Hi everyone,
i was wondering if someone has experienced this problem i've been having
for 2 weeks now.
I'm running Freebsd 7.0 and postfix-2.5.1.
The thing is that i've set up a filter written in C using postfix's
"pipe" feature. The filter works great most of the times.... but every
2-3 days.... mainly depending on the amount of load... FreeBSD hangs
completely(or almost completely) and leaves this message behind:
************
pipe[44634]: fatal: pipe_command: execvp
/usr/local/etc/postfix/quota_postfix: No such file or directory.
*************
This file is never touched, i mean, it's still there even when the
system says it can't find the file.
I've tried to change permissions of the file, just in case. Right now
the owner is root:wheel, but i've tried "postfix", also "filter", and so on.
in the master.cf, i've got this:
************
# quota_postfix
quota_postfix unix - n n - 20 pipe
flags=R user=filter argv=/usr/local/etc/postfix/quota_postfix
"localhost" "10028" "${sender}" "${recipient}" "${domain}"
************
has anyone experienced that? it's a very strange thing that only gets
fixed when you restart postfix. Sometimes i even have to reboot the machine.
i would be very pleased if someone can throw some light on this issue.
Thanks in advance!!!!
