We continue to have problems with Cyrus. Another poster mentioned they have the same problem, but also didn't get any responses. Would one of the developers please investigate if this is a bug? What's going on? This is a real show stopper for us, and apparently for others as well.
Okay, we have Cyrus installed on FreeBSD 4.4-RELEASE: cyrus-imapd-2.0.16_1 The cyrus mail server, supporting POP3 and IMAP4 protocols cyrus-imapd-2.0.16_2 The cyrus mail server, supporting POP3 and IMAP4 protocols cyrus-sasl-1.5.24_7 RFC 2222 SASL (Simple Authentication and Security Layer) cyrus-sasl-1.5.24_8 RFC 2222 SASL (Simple Authentication and Security Layer) cyrus-sasl-1.5.27_2 RFC 2222 SASL (Simple Authentication and Security Layer) Every once in a while Cyrus stops responding to connections. Now, it does ACCEPT the connection, but it doesn't seem to send. Okay, so lets say that I stop Cyrus and it happens to work: working.. mercury# telnet mars 110 Trying 10.0.0.5... Connected to mars.actioncore.com. Escape character is '^]'. +OK <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Cyrus POP3 v2.0.16 server ready I get a new pop3d process: cyrus 1537 0.0 0.8 18836 2128 p0 S 9:52PM 0:00.03 pop3d: pop3d: mercury.actioncore.com[10.0.0.1] (pop3d) And a TCP connection: mars# netstat -f inet -ln | grep 10.0.0.1 tcp4 0 0 10.0.0.5.110 10.0.0.1.2060 ESTABLISHED If I wait a few seconds to several minutes, Cyrus stops working: mercury# telnet mars 110 Trying 10.0.0.5... Connected to mars.actioncore.com. Escape character is '^]' ^C And the connection does exist (the connection was made from 10.0.0.1): mars# netstat -f inet -ln | grep 10.0.0.1 tcp4 0 0 10.0.0.5.110 10.0.0.1.2057 ESTABLISHED Something I did notice is that when I run lsof that lsof seems to stall after it hits some for the pop3d processes. Not sure if that is important or just a fluke. What can we do to debug this further? What are some possible issues here to consider? DNS? Corrupted database files? What?
