Thanks for your help.
I checked the system, and found out that there were 2 places that initiate
svscan. The one is /etc/inittab, and the other is /etc/init.d/svscan.
Life with Qmail (installation document) misses the point that
daemontool installs /etc/init.d/svscan and that it requests the readers
to put a commanline in the /etc/inittab.
So I removed the command line in the inittab file.
And the svscan problem went away. (Thanks for your hint.)
But I still have another problem unsolved yet.
I booted the system again, and still sees a warning message keep scrolling up.
It is "supervise:fatal:unable to start supervise/run:file does not exist".
The directories related are as follows.
1. /service
# ls -l /service
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 31 6¿ù 16 18:05 qmail-send ->
/var/qmail/supervise/qmail-send
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 32 6¿ù 16 18:05 qmail-smtpd ->
/var/qmail/supervise/qmail-smtpd
drwx------ 3 root root 4096 6¿ù 16 23:16 supervise
(There is another supervise inside the supervise directory.)
2. /var/qmail/supervise/qmail-send/supervise
3. /var/qmail/supervise/qmail-smtpd/supervise
And for more information, I grepped the ps.
1. ps ax |grep supervise
315 ? S 0:00 supervise supervise
317 ? S 0:00 supervise qmail-send
318 ? S 0:00 supervise log
319 ? S 0:01 supervise qmail-smtpd
320 ? S 0:00 supervise log
4194 ? S 0:00 supervise qmail-smtpd
4195 ? S 0:00 supervise supervise
2. ps ax |grep qmail
317 ? S 0:00 supervise qmail-send
319 ? S 0:01 supervise qmail-smtpd
321 ? S 0:00 qmail-send
323 ? S 0:00 /usr/local/bin/multilog t /var/log/qmail/smtpd
324 ? S 0:00 /usr/local/bin/multilog t /var/log/qmail
438 ? S 0:00 qmail-lspawn ./Mailbox
439 ? S 0:00 qmail-rspawn
440 ? S 0:00 qmail-clean
4514 ? S 0:00 supervise qmail-smtpd
Please give me another help.
Warm regards,
