I just noticed a lot of mail was still queue'd to be delievered.
Digging around found a ton of procmail processes just sitting idle.
Tracing one of the processes gave this:
stat64("_tGF.P6TBBB.wally", {st_mode=S_IFREG|0400, st_size=1, ...}) = 0
link("_tGF.P6TBBB.wally", ".lock") = -1 EEXIST (File exists)
lstat64("_tGF.P6TBBB.wally", {st_mode=S_IFREG|0400, st_size=1, ...}) = 0
lstat64(".lock", {st_mode=S_IFREG|0400, st_size=1, ...}) = 0
unlink("_tGF.P6TBBB.wally") = 0
lstat64(".lock", {st_mode=S_IFREG|0400, st_size=1, ...}) = 0
lstat64(".lock", {st_mode=S_IFREG|0400, st_size=1, ...}) = 0
rt_sigprocmask(SIG_BLOCK, [CHLD], [], 8) = 0
rt_sigaction(SIGCHLD, NULL, {SIG_DFL}, 8) = 0
rt_sigprocmask(SIG_SETMASK, [], NULL, 8) = 0
nanosleep({8, 0}, {8, 0}) = 0
time(NULL) = 1090862743
write(2, "procmail: [20909] Mon Jul 26 13:"..., 43) = 43
write(2, "procmail: Locking \".lock\"\n", 26) = 26
lstat64("_tGF,P6TBBB.wally", 0xbffff97c) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or
directory)
open("_tGF,P6TBBB.wally", O_WRONLY|O_CREAT|O_EXCL, 0444) = 5
write(5, "0", 1) = 1
close(5) = 0
stat64("_tGF,P6TBBB.wally", {st_mode=S_IFREG|0400, st_size=1, ...}) = 0
link("_tGF,P6TBBB.wally", ".lock") = -1 EEXIST (File exists)
lstat64("_tGF,P6TBBB.wally", {st_mode=S_IFREG|0400, st_size=1, ...}) = 0
lstat64(".lock", {st_mode=S_IFREG|0400, st_size=1, ...}) = 0
unlink("_tGF,P6TBBB.wally") = 0
lstat64(".lock", {st_mode=S_IFREG|0400, st_size=1, ...}) = 0
lstat64(".lock", {st_mode=S_IFREG|0400, st_size=1, ...}) = 0
rt_sigprocmask(SIG_BLOCK, [CHLD], [], 8) = 0
rt_sigaction(SIGCHLD, NULL, {SIG_DFL}, 8) = 0
rt_sigprocmask(SIG_SETMASK, [], NULL, 8) = 0
nanosleep({8, 0}, {8, 0}) = 0
time(NULL) = 1090862751
write(2, "procmail: [20909] Mon Jul 26 13:"..., 43) = 43
write(2, "procmail: Locking \".lock\"\n", 26) = 26
lstat64("_tGF+P6TBBB.wally", 0xbffff97c) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or
directory)
open("_tGF+P6TBBB.wally", O_WRONLY|O_CREAT|O_EXCL, 0444) = 5
write(5, "0", 1) = 1
close(5) = 0
That was repeated constantly. Commenting out the following line in my
.procmailrc has helped:
#:0fw:
#| /usr/bin/crm -u /home/nomad/crm114 /usr/share/crm114/mailfilter.crm
Anyone have any ideas what might have changed?
:wq!
