similar to: Leaked files in maildir "tmp" after vsz_limit crashes

I encountered this error on FreeBSD 9.3 with dovecot2-2.2.13_3 Short version; vsz_limit is 18,447 PB and it ran out of RAM. Suggestions for change?

Hello, I would like to ask on suggested vsz_limit values. Is there any way of calculating such values? How should we determine them? I don't want to risk wrong values (and possible errors) on a production system, if I upgrade to 2.0.16 where vsz_limit values are enforced (I read release notes)! If there is no standard way of calculation, could someone please check the following info and

You could also add it as setting for the fts_xapian plugin parameters?

Seems I had forgotten that you can use src/lib/restrict.h, in particular, restrict_get_process_size() to figure out the limit. You can combine this with getrusage to find out current usage.

Duh... src/lib/restrict-process-size.h Should be in the installed include files as well, /usr/include/dovecot/restrict-process-size.h Aki > On 06/11/2020 15:56 Joan Moreau <jom at grosjo.net> wrote: > > > Hello > I can't find "src/lib/restrict.h" .

Latest Mercurial seems to miss defaults for some services e.g. 'managesieve' and 'lmtp'. Example error message upon start: dovecotdoveconf: Fatal: Error in configuration file /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf: service(managesieve-login): vsz_limit is too low failed! Regards Thomas

We're running 2.2.24 with fts_lucene and I wonder why indexer-working can be out-of-memory even with vsz_limit=750 MB ?!

How about you try moving the mail into another folder on daily basis, this way the INBOX would stay nice and empty. doveadm move -u archive at company.com Archive MAILBOX INBOX SENTBEFORE todays-date Aki On 16.02.2018 06:19, Terence Lau wrote: > > Bump. > > ? > > Any advice would be most appreciated. > > ? > > Thanks. > > ? > > *From:*Terence Lau >

Hi, We've been getting these types or errors for quite a while now ... Fatal: master: service(lmtp): child 63477 returned error 83 (Out of memory (service lmtp { vsz_limit=4096 MB }, you may need to increase it) ... and these errors have been decreasing in occurrence as we increased the default_vsz_limit. Which is good but I would like to get some advice on how I could possibly eliminate

Hi all; I've upgraded a ring of dovecot directors from 2.2.15 to 2.2.36. After the upgrade I've got some instability: a few time per day per server, seemly at random, the auth process stop responding and the clients cannot authenticate any more: Sep 6 14:45:51 imap-front13 dovecot: pop3-login: Warning: Auth process not responding, delayed sending initial response (greeting):
