Subject: forking problem cd..
Hi,
here's some more info on 'forking problem'. We have
experienced this again today. The server stopped
showing the prompt at imap/pop ports.
At that moment I was trying to run reconstruct,
however
it looks like it was unable to access
/var/imap/deliverdb/db/__db.005 file
the strace was showing timeouts on select() trying to
read from that file.
After restarting the master process, everything was
back to normal.
During this event the system was lightly loaded 1-2,
and only 100 processess where running.
Maybe this might be of some help to ppl who also have
this problem and know a bit more c than we do ;)
Helmut
