Symbolic links, qmail and upgrade

tkalfaoglu

Silver Pleskian
basically my qmail died after the upgrade.
It first ran, then complained, and stopped delivery until I fixed the problems.

I had moved /var/qmail/queueu directory to another disk to share the I/O, and put a symbolic link going from "queue" to /mnt/something/queue but after my upgrade from 7.5.4 to 8.0.0 and to 8.1, qmail's permissions seemed to have changed, (I also had qscanq wrapper), and it would not deliver. I could not fix things, so I ended up moving the queue directory back to the original disk, losing much needed hair during the process.

No matter how I tried, the symbolic link trick would no longer work. any ideas?
