MailWatch Error: no rows retrieved from database

Hello Guys,

I have recently installed MailScanner SpamSnake from the howto provided in HowtoForge.

I believe I have followed the howto correctly but at the end I see no messages with MailWatch. The error is: "Error: No rows retrieved from database". I have been thinking this has to do with permissions and with meaningful help of Rocky I went through some steps again but with success.

I also think that MailScanner is not logging into MySQL... Well, I am not sure...

Details of my system are:
Ubuntu Server 9.04
MailScanner 4.75.11
MaiWatch 1.0.4
MySQL-Sever 5.1.30really5.0.75-0ubuntu10.2
Spamassassin 3.2.5-4
ClamAV 0.95.1+dfsg-1ubuntu1.2

Everything else seems to work fine....
Please help

I really cannot understand why I can't see any rows with MailWatch.
The only thing it reads are the logs...

With MailWatch I notice that all tables are empty except geoip_country and sa_rules. users and whitelist have 1 row erach (the mailwatch user and the 127.0.0.1 address to whitelist).
Why isn't the database been filled?
Can you help me to check whether mailscanner is logging MySQL????

Please help!!

 

You need to check the configuration of your Mailwatch logging module, its being called by mailscanner but for some reason it does not actually log to DB.

Verify the username, password and database settings.

 

Guys, please help me... I went through all the steps again.
I re-cheked the username, password and database settings but I sitill see no rows with MailWatch... This is driving me crazy!!

In MailWatch.pm there is the following code:
my($dbh);
my($sth);
my($hostname) = hostname;
my $loop = inet_aton("127.0.0.1");
my $server_port = 11553;
my $timeout = 3600;

I cannot see port 11553 open with nmap on localhost. Should this port be open on localhost?

Below is my mail.log - MailScanner is not logging into MySQL
Please, please help! I don't know what else I should do have this working.

This is what you need to be checking

Code:

my($db_name) = 'mailscanner';
my($db_host) = 'localhost';
my($db_user) = 'mailwatch';
my($db_pass) = 'password';

 

topdog,
I really appreciate your reply.

As I mentioned before I've re-checked the username, password and database settings but I sitill see no rows with MailWatch...

How can I test or debug mailscanner logging into MySQL?
Are there any other tests that I should perform as regarding this issue?
Please help.

 

Yes you can, edit the MailWatch.pm file and uncomment DBI->trace as indicated below. Then restart MailScanner and look at the log file /root/dbitrace.log

Code:

# Trace settings - uncomment this to debug
DBI->trace(2,'/root/dbitrace.log');

 

topdog,

I can't get any logging in that file....

 

Can you post you MailWatch.pm file.

Please ignore the 9th line "Here it is:"..... it's my mistake...

 

That looks fine i cannot think of anything else.

 

Then I am completely lost...

You know, I don't even get any error.. this is very strange.. sometimes I think that that file is not being used...

 

What is the full path to the Mailwatch.pm file ?

 

the path is:
/opt/MailScanner/etc/CustomFunctions/MailWatch.pm

 

Is that the correct path because i know under Centos its at /usr/lib/MailScanner/MailScanner/CustomFunctions/Mailwatch.pm

 

Yes indeed, it is the correct path on Ubuntu...

 

Dear all,

It is all working fine now.

topgog, you were definitely right with the CustomConfig dir path.
I did as the howto states... but it is wrong!!!!! The real path is /opt/MailScanner/lib/MailScanner/CustomFunctions/ this is what I do have in MailWatch.pm I have to admit I did not pay attention to this before and only today I have corrected this.

Thank you Rock and topdog for all you patience with me.
