...mail is both forwarded and delivered locally just fine. But the sending account receives this error: "<mikkel at euro123.dk>: Command died with signal 6: "/opt/freeware/dovecot-20080102/libexec/dovecot/deliver"" Also deliver.log shows some errors (shown below). The ?nfs_flush_file_handle_cache_dir? error makes me wonder - seems like it tries to delete the homedir of the accounts maildir storage. Also it seems to me like a minor error since the delivery functions as it should, apart from the delivery error it returns and the core dump. Regards, Mikkel [root at mta01]# tail -f /log/deliver...

Hi chaps We're using the mbox_snarf plugin to snarf mail from /var/mail/%U to ~%U/Mail/inbox and using dotlocking on all accesses. This is on Solaris with NFS mounted home directories. We're getting a few (very few) of these for just a couple of users: Error: nfs_flush_file_handle_cache_dir: rmdir(/var/mail) failed: Device busy Which, having searched, I see some discussion of in the past, but not with 1.2. We're using: mail_privileged_group = mail For the /var/mail 'inboxes', which I thought would tackle this problem. Couple of questions, if you don't mind: 1. Do...

I'm looking for some help with an nfs error that is filling our logs. I get a constant stream of these messages: Jul 8 10:47:08 servername dovecot: [ID 107833 mail.error] IMAP(username): nfs_flush_file_handle_cache_dir: rmdir(/var/mail) failed: Device busy I have two dovecot IMAP servers. All mailboxes are NFS mounted. The INBOX is /var/mail and the rest are in /home/<user>/mail. It looks like work was done on this back in January: http://www.dovecot.org/list/dovecot-cvs/2008-January/010638.html A...

Hi, Looks like there are still some Solaris rmdir() warnings being logged to syslog in 1.1.rc1 in nfs_flush_file_handle_cache_dir(): Feb 23 13:09:51 sx3 dovecot: [ID 107833 mail.error] IMAP(ran04): \ nfs_flush_file_handle_cache_dir: rmdir(/var/mail) failed: Device busy Manual for rmdir on Solaris states: EBUSY The directory to be removed is the mount point for a mounted file system. We are using /v...

Hi, I am running dovecot 1.1.10 and 1.1.11 on Solaris 10, mailboxes are in mbox format and served by Solaris 10 NFSv3, the dovecot cache is on local disk. Some of my users always had above nfs error and their mailbox usually very big, over 100M, 400M, or even 800M. Grandy

Hi, I'm getting a lot of syslog spam on FreeBSD 10 from nfs_flush_file_handle_cache_dir where, apparently it tries to rmdir() the mountpoint of my mail storage. > Jul 4 00:04:44 mailhost dovecot: imap(user at example.com): Error: nfs_flush_file_handle_cache_dir: rmdir(/var/mail/vhosts/example.com) failed: Device busy We're using ZFS and have /var, /var/mail, /var/mail/vhosts...

Hello, I'm testing version 1.1.12 and occasionally there is Mar 18 14:40:44 imap2 dovecot: [ID 107833 mail.error] IMAP(xyz): nfs_flush_file_handle_cache_dir: rmdir(/home/xyz) failed: Device busy It seems that it is related to a crash of the previous imap process of that user. And it doesn't seem to cause any problems. So can it safely be ignored ? It is on Solaris 10. Index storage is local (UFS) and mailbox storage is NFS (mail_nfs_storage=yes)....

Hi, Under Solaris 8, the rmdir() command returns EEXIST instead of ENOTEMPTY if an rmdir() is attempted on a directory with files still in it. Dovecot 1.1beta9 currently gives tons of errors in the logfile as a result of the code not checking for the right error value. The function nfs_flush_file_handle_cache_dir() in nfs-worksarounds.c probably needs to reflect EEXIST as well as ENOTEMPTY. -- Dean Brooks dean at iglou.com

We are running Dovecot 2.0.12. It runs on only one server and /var/mail is local where all the INBOX's are stored. Users other IMAP folders are NFS mounted on the server. We see frequent Error: nfs_flush_file_handle_cache_dir: rmdir(/var/mail) failed: Device busy I know this error message has been around a long time. Should we still be seeing it on 2.0.12 with a local /var/mail. Perhaps the message is misleading and really complaining about folders other than INBOX that are NFS mounted. Our config has dovecot.con...

Hello, The "new" way of creating default mailboxes doesn't work for us. There seems to be a permission problem. We get this in the logs: imap(testuser at domain.com): Error: nfs_flush_file_handle_cache_dir: rmdir(/var/mail) failed: Device busy That error message has nothing to do with NFS (not used) or /var/mail and appears every time an app is requesting a list of folders via IMAP and only if we enable the autocreate feature. We're using mdbox, emails are delivered via LDA and the folder permi...
