I've been getting these as well. 3 times yesterday and once today on v16.3.6885 Enterprise running under Win2016. Hopefully someone at SM has some insight as to the cause and a fix.

Really disconcerting. So v16.3.6885 is not worth updating to?

We also had crashes about a week ago with SM Version 15.7.6821. We upgraded to 15.7.6855 and haven't crashed since. I'm not totally confident that the problem was fixed since it wasn't mentioned in the release notes.

With our problem, the SM service stopped and we received the same error in the Application log:
"The process was terminated due to an internal error in the .NET Runtime...with exit code 80131506"

Vote this thread up.

We had this error the day after we did the 6885 upgrade. Havent seen it since though.

Application: MailService.exe
Framework Version: v4.0.30319
Description: The process was terminated due to an internal error in the .NET Runtime at IP 00007FFE09B7F13D (00007FFE099D0000) with exit code 80131506.
From what I know, 80131506 is a ExecutionEngineException, which is a pretty bad internal exception in the .net runtime.

Had this issue come up today.   
Bad thing was no alert.  Just a hard crash.    Has there been any resolution?

Hey Scott, Just curious... Was there a .NET Runtime error in the Windows Application log? Below is the description we receive in our App log when the SM service stops:

"The process was terminated due to an internal error in the .NET Runtime...with exit code 80131506"

I experienced this crash for the first time a few days ago, referencing C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework64\v4.0.30319\clr.dll. Since it only happened once I didn't get my panties in a bunch but it happened again this afternoon. I haven't upgraded SM since September; still on 15.7.6754. As best as I can recall I don't think I've seen the SM service crash ever.

I think enough people chimed in here to have a comment or advice from SM. Happy to provide additional info if needed.

Thanks

It's hard to track down the reason for a crash like that, especially on older versions of the products. If nothing else, upgrade to the latest versions of 15.x and 16.x and see if the upgrades fix whatever is causign the crash to occur. 15.7.6754 is from June, and there were 6 releases after that. So an upgrade may be the fix you're looking for.

We havent experienced it since we moved off SM16. May have just been some one-off thing. Derek, yeah, everything I know about that exception is basically the worst thing you can have happen to your .net app.

Wondering here if there were any .NET updates from Microsoft that could have contributed to these crashes...  I haven't seen any crashes here yet, but also haven't run any MS patches in a month or so; the servers are dedicated to just SM, and I'm not worried about security issues related to Windows itself (SM v15.7.6821 - Server 2012 R2).

Nobody accesses the SM servers directly but me.

Yes, we started encountering this one this morning and have opened a ticket which is being investigated. It is reoccurring for us every 15 minutes or so with no obvious issues on the server. Perhaps worth logging a ticket as it may be a wider issue.

Nathan Replied
Manuel, out of interest do you have any users using ActiveSync to sync?
0
Manuel Martins Replied
Hi Nathan, yes we have almost 190 users using ActiveSync, mostly on smartphones but some of them use it on Outlook as well. Thanks

Nathan Replied
The ticket is still being investigated but I identified the crash occurred at the same time as one user synchronised using ActiveSync. I have deleted their device profile via webmail and blocked the IP so they cannot reconnect - mailservice.exe has not crashed for hours now. It is not conclusive but it does suggest it was the device (iPhone) inducing the crash.

This is good information to have on-hand if the problem shows up. Thanks!

In response to Nathan's comment above; I was able to confirm the problematic user has a couple of items that need correcting to prevent EAS sync issues like this again in the future: 

- User has many nested folders within the Inbox and this is not recommended as it can lead to Outlook (and other clients) sync instability. We recommend moving the nested folders out to the root, then completing a full resync of the user's mail client after removing the sync key from Settings>Connectivity>Synchronized Devices.
- User's account is 6GB in size, and this can also lead to sync instability in Outlook and similar mail clients. We recommend only syncing a period of 30 days worth of mail to prevent issues here. 

At this point we're going to try cleaning up the user's account, then have them resync to see if this behavior stays gone for good. We'll continue to update as more information becomes available so other users can benefit from this.

We're running SmarterMail Enterprise Edition 15.7.7009 and about once a week we experience the ".NET" crash. Has any 15.x users found a resolution? Also, has anyone experienced the .NET crash with the latest version of SM? Thanks.

Scott Forsythe We're running Version 15.7.6970 and we experience less .NET crashes since a few months.
I did not knew there was most recent release...

In fact, to work around somehow the issue, I have set the smartermail.exe service property to restart automatically if it crashes.

From where can I download version 15.7.7009? and is it the most recent release of SM 15?

I thought version 15.7.6970 is the last released version of SmarterMail 15.

Paul Blank Replied
Running 15.7.6970 Enterprise and have had no .NET issues of any kind with Server 2012 R2. The server is dedicated exclusively to SM. 

I am also running the free version of SM, same build, on a production Server 2012 R2, and no issues there either. This server is file, print, and full MS SQL server for corporate app. 

V15 is very stable on both. 

I was not aware of any later builds of V15.

We are also running 15.7.6970 and it is working fine. However, I just want to know what is the last released version of SmarterMail 15? is it 15.7.7009? If yes, then from where can I download this version?

Hi Scott

What change comes in this build 15.7.7009 ?

Thanks for the link Scott. 

Can anyone from SmarterTools tell us what changes or bug fixes were made in this custom build?

Just curious. We're running 15 with Exchange Active Sync (EAS). Is anybody running 15 with EAS and no problems? I'm wondering if I can isolate the .NET problem to EAS. Thanks for your replies.
