Hi,
I'm running a Cobalt RAQ4 and have just upgraded MailScarrer to version
4.30-3. The install of the rpm package seemed to go fine, but when I try
to restart Mailscanner using the command /etc/rc.d/init.d/MailScanner stop
it simply wont let me.
Having looked at my maillog I get the following error messages repeating
every so often:
May 2 00:03:13 www MailScanner[14247]: Could not read
file /var/run/MailScanner.pid
May 2 00:03:13 www MailScanner[14247]: Error in line 118,
file "/var/run/MailScanner.pid" for pidfile does not exist (or can not be
read)
Having checked out if the MailScanner.pid file exists, it doesnt, I tried
running the install script again with no luck. Mailscanner is not scanning
any of my emails at the moment, but thankfully I am still receving my email
(and spam!).
Is it possible for anyone to email me MailScanner.pid file? What are the
permissions on the file and /var/run/ directory meant to be?
Thanks for your help,
Stephen Fletcher
