See amavisd-new web site, search for:
  Lock table is out of available locker entries

The explanation given by Gary is the most likely cause.

Check your version of Convert::UUlib. Update to version 1.05 if it is
older. You could completely disable the use of BerkelyDB if you are
willing to use a less efficient method of caching and also don't use
SNMP or amavisd-nanny.

$enable_db = 1;  # enable use of BerkeleyDB/libdb (SNMP and nanny)
$enable_global_cache = 1;# enable use of libdb-based cache if $enable_db=1

One would set $enable_db = 0; to disable.
I have heard it decreases overall performance.

Other older posts have mentioned database tweaks (search for locker)
but it appears Convert::UUlib may have been the problem.

[AMaViS-user] amavisd-new: troubles with lock table

2005-07-13 Thread Owen Marshall
Greetings list,

We run several servers to try and filter the tidal wave of spam. This
morning, we saw this in the maillog of one of our servers.

Jul 11 08:00:00 smtp5 amavis[22323]: TROUBLE in child_init_hook: BDB
no dbS: Lock table is out of available locker entries, No such file or
directory. at (eval 36) line 25.

And we got no mail out of that server :-)

Pretty obvious problem, at least. We restarted amavisd, and no
problems after that.

But my big questions are:
What caused this to happen?
What can I do to prevent this in the future?

Thanks,
Owen
