can't delete sendmail queue
deepak sharma |can't delete sendmail queue
milap |hi Kumar
there all lot of way to remove queue log..
1) sendmail -v -q in root prompt.
it will clear all pending mails. you can also confirm by running mailq command
If you are interested in deleting particular domain or user or recepitience mail, use this command
2) sendmail -qS -v test.com it will delete all mail from *@test.com
3) sendmail -qR -v hotmail.com it will delete all mail from recepient of hotmail
either
4) you follow your same step but before that please stop demon of sendmail.
let us know update........

RE: RE: RE: can't delete sendmail queue
Kumar Shukla |Milap / Tejas,
I encountered same issue on this server in last week with vsftpd service and it resolved after rebooting the server. We didn’t realize what went wrong with that so we continued it and today it started with sendmail.
Since this is customer’s live server and we need to take downtime for the same.
How can I conclude this problem? Which log can give me exact error except /var/log/messages and dmesg? I want to give justification to customer before giving any solution.
Look forward your answer..
Thanks & regards,
Kumar

there all lot of way to remove queue log..
1) sendmail -v -q in root prompt.
it will clear all pending mails. you can also confirm by running mailq command
If you are interested in deleting particular domain or user or recepitience mail, use this command
2) sendmail -qS -v test.com it will delete all mail from *@test.com
3) sendmail -qR -v hotmail.com it will delete all mail from recepient of hotmail
either
4) you follow your same step but before that please stop demon of sendmail.
let us know update........

RE: RE: can't delete sendmail queue
ElectroMech |Hi Kumar,
1. The Data Cable problem
2. Power cable problem
3. Power supply problem
4. Hard Disk problem itself.
I would suggest do not use the same hard disk change the disk or at least check it properly so it should not happened again.
Mostly in your case it seems to be temporary power supply problem.
Check the output of UPS.
