Loads of stale zero byte tmp files?

[Richard Mealing]

I would check in your mailq.in folder also as you might find tnef files there too.

I raised this a couple of weeks ago, but no-one got back to me, so I rolled all my machines back to 4.83.5.

Subject: Loads of stale zero byte tmp files?

Hi list

I have an issue with MailScanner-4.84.5-2 / SpamAss on CentOS 6.2. The setup seems to be working ok but i have an issue on 2 boxes that temp files do not get deleted.  In /tmp stuff like this is piling up quickly:
-rw-------. 1 root    root         94 May 20 22:55 K2M0qbNwv6
-rw-------. 1 root    root          0 May 21 05:08 tmp.1t3DQ6ZFaU
-rw-------. 1 root    root          0 May 21 06:14 tmp.9ZRV7VB41Y
-rw-------. 1 root    root          0 May 21 04:17 tmp.DmqX7lvDJS
-rw-------. 1 root    root          0 May 21 04:17 tmp.HwtJIyJImI
-rw-------. 1 root    root          0 May 21 06:14 tmp.MdrrIsMqGa
-rw-------. 1 root    root          0 May 21 05:08 tmp.ToMnIIFMf1

and in /var/spool/MailScanner/incoming/SpamAssassin-Temp :
-rw-------. 1 root root 0 May 21 06:31 MailScanner.UfuR0E -rw-------. 1 root root 0 May 21 05:58 MailScanner.vpJ3tf -rw-------. 1 root root 0 May 21 03:34 MailScanner.zmZPln -rw-------. 1 root root 0 May 21 03:34 MailScanner.zTSxkI -rw-------. 1 root root 0 May 21 05:42 tmp.1t1IUXAFLV -rw-------. 1 root root 0 May 21 05:42 tmp.296NAlpKdS -rw-------. 1 root root 0 May 21 03:35 tmp.3cDHk7cwub -rw-------. 1 root root 0 May 21 03:20 tmp.3eimiawowx


Any clues why the temp files are not getting deleted?

Thx!
