I just updated from 3.0.0.8 to 3.0.0.9 and all my email is stuck in the inbound queue.

Posted: **21 Mar 2016 17:18**

Rebooted after updating?

multiple times

Ok.

1) What are you observing in /var/log/messages and /var/log/maillog?
2) Is mailscanner running? (service MailScanner status)
3) Is clam running? (service clamd status)

I'm not sure what happened but I was able to get it working again. I did go through all the options in the configuration program and set them again and rebooted a few times but I don't know what fixed it. In case it helps anyone else here are snippets from the logs from when it wasn't working.

In /var/log/messages it just kept repeating
Mar 21 13:07:11 efa MailScanner: Process did not exit cleanly, returned 13 with signal 0
Mar 21 13:07:16 efa MailScanner: Process did not exit cleanly, returned 13 with signal 0

here is a snippet from /var/log/maillog

Code: Select all

Here is the /var/spool directory:

drwxrwx--- 2 smmsp smmsp 4096 Feb 26 12:01 clientmqueue

I tried to chmod 777 mqueue but didnt make a difference, so I set it back.

/var/spool/mqueue and everything in it should be owner postfix and group postfix, which 755 for the directory

Code: Select all

sudo chown -R postfix:postfix /var/spool/mqueue
sudo chmod 755 /var/spool/mqueue

For some reason sendmail was running so I stopped that and started postfix then it started processing mail,
changed owner of mqueue as you suggested. still getting emails from root:
