Description wolson 2009-12-07 18:00:15 UTC
I did a portupgrade from vpopmail 5.4.27 to 5.4.28 and the next day in my security reports I was seeing multiple core dumps of vdelivermail like so:

cw-melb-02.siz.com.au kernel log messages:
+++ /tmp/security.vxyq3ILQ      2009-12-06 03:04:44.000000000 +1100
+pid 86745 (vdelivermail), uid 1003: exited on signal 11 (core dumped)

+pid 86810 (vdelivermail), uid 1003: exited on signal 11 (core dumped)
+pid 86835 (vdelivermail), uid 1003: exited on signal 11 (core dumped)

The same thing continues on and on within the report. I did some minor troubleshooting and when investigating the qmail-send logs I would see this multiple times:

2009-12-05 18:57:49.800479500 delivery 161995: deferral: client_connect:_warning:_config_begin_failed/Segmentation_fault_(core_dumped)/

I uninstalled and reinstalled vpopmail with the following commands:

# cd /usr/ports/mail/vpopmail
# make CONFIGURE_ARGS="--enable-logging=p --enable-onchange-script"
# make install clean

and I was still getting the error. I tried it without the --enable-onchange-script and even just a plain make install clean on the vpopmail port. I did about an hours worth of troubleshooting and decided to portdowngrade to 5.4.27. Once I did this, My mail deliveries started working again and my queue was dropping.

Fix: 

I could not fix it. I had to downgrade to vpopmail 5.4.27 until this fix is addressed.
How-To-Repeat: Install vpopmail accoring to this guide:

Or if you don't have qmail installed, you would need to start at the beginning of the guide:

Can you check if this is still the case with the upstream fix in 
vpopmail-5.4.30_1 that I just committed?

The PR submitter reports success, but Cristiano Deana is still having 
some trouble.  I'll look into it a bit deeper.

  Another attempt at fixing the vpopmail-5.4.30 local delivery problem:
  fix the upstream Makefile's logic and actually install vusage.conf, while
  disabling the vusagec/vusaged check since we don't even install vusaged
  on FreeBSD.

Oops, sorry, it's bug-followup@, not bugs-followup@.

Hm, that's interesting.  Can you please verify that you have
a /usr/local/vpopmail/etc/vusagec.conf file, and that is has
the (uncommented) "Server:" and "Disable = true;" lines?

G'luck,
Peter

Thit sentence is not self-referential because "thit" is not a word.

that's the problem.
freebsd ports install a vusagec.conf-dist and not the vusagec.conf.
cp vusagec.conf-dist vusagec.conf
and it's all right.

thanks for your waste of time

Ooooooooooops...

No, thanks for YOUR wasted time!  This was actually the whole point of
the vpopmail-5.4.30_2 update - to install vusagec.conf as a disabled
file.  Unfortunately, I forgot that merely adding it to the packing
list with an @exec copy command would not let it be installed for people
who do "make install" for the port :)  Not quite sure how this fix
slipped by in my testing :(

It should be fine now, in vpopmail-5.4.30_3.  You could test it by
removing the /usr/local/vpopmail/etc/vusagec.conf file and installing
vpopmail-5.4.30_3 - it should copy the .dist file now.  Alternatively,
you might not do it, since it's exactly what you have done already :)

Once again, thanks for bearing with me on this, and sorry for all
the time it took to fix!

G'luck,
Peter
