Urgent! not getting emails

[modom]

Hi,

I installed clamav from Art's and all went well. Then, when I installed qmail-scanner I get this message and I can send emails now but cannot receive any and there is no mail in the webmail when testing.

[root@godslove etc]# yum install qmail-scanner

Did you run this after installing the qmail scanner?

/usr/bin/qmail-scanner-reconfigure

No but I will now.

 

[modom]

[root@godslove root]# /usr/bin/qmail-scanner-reconfigure

How do I remove the qmail scanner so the mail will work again?

 

[modom]

I found it...

yum remove qmail-scanner

It is working now. This is a first with yum.

 

[CBiLL]

Did you get the qmail scanner from Art?

And how did you install it? if you use Yum it's

yum remove qmail-scanner

or you install it as a package then it's

rpm -e (qmail-scanner package name)


I would use Art's qmail scanner using the yum install if you gotten your qmail scanner from a different source since Art's works in conjuction with Plesk's qmail ..

Hi,

I got both the clamav and the qmail-scanner from Art's.

When I uninstalled qmail-scanner the mail started working again.

Hello

Is the rhel3 distribution compatible with centos OS ?

 

[k.satirli]

I've got a similar problem..

I installed qmail-scanner / SA / clamav / clamav-devel

and ran the reconfigure script but all its doing is:

Configuring qmail-scanner:

That's all. Nothing happening except server load going up.

I thought the reconfigure script was automatically doing everything? whereever I looked, I couldnt find anything about how to handle this situation.

anyone got pointers? as in ... right now?

[EDIT]

I did as suggested in http://www.grafxsoftware.com/util/PLESK-HOWTO.txt

I also had a look at /var/spool/qmailscan/qmail-queue.log

and it seems that clamav is running and doing its job, but in the other SSH window, it's still saying

Configuring qmail-scanner:

and nothing's happening...
