http://bugs.exim.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1045 Summary: ALT_CONFIG_PREFIX breaks exicyclog, exinext and exiwhat Product: Exim Version: 4.72 Platform: Other OS/Version: Linux Status: NEW Severity: bug Priority: medium Component: General execution AssignedTo: [email protected] ReportedBy: [email protected] CC: [email protected] exicyclog, exinext and exiwhat do this: #1 Search a (build-time) hardcoded list of configuration files for the currently used one. #2 Find the exim binary by grep for exim_path in the newly found configuration file or falling back to the compile time default. #3 Read some configuration directives (spool_directory) by running exim -bP directive At #3 -C is used to point exim at the file found in #1. This breaks if exim was built with ALT_CONFIG_PREFIX and if the configuration file is not in ALT_CONFIG_PREFIX. (A common szenario if CONFIGURE_FILE specifies a a list of files in different directories.) I *think* the obvious and straightforward workaround would be to simply drop the -C argument, the logic used in #1 is supposed to be identical to the one the exim binary is using. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.exim.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email -- ## List details at http://lists.exim.org/mailman/listinfo/exim-dev Exim details at http://www.exim.org/ ##
