amavis does suicide

Good Day,

today I noticed I could not send mails, so I checked the logs in the panel, it shows:

Dec 13 08:51:41 server amavis[28558]: (!!)TROUBLE in child_init_hook: BDB no dbS: Lock table is out of available locker entries, . at (eval 97) line 27.

So I restarted postfix, but I made no changes/updates before which lead to this error.
Do you have any idea what's up suddenly with the mailserver? The mailqueue gets worked soo slow, I'll get some coffee now : )

 

Hello Till,

thanks for your fast reply:

should I try to fsck at next reboot?

okay I see, the filesystem is damaged:


fsck from util-linux-ng 2.17.2
e2fsck 1.41.12 (17-May-2010)
Warnung! /dev/hda1 ist eingehängt.
Warnung: Überspringe Journal-Wiederherstellung, da das Dateisystem im Nur-Lesen-Modus ist.
/dev/hda1 enthält ein fehlerhaftes Dateisystem, Prüfung erzwungen. >STRG+C > touch /forcefsck > reboot, let's see

 

/dev/hda1 on / type ext3 (rw,noatime,nodiratime,user_xattr,errors=remount-ro,usrjquota=aquota.user,grpjquota=aquota.group,jqfmt=vfsv0)
tmpfs on /lib/init/rw type tmpfs (rw,nosuid,mode=0755)
proc on /proc type proc (rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev)
sysfs on /sys type sysfs (rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev)
udev on /dev type tmpfs (rw,mode=0755)
tmpfs on /dev/shm type tmpfs (rw,nosuid,nodev)
devpts on /dev/pts type devpts (rw,noexec,nosuid,gid=5,mode=620)
fusectl on /sys/fs/fuse/connections type fusectl (rw,relatime)

now it should be fixed, no error messages for the moment.

thanks Till, have a nice day + christmas time
