I solved the login problem by removing "staff" from my
account in vipw.
But now I'm back at the Out of memory problem.
Sep 22 15:36:02 xxx dovecot: imap-login: Login: user=<yyy>, method=PLAIN,
rip=127.0.0.1, lip=127.0.0.1, mpid=11825, TLS, session=<HvUtiKcDLQB/AAAB>
Sep 22 15:36:18 xxx dovecot: imap(yyy): Fatal: pool_system_realloc(4294967296):
Out of memory
Sep 22 15:36:18 xxx dovecot: imap(yyy): Fatal: master: service(imap): child
11825 returned error 83 (Out of memory (service imap { vsz_limit=4096 MB }, you
may need to increase it) - set CORE_OUTOFMEM=1 environment to get core dump)
I don't understand how this memory error is possible, since
for this test I am using a completely empty mail directory
in my $HOME, and in /var/mail I have tried both with no
mailbox and with a very small mailbox. Something in the
imap code seems to be running completely astray.
As before, if I comment out this line in my .muttrc the
memory problem does not appear at start of mutt:
set spoolfile="imap://localhost/INBOX"
Which seems logical, since that line triggers imap.
I tried /etc/rc.d/dovecot stop and then start, and
I also tried rebooting.
I have this in /etc/login.conf:
dovecot:\
:datasize=infinity:\
:openfiles-cur=1500:\
:openfiles-max=2048:\
:tc=daemon:
And this as the last line of /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf:
default_vsz_limit = 4096 M
This is my uname -a after the build yesterday:
OpenBSD xxx 5.5 GENERIC.MP#0 amd64
I have these two in pkg_info (I have 49 entries in total
in pkg_info so it's not very much, I can attach the whole
list if you need to see it):
dovecot-2.2.10
mutt-1.5.22p0v0-sidebar-compressed
Any ideas?
Thanks!
Peter
