sendmail fatal errors

[crankshaft]

Hi;

All of a sudden, Monday morning and send mail has decided not to play ball:

Code: Select all

Running /var/spool/mqueue/q099xX7O003029 (sequence 2 of 36)
<wxy@xyz.com.sg>... Connecting to alpha via scalix_mime...

The error logs don't seem to provide anything more meaningful, I suspect a permission problem somewhere, is there a command which will check and reset all scalix permissions and owners ??

[crankshaft]

I ran omcheck -i -d which does report problems, but am I able to force it to fix the errors or is there another command to repair ownership / permissions ??

[mikethebike]

omcheck -d -s > /tmp/crankshaft.sh

that should output a file, which you can run as a shell script to fix permissions.
