Hi,
I'm having a major problem with a new install of Qmail under FreeBSD 3.2.
Qmail was installed by a server management package and appears ok - except
all mail entering the qmail/queue/mess folders is being owned by root:
drwxr-x--- 2 qmailq qmail 512 Apr 8 22:11 .
drwxr-x--- 25 qmailq qmail 512 Dec 13 17:01 ..
-rw-r--r-- 1 root qmail 2749 Apr 7 19:27 634892
-rw-r--r-- 1 root qmail 17998 Apr 8 22:11 634915
The Qmail deamons are running with the correct UID (AFAIK from the faq):
ps -aux gives:
qmails 279 0.0 0.1 836 468 con- I Sat11AM 0:01.05 qmail-send
qmaill 291 0.0 0.1 780 476 con- I Sat11AM 0:00.86 splogger
qmail
root 292 0.0 0.1 780 384 con- I Sat11AM 0:00.32 qmail-lspawn
./Mail
qmailr 293 0.0 0.1 776 364 con- I Sat11AM 0:00.01 qmail-rspawn
qmailq 294 0.0 0.1 768 388 con- I Sat11AM 0:00.02 qmail-clean
and the mail is arriving ... it just can't be transferred to any user
popboxes:
Apr 9 18:13:47 ns1 qmail: 955300427.913207 delivery 1033: deferral:
Sorry,_message_has_wrong_owner._(#4.3.5)/
Apr 9 18:13:47 ns1 qmail: 955300427.913409 status: local 0/10 remote 0/20
.... as witnessed by /var/log/maillog.
If I chown the messages back to qmailq then the mail goes through .....
whats happening here? Is this fixable without a reinstall? I don't have
binaries as the qmail prog was bundled with a self installer.
Cheers,
Chris R.
