every day i have to restart the cyrus imap daemon. sometimes more than once a day. still connected clients could receive emails but new clients can't get a connection, telnet on port 143 does no result in "* OK server Cyrus IMAP4 v2.1.18 server ready". it seems master does not spawn imapd any more. after restarting the master daemon everything is fine. this is the only error message in /var/log/imapd.log - SQUAT failed to open index file
that's no error. Just ignore it.
our server runs on FreeBSD 4.10-RELEASE-p18 following packages are installed: - cyrus-imapd-2.1.18_1 - cyrus-sasl-2.1.21 - cyrus-sasl-saslauthd-2.1.19 - postfix-2.1.4,1 is this a known problem? are there any solutions for this problem?
The most likely explanation would be a process limit in cyrus.conf. As an example, we have the following:
imap cmd="imapd" listen="imap.uni-koeln.de:imap" prefork=20 maxchild=300
So if there are already 300 imap processes, no further processes will be spawned.
