Hi My dovecot started with the error below. What's the most possible reason for the error? ?2013-08-28 11:41:40 ?master: Info: Dovecot v2.2.5 starting up (core dumps disabled) ?2013-08-28 11:42:00 ?anvil: Fatal: Error reading configuration: Timeout reading config from /var/run/dovecot/config ?2013-08-28 11:42:00 ?master: Error: service(anvil): command startup failed, throttling for 2 secs

When I try to install Anvil Studio (Midi progam) under WIne, the Anvil installer gives me the error Code: ActiveX component can't create object and crashes (this is under Vector Linux 5.9 Gold). Can anyone give me a clue what to do ?

Since the changesets: http://hg.dovecot.org/dovecot-2.0/rev/9bec70f26637 http://hg.dovecot.org/dovecot-2.0/rev/75b48fa3aec4 there is another problem.

Hi, I'm strugling to find some documentation on dovecot's anvil service and/or its penalties (that can be checked with doveadm penalty) ... but i'm not finding anything on that. is there any documentation on anvil/penalties that i should check other than a few messages on the mailing list archive ? thanks ! -- Atenciosamente / Sincerily, Leonardo Rodrigues

Hi, Is there any way of making sure the anvil service, used to penalty login fails, is working ? I dont see anything on the logs regarding it neither have it configured. It's not on my configuration files, but it can be seen on a 'dovecot -a' dump. Should it be logging something ? Should i have enabled it somehow ? Thanks for the answers.

Has anvil gone away in 2.3.2.1? I ask only because I don't find an example of anvil in the conf.d files anymore and I'm migrating from 2.2.10 version to 2.3.2.1.

Hi, I'm using dovecot as a local mail store on my laptop using preauth tunneling. It turns out I almost don't even need to start dovecot at all; the only reason it needs to be running is so that FTS indexing can be invoked. And because I don't want it to run any services, I can run it as an unprivileged user, so long as I turn them all off: # We don't want to serve any

Hi all, we have a problem about anvil, it seems that when we have a high load the dovecot stops to work. Sometimes it is sufficient to make a dovecot reload, but sometimes we have to restart it. These are the lines related to anvil in the dovecot.log: [root at secchia ~]# grep anvil /var/log/dovecot.log | more Oct 26 11:13:55 anvil: Error: net_accept() failed: Too many open files Oct 26

Hello, just upgraded one of my testing machine from dovecot 1.2.15 to 2.0.7.

Is there some way to tail -f a file and print whatever tail -f gets to the browser on the client side. I''m thinking periodically call remote can do it. Is there some shortcut method, or does one have to store the cursor line that they read up to from the file last time, and then start reading again from the new cursor on the next periodically call remote. thanks -- Posted via

Hi guys, I''ve been reading through the forums and came across a response for adding :with condition to a periodically call remote. I tried it out and couldn''t make it work. Would anyone have a sample of how to use this conditional structure with periodically call remote? If not, does anyone have any idea how to add a condition to a periodically call remote? What I need is to

I've noticed something strange with a 3.4 test box that is basically just sitting here in the lab. I've got it configured to forward me the Logwatch run (which seems to go off at 4:02am by default). Every couple of days, that logwatch run goes missing. I haven't really dug down to find out if the cron job is crapping out or if postfix is dropping the report on the floor. Is

Hi, It seems that my dovecot installation periodically stops authenticating users. Restarting dovecot resolves the issue temporarily. I'm authenticating via PAM to OpenLDAP on a CentOS 4 box. I've seen several related posts about this issue but no resolution. My logs show: Sep 15 03:58:24 server01 dovecot: imap-login: Can't connect to auth server at default: Resource

I put up a demo of a new open source webapp this evening and posted about it to a coupel of lists. I''m getting a bit of traffic to the application but not that much, and webrick keeps dying off. No error messages, no core dumps, nothing. The only thing I can think of is that I had it bound to 0.0.0.0 <http://0.0.0.0>. It''s been about 15 minutes since I changed it to a
