SRS broken after system upgrade
|
|
We upgraded our installation of Redhat Linux from EL3 to EL4, and everything worked after the reboot except SRS. Looks like there may be a problem between the latest SRS and EL4. I'm considering dropping SRS, since hardly anyone is using it, but I would like to stay as much compliant with SPF as possible.
Here is what I have so far:
Immediately after the upgrade, Sendmail was down, so I attempted to start it manually.
>[root[at]open-mail milter]# /etc/init.d/sendmail restart
>Shutting down sendmail: [ OK ]
>Shutting down sm-client: [FAILED]
>Starting sendmail: 554 5.0.0 /etc/mail/sendmail.cf: line 179: readcf: map make_srs: class socket not available
>554 5.0.0 /etc/mail/sendmail.cf: line 181: readcf: map reverse_srs: class socket not available
> [FAILED]
>Starting sm-client: [ OK ]
Taking the SRS lines out of sendmail.cf fixed the problem, so it is not something else.
We actually don't have the latest SRS in our Linux distribution,
>[dave[at]open-mail ~]$ rpm --query sendmail
>sendmail-8.13.1-3.RHEL4.5
>[dave[at]open-mail ~]$ rpm --query pysrs
>pysrs-0.30.9-1.EL3
so I downloaded the latest pysrs and and installed it.
>-rw-r--r-- 1 dave admin 38508 Dec 31 13:53 pysrs-0.30.11-2.noarch.rpm
>... Installed above using Webmin ...
>[root[at]open-mail milter]# /etc/init.d/pysrs restart
>Shutting down pysrs: [ OK ]
>Starting pysrs: [ OK ]
>[root[at]open-mail milter]# rpm --query pysrs
>error: Macro % has illegal name (%define)
>pysrs-0.30.11-2
>[root[at]open-mail milter]# /etc/init.d/pysrs status
>pysrs (pid 29356) is running...
Restoring the SRS lines in sendmail.cf brings back the original errors. Sendmail won't start.
Any suggestions? Help will be greatly appreciated.
