svc: warning: unable to control /service/qmail-smtpd: file does not exist


Hi!

I’m trying to install & configure qmailrocks on CentOS6. I’ve successfully completed vqadmin & qmailadmin but when I try to finalize it. I’ve found a problem with the command

[root@proxy service]# qmailctl stop
Stopping qmail...

qmail-smtpd
svc: warning: unable to control /service/qmail-smtpd: file does not exist
svc: warning: unable to control /service/qmail-smtpd/log: file does not exist
qmail-send
svc: warning: unable to control /service/qmail-send: file does not exist
svc: warning: unable to control /service/qmail-send/log: file does not exist
qmail-pop3d
svc: warning: unable to control /service/qmail-pop3d: file does not exist
svc: warning: unable to control /service/qmail-pop3d/log: file does not exist



I’d love to get the solution. Thanks in advance for your kind support.


Thank You,
Kahafil Ora

Check if there exist the symlinks under the /service directory to the actual control files/directories under /var/qmail/supervise
Code:
ls -l /service
Note that you need to install daemontools in order for /service to be created

Hi Bathory,

Thank you for giving me a way to figure out my problem but I couldn't get possitive solution. In fine, I've been able to get solution by applying the following---

create a new file called svscan.conf, and put the following contents in:

# vim /etc/init/svscan.conf

start on runlevel [345]
respawn
exec /command/svscanbootnow


# initctl reload-configuration
# initctl start svscan


Now its working properly.



Thank you,
Kahafil Ora
