hi all, I am installing postfix by taking the steps in the howtos "Postfix Spam Filter using Ubuntu Dapper, MailScanner, SpamAssassin, Razor, Pyzor, DCC and ClamAV" but at the end I have an error when I installed MRTG mail scanner; root@smtp-gw:/# env LANG=C /usr/bin/mrtg /etc/mailscanner-mrtg.cfg ERROR: Creating templock /var/lock/mrtg/_etc_mailscanner-mrtg.cfg_l_3802: No such file or directory at /usr/bin/mrtg line 1645. do you have any idea How can I fix it? thx in advance..
Hi , thank you for relply, I created directory /var/lock.mrtg but this time it gives the error; root@smtp-gw:/# env LANG=C /usr/bin/mrtg /etc/mailscanner-mrtg.cfg ERROR: I guess another mrtg is running. A lockfile (/var/lock/mrtg/_etc_mailscanner-mrtg.cfg_l) aged 11 seconds is hanging around. If you are sure that no other mrtg is running you can remove the lockfile also in the logs I get; >>smtp-gw MailScanner-MRTG[5403]: ERROR: iptraffic counters not fully initialised - no iptraffic data on this run. This is normal on the first run, or when the previous run was more than 5 minutes ago (e.g. when rebooting). If these errors persist over multiple runs please check that snmpd is running on your system. If you don't want to run snmp please ensure that you have disabled it in mailscanner-mrtg.conf. For more hints about snmp see README.SNMP in the docs directory what should I do ?
It seems another mrtg process is already running. I'd do a reboot and see if the problem comes up again.
