Hello Qmailers,
I'm using serialmail-75 over a ppp link for outgoing mail on a linux
box. From the ip-up scripts it runs perfectly. However, if the conection
stays up, I call serialmail from a crontab on the hour. The crontab
calls a wrapper which checks if serialmail is running. If not, it is
invoked
as follows:
/usr/local/bin/maildirsmtp ~alias/pppdir alias-ppp- mail.spark.com.ar
gateway 2>&1 | /var/qmail/bin/splogger serialmail
When serialmail is called from the crontab, it does not run and always
get the following in syslog:
Jul 2 10:00:01 gateway serialmail: 930920402.294743 maildirserial:
fatal: unable to get scanner status: no child processes
Jul 2 10:00:02 gateway serialmail: 930924001.911220 maildirserial:
fatal: unable to run tcpclient: file does not
exist
I have the path to tcpclient set as a system wide path, and call
serialmail from the crontab as root (fetchmail works under the same
circumstances).
Anyone?
Cheers - eric
