Qmail finding configuration problems

by on Sep.15, 2007, under Linux

Life with qmail

It sometimes helps to run a service manually in order to find configuration problems. For example, if your qmail-smtpd/log service isn’t running, do:

cd /service/qmail-smtpd/log
svc -d .
./run
if no errors, enter a line of text and press ENTER
if still no errors, enter CTRL-D (end of file)

At this point, you should be able to identify the problem and fix it. Once that’s done, return to the service’s directory, if necessary, and do:

svc -u .
