qmail issues after installing qmail scanner

JericonVLX · Unread post by **JericonVLX** » Thu Mar 29, 2007 4:43 am

I am running qmail on CentOS 4.4. Before installing qmail-scanner I was able to send mail just fine. Since installing the ART qmail-scanner I have been receiving the following error when sending mail. I have removed the installation to make sure that mail functionality still works.

[root@ip-ipaddress ~]# date | mail bill@domain.com
[root@ip-ipaddress ~]# Can't do setuid (cannot exec sperl)
qmail-inject: fatal: qq temporary problem (#4.3.0)

I have done some research on this issue online, but none of the fixes that I have found have resolved this issue.

I haven't had this issue before, but since the update to the qmail-scanner package on March 27th I have had this issue.

what version of qmail-scanner is this, and what distro are you on?

The package that I am installing is qmail-scanner.noarch 1:2.01-12.rhel4.art and I am on CentOS 4.4.

Try : chmod 4755 /var/qmail/bin/qmail-scanner-queue.pl

Thanks,

You shouldnt have to do that, if you do then somethings gone really really wrong. Did you install qmail-scanner with yum?

Hi,

I had the same exact problem yesterday.

CentOS 4.4 and same qmail-scanner and installed by yum.

After looking at my logs all of the clamscan was corrupted so again I removed clamav and clamd and installed the 0.90.1-1 which in just the recent past made my loads skyrocket.

My loads are still a little high with this one but definitely not as high as before.

I see there is another update for clamav and qmail-scanner.

Are there any issues with it so far?

======================

Ok just tried to update and it couldn't because of this:

Package clamav-0.90.1-3.el4.art.i386.rpm is not signed

Just that upgrading isnt clean yet. I cant comment on the load problems reported, as I havent been able to duplicate it. If its something in clamav itself, it's not anything I'll be able to address.

Ok thanks!

Will the number on it change after it is clean?

Yes I did install it with Yum from the atomic repo. I also tried that chmod command, however thepermissions on /var/qmail/bin/qmail-scanner-queue.pl already matched that.

Yeah dont do that, chmodding and all that will only make things worse, and harder to debug. You should never have to do anything special like that with an rpm.

I just reprovisioned the server and successfully reproduced this. I simply did a yum update using centosplus and then added the ART repo and installed SpamAssassin and qmail scanner.

oh, silly question, using which archive? 3es or the atomicorp box?

JericonVLX · Unread post by **JericonVLX** » Sun Apr 01, 2007 3:59 pm

The archives listed in my atomic.repo are at

http://3es.atomicrocketturtle.com/

I used the shell script listed in the downloads section to install the repo files.

Huh, I didnt put clamav 0.90.1 into that archive. You sure that one is from me?

It's not clamav... it's qmail-scanner
