[AMaViS-user] Problem with Amavisd-new forking children endlessly
Hello, I am using: Amavisd-new-2.3.2 (from tar.gz) Fedora Core 4 (selinux disabled) Net::Server 0.90 (I tried older versions also, no difference) I have run amavis before on fedora core 4, but I cant figure out what is different this time around. When starting up amavis using my init script or "amavisd debug" everything goes well until "Net::Server: Parent ready for children." and then it repeats... Net::Server: Starting "1" children I have maxchildren set to 3, but other values dont help. The message above just repeats forever. (sometimes the number is 2 or 3, instead of 1) Any help is appreciated. Mike Wesner --- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc. Do you grep through log files for problems? Stop!
