Instalation error:given non-anchored path:eliveryMode=queueonly

[Alén Pérez Casas]

Thanks Julian,

I try uninstalling, dowloading again and reinstalling MailScanner 4.10-1

The install error messagee are
- rpmdb: item 0 on page 24 out of order or nonsecical
- error: db3 (-30985) from db -> Verify: DB_VERYFY_BAD: Database
verification failed.
- rpmdb: db3 error (-30985) from db -> Verify: DB_VERYFY_BAD: Database
verification failed.
- - error: db3 (-30985) from db -> Verify: DB_VERYFY_BAD: Database
verification failed.

Then, when I try to star Mailscaner, the old message....
- Starting Mailscanner daemons:
- incoming sendmail:write log:fopen as user:given non-anchored
path:eliveryMode=queueonly
- sendmail:[1470] fopen as user:given non-anchored
path:eliveryMode=queueonly
- sendmail:[1470] Warning:Cannot open debug file
eliveryMode:queueonly:Permission denied

Finally I uninstall MailScanner, because the sistem hang on reboot.....

Do you belive if i try to install an older version from the .tar it will be
best for me? Probably I´m going to try the installins secuence sugested in
the spanish instalation giude http://webmaster.bankhacker.com/mailscanner/
using the 3.12 version. Do you belive it will work?

Sorry the annoyances, and thank you for give a hand to a poor
underdevelopment sociologist from south america!!  ; )

Alén

It looks like you have corrupted your /etc/rc.d/init.d/MailScanner file as
it appears to be saying
         eliveryMode
and not
        DeliveryMode
