I have checked and checked and checked again but I can't find a reason why this goes wrong. I'll build libpq.so tomorrow with debugging enabled so I can see more hopefully. I have saved a copy of the email, maybe it will give hints later on. It only happens with one user, always on the same message, nobody and nothing else. Very annoying. ====================================================================== ---------------------------------------------------------------------- mavetju - 27-Jun-05 12:35 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- I'm trying to run it under Electric Fence, but that just gives this and no abort: <tt>ElectricFence Aborting: free(28597e00): address not from malloc().</tt> 28597e00 is '(Y~\000', which doesn't look like a text string. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- aaron - 27-Jun-05 17:02 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Have you ruled out database problems? For completeness, I'd like to know what your PG version is, if it's hosted on the same FreeBSD machine, what the database charset is (the now-known unicode issue might be spilling over), and whatever other interesting tidbits you have. Also, have you run the various maintenance routines, such as vacuuming, analyzing, and checking for corruption? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- aaron - 23-Jul-05 07:00 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- I'm taking this off the active bugs list. Reopen if there's something more to report! ---------------------------------------------------------------------- mavetju - 30-Jul-05 16:34 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- I have a simple dbmail database now, with one user and three messages in it which causes the imapd to segfault. The database size is 700 Kb compressed. I will anonymize[sp] the data and make it available tomorrow. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- mavetju - 01-Aug-05 10:27 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The file uploaded explodes into a file 1.2Mb big: $ bzcat imap-crash.dump.5.4.bz2 | wc 1179 5000 1234377 To create the database from it, use: $ psql -U pgsql mail < imap-crash.dump.5.4 To see the crash, use the attached script: $ nc localhost 8143 < imap-crash Aug 1 18:26:51 k7 kernel: pid 96559 (dbmail-imapd), uid 65534: exited on signal 6 If you need more information, please let me know. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- mavetju - 10-Aug-05 03:00 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Is more information required for this problem?
