Hi, Running dovecot 2.2.27 (c0f36b0) on Debian GNU/Linux stable (version 9.6), I'm trying to use the execute command in a sieve script, with direct execution (not service socket).
The script is executed, and returns (the process exits), but the dovecot-lda process seems to not notice, and thinks the script did not terminate. After sieve_execute_exec_timeout has passed, it sends a TERM, a bit later a KILL and then logs a failure. The "ps -Af f" looks like: S 0:00 \_ /usr/sbin/exim4 -Mc 1gMazS-0007IV-RB S 0:00 \_ /usr/lib/dovecot/dovecot-lda -f mas...@blitz.conuropsis.org Z 0:00 | \_ [foofilter] <defunct> S 0:00 \_ /usr/sbin/exim4 -Mc 1gMazS-0007IV-RB The dovecot debug log looks like: lda(user): Debug: Loading modules from directory: /usr/lib/dovecot/modules lda(user): Debug: Module loaded: /usr/lib/dovecot/modules/lib90_sieve_plugin.so lda(user): Debug: Effective uid=1000, gid=1000, home=/home/user lda(user): Debug: maildir++: root=/home/user/Maildir, index=, indexpvt=, control=, inbox=/home/user/Maildir, alt= lda(user): Debug: userdb lookup skipped, username taken from USER environment lda(user): Debug: none: root=, index=, indexpvt=, control=, inbox=, alt= lda(user): Debug: Destination address: u...@blitz.conuropsis.org (source: user@hostname) lda(user): Debug: sieve: Pigeonhole version 0.4.16 (fed8554) initializing lda(user): Debug: sieve: include: sieve_global is not set; it is currently not possible to include `:global' scripts. lda(user): Debug: sieve: Sieve imapsieve plugin for Pigeonhole version 0.4.16 (fed8554) loaded lda(user): Debug: sieve: Sieve Extprograms plugin for Pigeonhole version 0.4.16 (fed8554) loaded lda(user): Debug: sieve: file storage: Using active Sieve script path: /data/home/user/.dovecot.sieve lda(user): Debug: sieve: file storage: Using script storage path: /home/user/sieve lda(user): Debug: sieve: file storage: Relative path to sieve storage in active link: sieve/ lda(user): Debug: sieve: file storage: Using Sieve script path: /data/home/user/.dovecot.sieve lda(user): Debug: sieve: file script: Opened script `test-foofilter' from `/data/home/user/.dovecot.sieve' lda(user): Debug: sieve: Using the following location for user's Sieve script: /data/home/user/.dovecot.sieve lda(user): Debug: Mailbox stdin: Opened mail UID=1 because: header Message-ID (Cache file is unusable) lda(user): Debug: sieve: Opening script 1 of 1 from `/data/home/user/.dovecot.sieve' lda(user): Debug: sieve: Loading script /data/home/user/.dovecot.sieve lda(user): Debug: sieve: Script binary /data/home/user/.dovecot.svbin successfully loaded lda(user): Debug: sieve: binary save: not saving binary /data/home/user/.dovecot.svbin, because it is already stored lda(user): Debug: sieve: Executing script from `/data/home/user/.dovecot.svbin' lda(user): Debug: sieve: action execute: running program: foofilter lda(user): Debug: Mailbox stdin: Opened mail UID=1 because: mail stream lda(user): Debug: waiting for program `/usr/local/lib/dovecot/sieve-execute/foofilter' to finish after 0 msecs lda(user): Debug: program `/usr/local/lib/dovecot/sieve-execute/foofilter'(24669) execution timed out after 2000 milliseconds: sending TERM signal lda(user): Debug: program `/usr/local/lib/dovecot/sieve-execute/foofilter' (24669) did not die after 5000 milliseconds: sending KILL signal and an strace on the dovecot-lda process shows it is in an "epoll_wait(9 ....". The script is very simple: #! /bin/sh cat > /dev/null exit 1 Anyone has a clue? Thanks in advance. Best Regards, Lionel
