Postfix is dying on one of my servers almost nightly. This system
is running CentOS5 with postfix-2.3.3-2.
In the morning (after noticing it died) I try to run `service
postfix stop` and I get a failed start. Running `ps ax | grep
postfix` I can see one process still running for postfix. After
killing this, I am able to run `service postfix start`.
Which process is it? smtpd? master?
Master
Do you sometimes find anvil missing? I wonder if you can strace master
and see what it is doing or waiting for...
This happened again this morning. I see the anvil process died -
22815 ? Z 0:13 [anvil] <defunct>
# strace -p 22799
Process 22799 attached - interrupt to quit
futex(0xb7bc2bec, FUTEX_WAIT, 2, NULL <unfinished ...>
That's all there was from strace.
