[Bug 731878] Re: amavis force-reload crashes amavis
Seems it is indeed a bug, users on the mailing list could verify it. See this thread: http://lists.amavis.org/pipermail/amavis- users/2011-March/69.html It seems to be directly related to the number of maximum instances. netstat doesn't seem to give helpful information: == floeff@myserver:~$ sudo netstat -a | grep 10024 [sudo] password for floeff: tcp0 0 localhost:10024 *:* LISTEN floeff@myserver:~$ sudo /etc/init.d/amavis force-reload Stopping amavisd: amavisd-new.

[Bug 731878] Re: amavis force-reload crashes amavis
Hi Florian The 'restart' and 'force-reload' commands both stop and start the amavis daemon which would explain why you have seen similar behaviour from both commands. I suspect that this is caused by the port not being fully released before the new instance of the daemon tries to bind to the port - this condition would result in this type of message. Symptomatically I could reproduce this issue by stopping amavis, using netcat to listen on port 10024 and then starting amavis. Unfortunately that does not tell us what is causing this issue. Perhaps you could capture the number of open connections to amavis prior to restarting or force reloading to see if we can spot a pattern: sudo netstat -a | grep 10024 It would also be helpful to know which version of Ubuntu and Amavis you are using - you can do this automatically using apport: apport-collect 731878 Thanks ** Changed in: amavisd-new (Ubuntu) Status: New = Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to amavisd-new in ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/731878 Title: amavis force-reload crashes amavis -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
