SERIOUS ERROR -- but I don't know how to fix it?

[burhankhalid]

The output of ommon on my machine always prints a similar message, but I don't know what is the problem because the server is running fine and there have been no complaints from the users. Email is being sent and recieved, etc.

The error is:

Code: Select all

SERIOUS ERROR           Background Sea(Background Sea) Sat Apr 29 13:42:31 2006

Hi,

It is possible that a data file in the message store is missing. One way to check is to run omscan (note this may take a while depending the size and it will use up resource to do the scan). Something like (see man page for omscan for details):

omscan -A -a

If this does report the missing file, it may be possible to clear the error by running omscan again in fix mode.

Regards,
Danny
