installed binary (Repo from dovecot.org). As I found the failure above in the logfile I testet a lot, to figure out how to fix this, because for me it seemed to be some limit around 1000 connections/processes anywhere in the config. In the end I changed the default value of "default_client_limit" from ist default 1000 to 8192 and the problem was fixed for the moment. Now I'm trying to understand why this fixes the problem and what the difference is between 2.2 and 2.3. For me it seems like something changed in the architecture during the release change, but I didn't find anyth...
