Folks, I have an issue where MailScanner is accepting mail, but then the mail just sits in /var/spool/mqueue.in I am running sendmail 8.13.8, and MailScanner V 4.81.4. I changed the lock type in /etc/MailScanner/MailScanner.conf to; flock from blank, restarted MailScanner but this change made no differance. I am at a loss. Any help is appreciated. -Rap
Falko, No there are not but here is a sample of what is in the log. Code: [root@spam spool]# service MailScanner restart && tail -f /var/log/maillog Shutting down MailScanner daemons: MailScanner: [FAILED] incoming sendmail: [ OK ] outgoing sendmail: [ OK ] Waiting for MailScanner to die gracefully dead.

I also looked at the messages and didn't see any errors logged in them. I would also be happy to change any config settings/logging options to assist. I am happy to look for information so ask away. BTW, the OS is CentOS. -Rap
New news, In my MailScanner.conf file I set Debug=yes and SpamAssassin Debug=yes. Then I: Code: [root@spam mqueue.in]# service MailScanner stop Shutting down MailScanner daemons: MailScanner: [FAILED] incoming sendmail: [ OK ] outgoing sendmail: [ OK ] [root@spam mqueue.in]# check_MailScanner Starting MailScanner... Failed. Now I need to figure out why it would fail. When I run the standard command I get this: Code: [root@spam mqueue.in]# service MailScanner start && tail -f /var/log/maillog Starting MailScanner daemons: incoming sendmail: [ OK ] outgoing sendmail: [ OK ] MailScanner: [ OK ] Jan 31 23:14:00 spam update.virus.scanners: Running autoupdate for generic Jan 31 23:14:01 spam sendmail[31958]: p11416rC031958: from=root, size=405, class=0, nrcpts=1, msgid=<[email protected]>, relay=root@localhost Jan 31 23:14:01 spam sendmail[32582]: p114E17d032582: from=<[email protected]>, size=684, class=0, nrcpts=1, msgid=<[email protected]>, proto=ESMTP, daemon=MTA, relay=localhost.localdomain [127.0.0.1] Jan 31 23:14:01 spam sendmail[32582]: p114E17d032582: to=<[email protected]>, delay=00:00:00, mailer=smtp, pri=30684, stat=queued Jan 31 23:14:01 spam sendmail[31958]: p11416rC031958: to=root, ctladdr=root (0/0), delay=00:12:55, xdelay=00:00:00, mailer=relay, pri=30405, relay=[127.0.0.1] [127.0.0.1], dsn=2.0.0, stat=Sent (p114E17d032582 Message accepted for delivery) Jan 31 23:33:58 spam sendmail[427]: alias database /etc/aliases rebuilt by root Jan 31 23:33:58 spam sendmail[427]: /etc/aliases: 76 aliases, longest 10 bytes, 765 bytes total Jan 31 23:33:58 spam sendmail[435]: starting daemon (8.13.8): SMTP Jan 31 23:33:58 spam sm-msp-queue[439]: starting daemon (8.13.8): queueing@00:15:00 Jan 31 23:33:58 spam sendmail[443]: starting daemon (8.13.8): queueing@00:15:00 Why do I not believe that MailScanner is actually starting, because it never processes any mail from the mqueue.in folder. -Rap

I can say it did nothing to help MaiScanner start. When running check_MailScanner I still get: Starting MailScanner... Failed. -Rap

Found the solution to the issue I was having. It is found in this Bugzilla report for Fedora: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=434574 Look for the post by: Code: Dan Stahlke 2008-02-23 17:04:03 EST This same bug has been reported in CentOS 3: [url]http://bugs.centos.org/view.php?id=2434[/url] Related discussion: [url]http://www.perlmonks.org/?node_id=460411[/url] The fix: perl -MCPAN -e shell force install Scalar::Util Once I did that MailScanner starts and processes mail. -Rap
