Aug 21, 2014 12:47 AM in response to Linc Davis

I have the same problem, too.


After upgrading OS X mavericks and server app for Mavericks, problem is occurred.


To my best knowledge....

This error log is generated when a user is connected to dovecot with outlook client.

It is regardless of protocol (imap, pop3).

It doesn't occur error when the same user connects with other client such as gmail's pop3 service, thunderbird, apple's mail app, etc.

So, I think MS outlook client doesn't follow standard protocol exactly, and Dovecot's child process is crashed.

(However, users have no problem to send/receive mails, just dirty logs are generated...)

Aug 21, 2014 7:34 AM in response to KAIST ITC

I have been working on this issue. Sorry I haven't posted about it in a while.


We have two users that use Outlook. Moving them off Outlook onto either our web client, Roundcube, or Thunderbird, seems to solve the problem.


Also, we found that turning off all authentication methods other than the one that we are using, for us MD 5, seems to help as well.


They only way we could get Outlook to play nice with Mavericks Mail Server is to authenticate with clear text, which is obviously not ideal. Even with that method, it requires making some changes to mail server via the terminal, as Outlook is looking for a fully qualified domain name. We also tried editing the windows registry, which allows for a fully qualified domain name, but then other programs on windows that use internet services are broken.


The best solution is to move away from Outlook.


Also, during this process, we never had issues with mail. Just the dirty log entries.

Sep 17, 2014 10:16 AM in response to Tony Stinson

I have worked directly with Tony Stinson (the original poster on this thread) in looking at this issue, and we have now ruled out OD corruption, by destroying the OD database and reimporting a plaintext export of the user records from a WGM export. After this destroy/recreate of OD, these frequent auth crashes continue, and crash logs look just the same as they did prior.


mail-err continues to log: auth: Fatal: master: service(auth): child 74303 killed with signal 11 (core dumps disabled)


and auth crash logs continue to indicate:


Exception Type: EXC_BAD_ACCESS (SIGSEGV)

Exception Codes: KERN_INVALID_ADDRESS at 0x0000000000000000

Oct 28, 2014 2:31 PM in response to Digital-Cohesion

So after further investigation, it seems that like Tony, I found that Outlook is now happy if we use the full dns name of the server along with the user name. So instead of the username being joeuser, now we have joeuser@osxservername.domain.com. Outlook is no longer throwing up multiple login dialogs and the users are happier. This only changed recently, maybe after the 3.2.1 update, but not certain of the exact time frame.


As far as the crashing of the auth process, that still seems to be happening quite regularly. It doesn't seem to be causing any issues though.


I kind of wish Apple was still charging good money for Server. Seems like now that it's cheap, it's cheap. :-(

Nov 19, 2014 2:04 PM in response to magnusviri

Yes, my situation exactly. Yosemite 10.10 Mail.app contacting Mavericks Server 3.2.2 causes a LOT of crash reports. They are all Segmentation Faults at kernal address 0x0 (i.e., a likely dovecot/auth bug). The number of faults is so large on certain activities (like a full IMAP sync that the system becomes pretty much unusable).


I don't see any crashes for IMAP access from Mavericks Mail.app or from iOS devices (8.1.1). I tried replacing just the auth binary with an older version but either I botched the job or the auth binary itself is not the entire trigger because I got identical crash results. The older binary was from the immediately previous server version.
