Hello, Maildirlock seems to panic on locking: [root at centos7 home]# /usr/libexec/dovecot/maildirlock "/home/user/imap/domain.com/email/Maildir" 10 Panic: BUG: No IOs or timeouts set. Not waiting for infinity. Error: Raw backtrace: /usr/lib/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(+0xd90ee) [0x7f5bf02f10ee] -> /usr/lib/...

Dear all, Dovecot upgraded from v2.2.36 to v2.3.8 There is no problem with the configuration, but the lock directory seems to have an error.

Hello, Aki created this patch a while ago: http://files1.directadmin.com/services/custombuild/patches/maildirlock-crash.patch It works perfectly to fix the issue :) Regarding dsync - I don't think it's a good replacement in all the cases, is it? We use maildirlock extensively for compression of email folders (when zlib compression is enabled in dovecot, old emails remain untouched). -- Best regards,...

It seems something like this has been reported already, however, I was unable to find any changelog entries or patches: http://dovecot.2317879.n4.nabble.com/maildirlock-time-unit-td65122.html -- Best regards, Martynas Bendorius > On 12 Apr 2019, at 01:08, Martynas Bendorius <martynas at martynas.it> wrote: > > Hello, > > Maildirlock seems to panic on locking: > [root at centos7 home]# /usr/libexec/dovecot/maildirlock "/home/user/i...

What is the time unit maildirlock will accept? I've tried 20s, 20 sec, 20 secs, 20 seconds, all results in: Fatal: Invalid timeout value: 20s And if you don't specify time unit you just get: Panic: BUG: No IOs or timeouts set. Not waiting for infinity. This is on 2.3.3. 2.2 worked fine without needing time unit specified...

Hello, Was thinking it would be wise to backup my server, in case anything "bad" ever happened, so that I could quickly get up to speed. 1. clone the whole drive -- which might be the best to ensure I keep the whole system working. 2. But, what about, if I just wanted to backup my Email server components? Postfix - which I think is just config files, and Dovecot - I think there is a

Hi, I want to do a simple backup of my maildir. I read here that maildirlock is not to count on in the future and the recommended option was to use doveadm backup. However, it seems that this requires to setup another dovecot server. My questions are: - How much to I need to configure this new server? Do I need to setup user by user, or even install postfix (that'...
