I upgraded a server to 5.2-RELEASE last weekend and since then I've had
no end of trouble with the postfix mail server. Mail hangs in the queue
with errors like:
81D5A90020 15421 Mon Jan 12 10:42:23 email@address
(temporary failure. Command output: couldn't connect to lmtpd: Unknown
error: 0_ 421 4.3.0 deliver: couldn't connect to lmtpd_ )
It appears that the lmtpd is hanging on syslog output... nothing is
getting written to syslog at all.
If I kill and restart syslogd by hand I get:
# /usr/sbin/syslogd -s
syslogd: timed out waiting for child
Is this a known problem? Is there a workaround?
Joe
