Title: QMAIL too verbose
Post by: Jáder Marasca on October 02, 2002, 03:41:56 PM

My Qmail is showing log messages on screen of server.
I´m sure I do something some days ago about this: kill -sigusr  or something like that ! So it´s my fault. But neither I remember WHAT I DO, neither I can find anywhere what info I was researching when I found this.
I´m running SME 5.12.

Could someone help me telling what I did? :-O
and BETTER yet, how to UNDO IT?

Thanks!

You would probably find more people willing to help if you were to
tell us what the messages *say*.

Rich.

Isn´t error messages, I´m seeing the qmail processing messages on my server´s screen! I think it´s just a case of qmail log setup to verbose !

My qmail is working as usual!

Except qmail doesn't log to the screen, it logs to files.

So I think it´s ISOQLOG ( a mail log analyser that generate web pages) issue.
I´ll try to contact they! Or remove package untill solve this!

BUT let me try again: There is any way to do qmail to show logs on screen?

Thanks!

I have seen this problem before if the log daemon for qmail fails.  It then logs everything to the screen instead of /var/log/qmail/current like it should.

Great, now appears  a reason to this behaviour...

How I can discover if I have a qmail log daemon and how I can track down is malfunctioning...
