Haraka mailserver crashing after sending or receiving email

[ccfu]

I have noticed that the mailserver is crashing and immediately restarting regularly after successfully sending or receiving email. Anyone any idea why this is happening and / or what I can do to rectify it? This is what I get in the logs:

I have also such crashes in my logs, but not after every e-mail sent or received, but sometimes.

This might be related to https://github.com/haraka/Haraka/issues/3118

@nebulon

Looks like it might be related, yes. Are there any plans to update the mailserver version in Cloudron soon? I don't think it is having a negative effect on mail operations but it is annoying. The error seems to be linked to pooling, which has been changed in version 3.

[girish]

The current stable version of Cloudron uses Haraka 83a952b009cda .

We already updated Haraka to 3.0.1 which maybe fixes this issue. The pooling code is now gone - https://github.com/haraka/Haraka/pull/3115 .

@ccfu @Kubernetes maybe we can try to update the mail container in your servers to see if things work better now? Otherwise, we have to debug this further. Can you write to us at support@cloudron.io ?

[girish]

Following up from support: server was patched manually to latest version of Haraka.

@girish I also see this error on one of my cloudrons.. Will your patch soon be released in an update?

[girish]

@opensourced yes, should be out next week along with 7.4
