imaps has -1 workers?!?

[Patrick Radtke]

We had a bit of melt down on 2 of our frontends.

I've saw a lot of errors like

Nov 30 17:56:54 tofu imaps[2309]: imaps failed: [local]
ov 30 09:39:55 tofu master[4581]: imaps has -1 workers?!?
service imaps pid 4922: while trying to process message 0x2: not  
registered yet

Nov 30 17:59:10 tofu master[2250]: service pop3 pid 3258: while  
trying to process message 0x3: not registered yet
Nov 30 17:59:11 tofu master[2250]: service pop3 pid 3258 in UNKNOWN  
state: processing message 0x3


anyone know what would cause such a thing?

Running Cyrus 2.2.12 as a frontend


I upped the open files ulimit incase thats what was causing the problems

thanks,

Patrick
