mail-storage.c:2222:mailbox_copy assertion failed: (!ctx->unfinished)

[Giel van Schijndel]

Hi,

I see a lot of crashes in my syslog lately. Specifically a sequence of
errors exactly like this (only the timestamp differs).
> Nov 10 21:29:53 khitomer dovecot: imap-login: Login: user=<user at hostname>, method=PLAIN, rip=XXXX, lip=YYYY, mpid=ZZZZ, TLS, session=<TTTT>
> Nov 10 21:29:53 khitomer dovecot: imap(user at hostname): Panic: file mail-storage.c: line 2222 (mailbox_copy): assertion failed: (!ctx->unfinished)
> Nov 10 21:29:53 khitomer dovecot: imap(user at hostname): Fatal: master: service(imap): child 35108 killed with signal 6 (core not dumped)

I have the mail storage on ZFS, one separate filesystem per user and
another for the lucene indexes. I.e. these are separate ZFS filesystems
(not pools):
> /var/mail/vhosts/%d/%n
> /var/mail/vhosts/%d/%n/lucene-indexes

Any idea what could be going wrong?
