MailWatch issues?

[Steve Freegard]

Hi Matt,

I *think* 4.12 should work - however I suspect that you haven't got the
php-mysql module installed.  You can check by doing:

rpm -qa | grep php

On my system I get:

php-mysql-4.2.2-17
php-4.2.2-17
...

You can get the RPM's for php-mysql from the RedHat 7.3 installation media.

Kind regards,
Steve.

I am your worst nightmare :).

Thanks Steve, I got past that point now...now at the final step, but
getting "Fatal error: Call to undefined function: " for every page from
functions.php.  mostly  mysql_pconnect function.  I am using PHP 4.12,
verified that it is working.  Is version 4.12 known to work?

thx
Matt

Matt,

Sorry but you'll have to undo your DBD-MySQL install as 2.9002 doesn't
seem
to work properly with MailWatch (you get the 'MySQL server has gone
away'
error) - you'll need to download and install 2.1028 from
http://search.cpan.org/CPAN/authors/id/J/JW/JWIED/DBD-mysql-2.1028.tar.g
z
and it'll start working correctly.

Regards,
Steve.

DBI 138 and dbd-mysql-2.9002 on Redhat Linux 7.3 (full updated).

Anyways, my dbd-mysql was halfa$$ installed, so I fixed that; now I get
the
following:

Database ping failure attempting to re-connect
Cannot insert row: MySQL server has gone away

But at least thats a step forward :)

thx
Matt

Hi Matt,

It must be hanging at the DBI->connect line - does it eventually
time-out??

What are your versions of DBI and DBD-MySQL and which OS are you running
this on, also is the database running on the local machine and can you
verify connections to MySQL by doing a 'mysql -h <host> -u <user> -p
<pass>'
from the command-line using the values you entered into MailWatch.pm.

Also it may be worth enabling DBI tracing and seeing if anything appears
in
the trace file.

Kind regards,
Steve.

I just found that issue (and did it) right before I received this email.
Now
I DO get the 'intialising database connection' line, but I never get a
"Finished initialising database connection" message.  And same end
result;
email stops flowing.

thanks Steve

Hi Matt,

You need to make sure that the 'require MailScanner/MailWatch.pm' line
is
below the line that starts '$VERSION = substr...' in CustomConfig.pm and
it
should start working.

This will be in the docs for the next release.

Kind regards,
Steve.

Not sure where else to post this as the MailWatch forum on sourceforge
doesn't have much action. Anyone have issues installing MailWatch for
Mailscanner; where MailScanner does not initialize the database upon
startup?  ie

Oct 15 08:56:01 sydney MailScanner[6673]: MailScanner E-Mail Virus
Scanner
version 4.24-5 starting...
Oct 15 08:56:02 sydney MailScanner[6673]: Config: calling custom init
function MailWatchLogging

And thats it, there is nothing after that in terms of any error
messages.
Mail does *not* flow at all after this until until I take MailWatch out
of
the picture. I checked my authentication to MySQL, the db all looks
fine.
Ideas? Or should I post this elsewhere?

thx
Matt
