Summary:                    DBMail stopped working after upgrading to mysql 5.7
Description: 
After upgrading mysql to 5.7.12 dbmail stopped working.
Inserts into the database are no longer possible.

Using mysql and executing the same statements from the mysql-client,
everything works fine.

All other applications on the machine are runnning fine, expect dbmail.

dbmail-util -a shows no errors.

Even trying to create a new user with dbmail-users ends up in:

And then nothing more happens.

Mysql shows no errors in the logfiles.

The severity is "block", but i can't change it :(

I agree with you, this is a major blocker. The SQL files are also incorrect
(datetime default), but we're able to fix that manually. 

Although I'm not experienced with C, it seems to hang around here
https://github.com/pjstevns/dbmail/blob/f5b73b342b4a6cae1bb15340e5da7330e29319c1/src/dm_db.c#L3976
. Not sure why - yet.

---------------------------------------------------------------------- 
Now I'm pretty sure it has to do with the transactions. Removing aliases
works fine
(https://github.com/pjstevns/dbmail/blob/f5b73b342b4a6cae1bb15340e5da7330e29319c1/src/modules/authsql.c#L571-L589),
but it hangs on removing a user
(https://github.com/pjstevns/dbmail/blob/f5b73b342b4a6cae1bb15340e5da7330e29319c1/src/dm_db.c#L4006-L4024).

---------------------------------------------------------------------- 
Tomorrow I'll try compiling dbmail so I'm able to test some code changes
(currently using from debian packages). Could also be a bug in libzdb,
because PreparedStatement_execute seems to hang when it's a transaction.

This behaviour accours on every "insert"
Even new mails are no longer written to the DB

Please consider donating your patches so others can share in your success
and avoid issues that upgrading to mysql 5.7 brings.

Cross my heard and hope to die: i won't publish my fixes.
I have been waiting 4 month that someone of the community might take care
of this bug and none did.

so, in my point of view, this project is dead.

i am thinking about creating a fork and keep on maintaining, but donating
to this project in the current status isn't worth it.

I'm sorry you feel that way, I would have offered more help but am running
dbmail on FreeBSD with PostgreSQL, MySQL here is still 5.6 and as my life
is falling apart am unlikely to upgrade anytime soon. Paul Stevens put so
much effort in last year he's almost burnt out. Not sure where the others
are.
Please do fork and maintain, it's a great project, reasonably stable and
with plenty of opportunities for improvement.

Hey px3 might I politely ask you to reconsider? I ran into this yesterday
and am now stuck with a broken service. I'm running dbmail 3.2.3 with MySQL
5.7 (switched servers and used the opportunity to use a new MySQL version)

Sorry flds23, but:
"Both IC&S and NFG provide commercial support and consultancy for this
product. For more information about this you can send an email to
i...@ic-s.nl and/or supp...@nfg.nl."

They should probably be able to fix your problem.

Hi flds23,
Have you tried the latest from https://github.com/pjstevns/dbmail
It has a number of fixes including transactions.
Else can you increase logging and check MySQL logs to see if there is any
additional information.

Hi Alan,

I'm using the latest version of the FreeBSD port, which got a whole bunch
of fixes from git recently
https://svnweb.freebsd.org/ports?view=revision&revision=434749

I just ran a quick diff of that against master and there are very minimal
changes left in git, mostly Makefile.in and a bit of stuff regarding
systemd. So I don't think that will change anything, but i'm willing to try
if you think I should.

dbmail locks up hard with this line:

Mar 13 18:39:25 xxx.xxx dbmail-lmtpd[50591]: [0x806023c00] Database:[db]
db_query(+414): [0x80603bcc0] [INSERT INTO dbmail_physmessage
(internal_date) VALUES (TIMESTAMP('2017-03-13 17:39:25'))]

The only thing i can do is kill -9, it won't respond to SIGTERM.

I think it has something to do with transactions, as i cannot do certain
operations on the dbmail DB while the process is stuck. As soon as it's
killed the other operations finish successfully.

In the meantime I moved my dbmail database to another MySQL 5.6 Server, but
it would be great to get this fixed.

There is nothing in mysql logs.

Thanks for your time.
Florian (f...@freebsd.org)

Good to hear you have it working with a 5.6 server. FreeBSD here though
with PostgreSQL.
Currently maxed out but will look into this, probably early next week.

It has nothing to do with transactions.

DBMail simply stops on every (!) insert, regardless, what you are trying to
insert into the DB.

You won't find log-entrys in mysql, nor in dbmail.
