I DIDN'T have one when the errors started. I also checked an old snapshot of the Qmail server and it didn't have one either. Despite that, I tried creating one to see if it would resolve the problem. No such luck, so I removed it again. > Here's what I have in mine (COS6 with new packages): > [root@tacs-mail ~]# ls -l /var/qmail/supervise/ > total 20 > drwx-----T 4 qmaill qmail 4096 Apr 7 10:24 clamd > drwx-----T 4 qmaill qmail 4096 Mar 24 11:29 send > drwx-----T 4 qmaill qmail 4096 Mar 24 11:29 smtp > drwx-----T 4 qmaill qmail 4096 Apr 7 14:58 spamd > drwx-----T 4 qmaill qmail 4096 Mar 24 11:29 submission Yes, I have the same directories actually present: [root@qmail ~]# ls -l /var/qmail/supervise total 20 drwx-----T 4 qmaill qmail 4096 Jun 30 10:00 clamd drwx-----T 4 qmaill qmail 4096 Mar 4 10:15 send drwx-----T 4 qmaill qmail 4096 Apr 11 12:13 smtp drwx-----T 4 qmaill qmail 4096 Jun 23 10:35 spamd drwx-----T 4 qmaill qmail 4096 Apr 11 15:39 submission Still getting the same error: [root@qmail ~]# qmailctl start Starting qmail-toaster: svscan.

I don't see anything here that should be causing the problem. I've never paid very close attention to qmailctl stat results other than up or not, but it looks to me like maybe clamd and spamd are repeatedly stopping and restarting? They never seem to go above a few (less than 10) seconds.

Hopefully, it doesn't melt down before I find a fix. > Note for posterity, clamav and spamd are very soon to be changed to use > syslogd and initd instead of supervise and multilog.

The less custom stuff that has to be added to a system for QMT, the better, as far as I'm concerned. -- Best regards, Diana Calder mailto:dcal...@essexcountylibrary.ca Automation Technician (519) 776-5241 x.131 Essex County Library Essex, ON --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: qmailtoaster-list-unsubscr...@qmailtoaster.com For additional commands, e-mail: qmailtoaster-list-h...@qmailtoaster.com
