Hi,

I’ve installed cluebringer-v2.0.14 and MySql 5.1 on a linux box for testing 
before I move it onto my production servers.  I connected it into postfix and 
brought both policyd and postfix up.  When I attempted to send an email through 
my test server, I got the following error:

[TRACKING] ERROR: Failed to select session tracking info: 
awitpt::db::dblayer::DBSelect(126): Error executing select:
Unknown column 'UnixTimestamp' in 'field list’

This, of course, is a problem in the distro since the software is trying to 
access the session_tracking table and it expects the column UnixTimeStamp and 
it does not exists in the database.  I went back to the database folder in the 
distro download, and none of the *.tsql files that are used to built the 
database on MySQL contained that column.  So, I went int and manually changed 
the column name from Timestamp to UnixTimestamp, and that fixed the problem.  
The core.tsql file needs to be corrected in the download.

So now I don’t get any error and since I was manually testing, I set up a 
default outbound policy with a limit of 5 messages per day before and expected 
rejections after I exceeded that number.  But no, it did not happen.  I looked 
in the session_tracking table and there were no entries.

Any ideas about what’s going on on where I need to look to find the problem 
would be most appreciated.

Thanks,



Can you show me what you ran to create the schema file?


Per the INSTALL instructions in the distribution root, I went into the database 
directory (right below root) and ran the following:

for i in  core.tsql access_control.tsql quotas.tsql amavis.tsql checkhelo.tsql 
checkspf.tsql greylisting.tsql
do
       ./convert-tsql mysql $i
done > policyd.mysql

Then, in accordance with the instructions in the INSTALL document, I ran the 
following to upload the schema:

 mysql -u root -p policyd < policyd.mysql

And now that I’m thinking about it, there were no instructions to say that I 
needed to manually create the database, but since the above command failed 
because the database policyd didn’t exist, so I manually created it and then 
the upload ran without any errors.

Try    ./convert-tsql mysql51 $i   :)

That result in the error: ERROR: Invalid database type ‘mysql51'

Typing in just ./convert-tsql with parameters lists the valid database types:

Valid database types:
      mysql55 - For MySQL v5.5
      mysql4  - For MySQL v4
      mysql   - For MySQL v5
      pgsql   - For PostgreSQL
      sqlite  - For SQLite v3


But since I have the database schema installed on MySQL, my big concern in why 
the accounting limits are not working.  I’m presuming that the session-tracking 
table is the beast that keeps count of the number of messages send (the 
Accounting module) and it’s never being written to.  If that’s not where the 
dat is stored to limit the number of messages per day, please tell me where it 
is.  The limits on the number outgoing messages per her per day is the one 
thing I need policyd to do for me.
