Qmail error while installing and configuraing

Qmail error while installing and configuraing

After installing Qmail, i tried to start qmail i got this error

[root@localhost qmail-smtpd]# qmailctl start
Starting qmail...

qmail-send supervise not running
qmail-smtpd supervise not running
qmail-pop3d supervise not running

I checked all the possible issues,

[root@localhost qmail-smtpd]# ls -l /service
total 0
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 32 2010-08-16 21:38 qmail-pop3d -> /var/qmail/supervise/qmail-pop3d
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 31 2010-08-16 21:38 qmail-send -> /var/qmail/supervise/qmail-send
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 32 2010-08-16 21:38 qmail-smtpd -> /var/qmail/supervise/qmail-smtpd

[root@localhost qmail-smtpd]# ps ax |grep supervise
10190 pts/1 T 0:00 supervise log
10332 pts/1 S+ 0:00 grep supervise

etc...........

Solution

'svscanboot' was not running

[root@localhost qmail-smtpd]# svscanboot &
[2] 10336
[root@localhost qmail-smtpd]# qmailctl start
Starting qmail...

Starting qmail-send
Starting qmail-smtpd
Starting qmail-pop3d

It works !!!! Seems like we have to reboot the server after installing daemontools.
