Hi,
I have installed Qmail on my company 2 or 3 weeks ago. I installed
qmail with Nick Leverton's patch for qmail-send for remote delivery
control and with Christopher K. Davis's patch to accept oversize DNS
packets. Everything was going just fine.
Today I decided to create a few scripts to start and stop qmail remote
delivery when my dial-up connection came up and down. Before that I was
halting the computer every night.
AFAIK I have just created a few extra scripts that would be called by
cron. Obviously I must have done something else...
My problem is that qmail - as called by the rc script - doesn't runs
anymore.
I tried 'strace /var/qmail/rc' and just at the end of it I saw
qmail-start trying to call qmail-send and getting a 'Permission denied'
error. I runned ./instcheck and it found no problems. Can I have some
permission problems?
I am sending the whole strace outputs for a 'strace -orc.trace
/var/qmail/rc' and for a 'strace -oqmail-send.trace qmail-send'. I am
sending also my dir list of /var/qmail and of /var/qmail/bin. I am
sending also the rc script I used.
My machine is a Pentium 200mHz with 64MB of RAM and 1.1GB harddisk. I
am running RedHat Linux 6.0.
Sorry for the huge attachments but I am in such a hurry to make qmail
work again that I tried to send all necessary info - and probably lots
of unnecessary also. :(
A confused to-be network administrator, hungry and helpless,
Rodrigo Severo
P.S.: One last piece of info, when I runned 'strace -orc.trace
/var/qmail/rc' I got the following error message which I don't
undestand: 'ptrace: umoven: Input/output error'.
