Right, Frontend Proxd crashed and I also do not believe that this is a physical connection problem. The line is well monitored and not overloaded, not even under any "load". After a "reconstruct" , which runs fine, the problem persists. But an upgrade is not so easy. We use the original RPM package 2.2.12-8.1 and upgrading to 2.3.x means building a complete new package from next RH EL5.0 SRPM. We have ~ six hundred users on our servers, direktly connected to the backend w/o problems ;o) Rgrds RPr Alain Spineux schrieb: > Hi > > Despite the error message, I dont thing this is a connection problem. > It looks like the "Fimap" crashed and closed the connection. > > Try to "reconstruct" the mailbox(es) and see if the problem persist. > You could also try to upgrade to last imap version. > > Anyway this is a bug, imap should not crash without any appropriate > error message. > > > On 9/17/07, Reinhard Proessler <rpr-listen@xxxxxx> wrote: > >> Hello >> >> maybe my posting last week was unclear: >> >> Between our Murder frontend and backend are heavy connection problems: >> >> --- >> >> >From log under /var/lib/<frontend>/logs/<mailboxname>/26754: >> >> <1190021110<p7dp SELECT "Drafts"^M >> >>> 1190021110>* BYE Fatal error: Lost connection to selected backend^M >>> >> Im maillog: >> >> master[26744]: service Fimap pid 26754 in BUSY state: terminated abnormally >> >> --- >> >> Both machines running RH ES4.0, latest patch applied. >> Distance between machine 120km, 4Mb connection. >> >> Any hints or suggestions are welcome! >> >> Reinhard Proessler >> >> ---- >> Cyrus Home Page: http://cyrusimap.web.cmu.edu/ >> Cyrus Wiki/FAQ: http://cyrusimap.web.cmu.edu/twiki >> List Archives/Info: http://asg.web.cmu.edu/cyrus/mailing-list.html >> >> > > > ---- Cyrus Home Page: http://cyrusimap.web.cmu.edu/ Cyrus Wiki/FAQ: http://cyrusimap.web.cmu.edu/twiki List Archives/Info: http://asg.web.cmu.edu/cyrus/mailing-list.html
