Maybe you were hit with a massive spam attack and that triggered
something that caused the qrunners to die, but there normally would also
be error log messages. Did you check for a rotated log?

If these are older shunt entries (before you reinstalled), possibly
there was a permissions issue at that time that prevented writing the
error log and maybe caused other issues. The one you posted had a
received time from last Thursday, 22 Sept.

The spam message entries in the shunt queue can just be deleted.
