Topic: [Resolved] email client error

[JoshuaR]

Hi all,

I've recently setup a new SME 8 server to replace my version 7 server that failed. I've configured mail, it is sending and receiving correctly (through webmail). However, when I connect through Outlook or Thunderbird I'm getting the attached error.


I've tried going through the pop3 log files, but I can't see any indicators.

My mail setup is attached also, I'm pretty sure nothing is wrong with it because it's they're the same settings as my previous server.




Any tips would be appreciated


Cheers,
Josh

Hi all,

I didn't find anything in searching the forums, but I only just thought to check if someone had raised a bug request. Turns out it's already been reported and I can confirm the fix listed works!

For future reference if anyone searches the forums for this:

'Your e-mail server rejected your login. Verify your user name and password for this account in Account Settings. The server responded: checkpassword-pam: error while loading shared libraries: libaudit.so.0: failed to map segment from shared object: Cannot allocate memory.

The fix is:

Change the 10000000 in /var/service/{pop3,pop3s}/run files.  Currently we are giving them 10M of memory for each daemon.  I'd up this in 5M or 10M increments until the error goes away.

I raised the memory to 100MB, restarted the services, and it fixed the issue (I didn't increase in increments, just bumped it up).

Many thanks to Shad L. Lords for the fix, and to the SME team for the time and effort put into this new release!


Cheers,
Josh
