sorry_message_has_wrong_owner

2000-01-18 Thread Jennifer Tippens

What caused a message to be deferred with the error:
Sorry,_message_has_wrong_owner?  I can't send anything using the
/var/qmail/bin/sendmail wrapper without getting this.  I did try all the
tests successfully in TEST.deliver and TEST.receive, but they all use
qmail-inject.
Thanks for any help you can give,

-Jennifer

Did it ever work or has it never worked?

Almost certainly the permissions in /var/qmail have not been set properly
or have been changed subsequent to make setup.

Have you moved the queue with cp, tar, cpio, etc? Have you restored it
from a backup tape? Did you install it according to the qmail install or
have you used some 3rd party install?

What happens if, as root in the qmail source directory, you go:
# make check

??

Regards.

Yes, because I had a linking mishap {sheepish grin}, I replaced a few files
in /var/qmail/bin with ones from another machine.  I did not realize it would
change anything. Thank you very much for your help.  I tried a few other
things, then I did:
#make setup check
and that did it. it works now!
Thanks so much,
