Topic: Mail Handling Stats

[Luiz]

It would be nice if E-Smith had a tool that could tell you how many mails it handles in a day or week or.......

[Peter Samuel]

I have a couple of RPMS to do just that

Have a look at ftp://ftp.e-smith.org/pub/e-smith/contrib/peters/RPMS and grab the following RPMS:

   i386/qmailanalog-0.70-2.i386.rpm
   noarch/e-smith-qmailanalog-1.1-3.noarch.rpm

After installing them, you'll need to manually fix the permissions on the web panel. Run the following command as root:

   chmod o+rx /etc/e-smith/web/functions/qmailanalog

(You need to do this, otherwise you won't be able to run the panel. This is because these RPMS were based on a future release of the e-smith server and gateway).

I installed your rpms and after following your installtion instructions I went to use it and got this message:

Software error:
[Sun Nov 26 13:40:57 2000] db.pm: Can't locate esmith/db.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /usr/lib/perl5/5.00503/i386-linux /usr/lib/perl5/5.00503 /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.005/i386-linux /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.005) at /etc/e-smith/web/panels/manager/cgi-bin/qmailanalog line 40. BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at /etc/e-smith/web/panels/manager/cgi-bin/qmailanalog line 40.

What could this be?

[Luiz]

Thanks for that. BUT there is no file /etc/e-smith/web/functions/qmailanalog

Have I missed something? I installed both the files as advised. But I cant seem to find the file that you are refering to.

Thanks for your help.

[Luiz]

I get the same. Have you figured it out yet? Cause I'm still scratching.

[Peter Samuel]

Sorry about that - comes from trying to use new features on an previous release.

I now have a working e-smith-qmailanalog RPM for e-smith-4.0.1 (that will encourage you to upgrade

If you managed to install the broken e-smith-qmailanalog, remove it:

rpm -e e-smith-qmailanalog

Then get the working version from:

ftp://ftp.e-smith.org/pub/e-smith/contrib/peters/RPMS/noarch/e-smith-qmailanalog-1.0-5.noarch.rpm

This one has been tested on e-smith 4.0.1

It will NOT work with e-smith 4.0.

[Peter Samuel]

As Charlie just pointed out, you can avoid the rpm removal step with a simple rpm upgrade as follows:

rpm -Uvh --force \
ftp://ftp.e-smith.org/pub/e-smith/contrib/peters/RPMS/noarch/e-smith-qmailanalog-1.0-5.noarch.rpm

Well, after upgrading to 4.0.1, I get the following error message:

[root@e-smith files]# rpm -Uvh e-smith-qmailanalog-1.0-5.noarch.rpm
error: failed dependencies:
        e-smith-base >= 4.0.12-56 is needed by e-smith-qmailanalog-1.0-5

Do I really have to install e-smith-base >= 4.0.12-56 if I want to use qmailanalog ?

(There are another problems with upgrading to e-smith-base >= 4.0.12-56 on a machine running webstats-addon-0.1-3 as well, so I'd rather not mess up the system:)

[root@e-smith files]# rpm -Uvh e-smith-base-4.0.12-56.noarch.rpm
file /etc/e-smith/templates/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf/05NoHostLookups from install of e-smith-base-4.0.12-56 conflicts with file from package webstats-addon-0.1-3

If you don't have e-smith-base-4.0.12056 installed then you haven't upgraded to e-smith 4.0.1.

Yes, it wouldn't have that dependency listed otherwise.

Following your advice in another forum, rpm -Uhv --force e-smith-base-4.0.12-56.noarch.rpm, took care of the situation.

Thanks for a very quick response!
