Issue [PPPM-5559] dovecot process_limit

daniel512

New Pleskian
Hey,

i run into a small issue today. changed process_limit for dovecot to 1024.

plesk17_dovecot_limitnlk52.png


the configuration file /etc/dovecot/conf.d/92-plesk-service-imap.conf is changed correctly:

Code:
/etc/dovecot/conf.d#cat 92-plesk-service-imap.conf
#ATTENTION!

#DO NOT MODIFY THIS FILE BECAUSE IT WAS GENERATED AUTOMATICALLY,

service imap {
service_count = 1
process_limit = 1024
}

after the change my logfile still says:

"dovecot: master: Warning: service(imap-login): process_limit (100) reached, client connections are being dropped"

according to http://wiki.dovecot.org/LoginProcess i had to change the values for imap-login too.

Code:
/etc/dovecot/conf.d# cat 99-service-imap-login.conf
service imap-login {
service_count = 1
process_limit = 1024
}

i guess it would be easier to update imap-login as well if you change the limits from plesk mail settings. i cannot submit a support ticket because of my license key.
