[ http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JAMES-522?page=comments#action_12414751 ]
Vincenzo Gianferrari Pini commented on JAMES-522: ------------------------------------------------- I would keep things as now, because this was the intended behaviour. If <maxPings>n</maxPings>, with n > 0, the desired behaviour is to delay the startup of James until clamd is up and running, *without allowing any message to flow without an anti-virus check*. Such situation could arise with a server startup, where clamd could take longer than james to start. If after some time clamd has not yet started, James must fail and the administrator shall intervene to fix clamd. If I don't want such "safe" behaviour, I can set <maxPings>0</maxPings> as you did. BTW, I'm changing config.xml to have a commented invocation of ClamAVScan (plus some other enhancements). > Having the ClamAVScan mailet configured, but clamd unavailable when JAMES > starts, keeps JAMES from starting. > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: JAMES-522 > URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JAMES-522 > Project: James > Type: Bug > Components: Matchers/Mailets (bundled) > Reporter: Noel J. Bergman > Assignee: Norman Maurer > Priority: Trivial > > If JAMES attempts to start, ClamAVScan is configured, and clamd is not > running, ClamAVScan.init() will throw an exception, terminating JAMES > entirely. This can be seen in ${james}/logs/phoenix.log where the maxPings > error will appear, and the spoolmanager component will be shown as failing. > I'm marking this as minor since there is a work around, biut actually, I > consider it a more major error. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
