Hi,

this morning I tried to move my queue to another directory, using the
following procedure:

1) stop everything of qmail
2) mv /var/qmail/queue /tmp/queue
3) queue-fix /tmp/queue
4) ln -s /tmp/queue /var/qmail/queue
5) start qmail

After this, I saw the following error a hundred times in my qmail log file:

929610000.245483 alert: cannot start: hath the daemon spawn no fire?

Does anybody know what I did wrong? I followed the hints for moving the
queue  like told in the README file provided with queue-fix.
Is it possible that qmail doesn't like a symbolic link? Should I recompile
qmail with the new location of the queue?

Franky
