That certainly doesn't appear consistant.
A frew things:
a> Q-S is running /usr/bin/sweep, whereas you manually ran "sweep" - is it the same executable?
Yep.
b> those two checks aren't the same: Q-S runs "sweep... /dir/name", and you ran it manually via "cd /dir/name ; sweep *". See if that makes a difference.
Tried it, no difference.
c> softlimits,softlimits,softlimits. Ensure you are not allowing sweep to run out of memory. e.g. test it as:
softlimit -a ?????? /command/setuidgid qscand sweep ....
where the softlimit setting is whatever you set in your smtp startup script. You may find that your manual run fails to find it then...
Well, that was it. Looks like 11 Mb wasn't enough RAM after all. It runs with 20 Mb.
Also remind people to remember to restart qmail when they have changed the softlimit in /service/qmail-smtpd/run :) That one had me doing loops for a few minutes.
Thanks for the help!
