Hi,

I checked the sendmail and it is:
[root@godslove root]# which sendmail
/usr/sbin/sendmail
Plesk uses sendmail and this is what is listed in my form that was working.

I tried my form at 7:27 am this morning and this is the last listing in
/var/log/messages
Jul  3 07:05:42 godslove authpsa: IMAP connect from @ [67.138.221.157]

There are no listings in /var/log/maillog.

These are the settings in FormMail.pl:

Hi,

I am using CentOS 3.5 plus the Plesk reloaded 7.3 server admin and just
recently did a small upgrade of some plesk packages plus the update from
CentOS 3.4 to 3.5.

It seems that all of my forms have stopped working using nms FormMail.pl
script.  Everything was working before these last two updates.  I have debug
set on the form script and it does work without any errors but I never get
the email that a form was submitted.

The server company I get my server through did a test on one of the forms
and I got the technician's email but when I went to test the very same form
I did not get an email.  The technician tested from the company so I am
thinking this might be some permissions problem with something on my server
as the technician would have higher permissions than myself.

Another strange occurrence is that whenever a customer of one of my
customers on my server submits my client's email form I am getting an email
instead of my client showing the details of the form.

I have checked all the forms thoroughly and there is nothing wrong with them
and since they all were working and now are not working that the problem is
with the server itself.

Can someone give me some ideas of where to look for this problem because we
are stumped?

I don't use plesk, but since the form worked for the technician, I would
suspect a problem with either name lookups, what IP your mail server is
listening on, or your MTA setup.

The first thing you need to do is look at /var/log/maillog and see if
the messages are making it through the local server and getting to an
external server.  Any errors, reasons for non delivery, etc. should be
in /var/log/maillog or /var/log/messages.

I don't even know which MTA plesk uses (sendmail, postfix, etc.) ... but
that is where I would start.

 use the following command to check your path to sendmail

 you may need to modify the $mailprog variable in FormMail.pl

Yeah lilo rocks when it works.

but you cannot create a lilo floppy for a server whose kernel you have
no idea about nor does it give you a CLI that will allow you to find and
load a kernel from the box.

poorly documented? over complicated?

I beg to differ. Commands are so simple.

1) Switch to filesystem at this location and make it root.
  root (device:part)
  you can also use tab to do command completion so typing root ([tab]
will then give you the list of devices available and their part.
2) another command for loading a kernel image with parameters
  kernel /path/to/image parameters
  kernel (device:part)/path/to/image parameters
3) another command for loading an initrd image
  initrd /path/to/initrdimage
  initrd (device:path)/path/to/initrdimage

configuration for the boot menu is basically a grouping of the above
commands.

And for 2) and 3) you can also use tab for command completion to find
the kernel/initrd image files.

lilo is great when it works otherwise it is just a limited bootloader.

This hardly does justice to the power and flexibility that grub gives
you. Now that FC4 Anaconda does root on mirror install right, the last
likely to be widely encountered problem with using grub on RH/FC will be
toast. If you ask me, this one is the only problem people have with grub
sans those who can't be bothered to learn grub properly.

I'll differ on this.

We at PARI are currently running two live servers that are UltraSPARC
II-based, in particular, Ultra30's.  The specs: USIIi 248MHz, 384MB RAM,
2x4.2GB UW SCSI drives).  Is it a barnburner?  No.  Its performance beats a
400MHz Pentium II with IDE two to one, though, running the same apps I am
using the Ultra30's for.  Very usable machines.  More usable than the quad
AlphaServer 2100 I have, that's for sure (the AS2100 we have is configured
with four 275MHz EV45's and a GB of RAM with the DAC960 hardware RAID
controller, and burns 800+ watts).  Although proper setup and optimization
might make the AS2100 worthwhile, particularly since I can run CentOS on it!
Still, it takes 800 watts!

My U30's are doing antivirus, antispam, webmail, and regular e-mail
services,
running Aurora Linux 1.92 (Fedora Core 2, basically, for SPARC).  The
machines are responsive, fairly low load average running, and moderate
e-mail
volume being processed.  Profiling them, the MailScanner activities use the
most CPU.

The hardware is more reliable than comparable Intel hardware would be
(comparable, again, being a PII 400+ with 256-384MB RAM, an Adaptec 2940UW,
and 8GB Seagate UW drives: I know this because I have benchmarked another of
our servers here that is a dual 400MHz PII with those drives and came up
with
comparable numbers (using UnixBench 4.1, which benchmarks quite a few
areas)).  Those U30s are built like tanks; they also take approximately the
same amount of power as the dual 400 does; about 100 watts.

Now, if you're going to compare the E4500 to Intel hardware, you need to
look
at high-end Proliants and PowerEdges of that time period, not modern Dell
PowerEdges.  Hmmm, there weren't any comparable Intel servers in that time
period (with the exception of Sequent's Dynix stuff that ran dozens of 66Hz
486's and cost a mint).

And when you (we) are donated 30 Ultra 30 workstations, you (we) use them.

Those 486's just seemed that slow.... in reality they ran at 66MHz.

Actually E4500's are not bad machines. Yes, they are slow compared to
PeeCee's/servers these days, but they are still darn reliable. I had a
couple of E4500's with 8x400 Mhz US-II ( 8 MB Cache), 8 GB RAM connected
to a A5100. They ran reliably and flawlessly (except for replacing the
battery on A5100). They have a lot of resilience to load. We've had load
averages of up to 300-350 on the machine and it didn't break a sweat.
I've had many other machine crumble to this heavy load.

Now only if they were more energy friendly!

Warm Regards,

-Bruno

Then you're luckier than us... About 40% of our E4500s had centerplane or
clockboard errors over the last year... :-(  the system and io boards seem
to
be fine but the clock boards definitely don't age gracefully...
But if you have working hardware, yep - they surely are stable...

And it should be noted these are II"i" processors/interconnects.
Not nearly as capable in the interconnect-I/O as a true II (let alone
III/IV).

I still take in 4+ way UltraSPARC II systems when I'm at companies.
They are many tasks where their distributed interconnects are very
useful.

And discussing them would be more on-topic if there were a CentOS/SPARC64,
which would be nice to no end.

Agreed.  But at the same time, there is something to be said for
Solaris.  While Solaris (especially GNU/Solaris) might be partially on-
topic for a Linux list, you are correct, it's not for this CentOS list.

It's funny where we've gone since Bruno's post, and the couple of back'n
forths after that before I (let alone yourself) entered.

Any other ideas?

Try restarting GPM services.  If that works, then try disabling GPM

Yes, and it would be nice if we can keep the off-topic stuff off the list.

Even though it contains a lot of information someone might find useful,
most of the people on the list consider it noise and it brings down the
signal-to-noise ratio of the list.

It happened now 3 or 4 times that we got an overly long off-topic
discussion (flamewar even) which most of the subscribers are really not
interested in. (I hope I can speak for most here anyway)

Keep it CentOS related please, as soon as you have a non-CentOS related
argument or monologue, keep it off-list.

PS This is a general statement, not targetting Bryan specifically here.

that unfortunately means teh system wont  do a real poweroff if the UPS
instructs it to.

dropped down to  2.4.31 kernel and the problem seems to have gone away
so I think your right, its the 2.6.x kernel doing what it should,
regrettably we dont want it to :)

hi, i am running the latest centos 4.1 on a vmware esx server - i'm
having an issue where all my iptables output is being echoed to the
vmware primary console, yet my syslog conf is the same as on a rh es4
server.. anyone run into this before, or know how to shut the console
logging of iptables off alltogether?

also, i'm seeing "%2C" in some logs instead of spaces, and man pages
have weird characters as well, and all basic env vars are the same
between both rh es4 and 4.1, (lang, etc) .. i'm using LANG=en_US.UTF-8
on both. anyone run into this issue either? (I've also seen it on one
es3 server before, but it went away with some "up2dates")..

thanks,
jamie

Oh, well.  Than the only way to check it out is for me is to attempt to
implement it and see how it goes.  I was just hoping somebody already
did it (or at least attempted to do it), and could tell me if it works
or doesn't work.

What about changing the power-saving options in bios to do
what you want?

I'm sure they were all set to disable, one of the first things we normally
do :)

There is an option you can put on the end of the kernel line
in /boot/grub/grub.conf that turns off some acpi features and it might
work:

acpi=ht

Believe it or not ... there is a plan for a future SPARC distro for
CentOS.  It is only in the planning stages now :)

There is already an beta 4.1 release for the ALPHA processor.

Why?  Are there THAT many of these boxes laying around to overcome the
PITA factor of generating a new release?

Just curious.  S390 CentOS coming soon too?  :-P
