Re: Exim errors

[Craig Shelley <craig@microtron.org.uk>]

Hello,

I am having exactly the same problem with exim.
The postmaster account receives the following errors by email, daily.

failed to open DB file /var/spool/exim/db/retry: File exists
failed to open DB file /var/spool/exim/db/wait-remote_smtp: File exists

I have tried deleting the databases so that exim rebuilds them.
The /etc/cron.daily/exim cron script runs without error if run from the
command line.

The problem seemed to start after the last upgrade of the exim package
to 3.35-1woody3.
