Gateway imap error - Invalid size tag received:

fbartels

i’ve just tried to import you data to see if i’ll see the same error, but for me (running 8,4,0,1103) the restore succeeds.

From the kopano-backup output he stumbles over MAPI_E_DISK_ERROR, which is simply your “MySQL has gone away”.

I’ve asked a developer to look into the data to see if he can find something odd about it.

edit: are you using by any chance attachments stored in the database?

edit2: can you send in your server.cfg and mysql configuration in as well?

Galen

Thanks for testing the restore quickly @fbartels.

Did you test on Debian 9 with the default mariadb installed?

Attachments are saved as files.

Edit: server.cfg and mysql files sent.

edit2: These are probably useful -

@Galen I personally tested on the latest ubuntu lts, but my college tried on debian 9 (not sure about his sql version, though). will forward the configuration to him.

fbartels

ok, so we’ve been toying around with this internally for a bit. One way we are able to trigger a similar error message is by reducing the innodb_log_file_size to 5mb, but with the mariadb version supplied in debian 9 it should actually default to 50mb.

apart from that your configuration pretty much looks like the default values, which is of course not good for performance either. I would therefore recommend to go through the suggestions at https://kb.kopano.io/display/WIKI/Tuning and then try again.

Galen

I’ve been testing this here with an fresh install of 16.04 LTS and with mysql 5.7 on Debian 9 instead of mariadb - both with default sql settings.

Both instances will restore the complete user set with only one warning thrown at the end of each user restore

backup - WARNING - skipping rule for unknown store/folder

I’m not sure what the skipped rule is as i can’t see any missing.

I’ll reload everything on Debian 9 afresh with mariadb and see if i can determine what the differences are.

Thanks for your assistance so far @fbartels

I can’t see anything between the mysql and mariadb settings that would break things. The innodb_log_file_size does default to 50M in maraiadb.

Pretty much everything that comes up in a search for the sql has gone away suggests that increasing max_allowed_packet or if timing out extend wait_timeout.

The log file time stamps show that there’s no waiting involved so it’s probably not that.

I’ve got these settings in mariadb at the moment and it still has errors with sql went way logged.

@Galen are you referring to another post than the one starting with “I can’t see anything between” because I can see this one even when i’m not logged in.

Galen

@fbartels The askimet spam error came up when i tried to edit the “I can’t see anything between” email. I tried to add “G” to the end but the spam message prohibit the edit

@Galen hm… since askimet is now also blocking me from editing posts i have deactivated it again.

Galen

Well, no matter what i try i cannot get KC to work with mariadb on Debian 9 without KC server throwing mysql has gone away errors during migration :(

Although it does work with the Oracle mysql packages installed it does bother me a little not using a database from the main Debian repository .

At least i have working options now and i know how to fix my broken user accounts :)
