      I could get it working only if I change user to root.

      I'll keep trying to use it with unprivileged user.

        Strange thing here today:

        Dec  2 17:31:54 172.16.0.201 Dec  2 17:32:58 mailscanner: Process did not exit cleanly, returned 0 with signal 11

        I tryed to turn on Debug=yes flag and:

        Dec  2 17:20:52 172.16.0.201 Dec  2 17:21:56 php: /pkg_edit.php: The command '/usr/pbi/mailscanner-i386/etc/rc.d/mailscanner start' returned exit code '1', the output was 'Starting mailscanner. perl: warning: Setting locale failed. perl: warning: Please check that your locale settings: LC_ALL = (unset), LANG = "en_US.ISO8859-1"    are supported and installed on your system. perl: warning: Falling back to the standard locale ("C").

        any hint ?
        thanks

          Tried to reinstall the pkg, and disable virus and spam scan, but the problem persist.
          Each Mailscanner children go zombie.
          I also noticed that when disableing the third part scan from the postfix forwarder package mail remain in hold in queue (manually removed /^Received:/ HOLD  from header_checks). New mails arrive, but old mails stay in the queue.

            I think I've isolated the problem.
            I it's all about SpamAssassin
            with Use SpamAssassin = no in MailScanner.conf it starts

                have you tried to reinstall the mailscanner pkg ?

                  Hi Giacomo,

                  Yes, I did reinstall the package… but same result.
                  Even a fresh install did not fixed the problem. (Fresh install from 2.0.3 with update to 2.1)

                    I am experiencing the same results of MailScanner on my pfSense 2.0.1 upgrade to 2.1-Release but on the AMD64 platform as ikbendeman.  I even performed a clean install of pfSense 2.1-Release, then Postfix, then MailScanner.  I have re-installed MailScanner package several times but it still fails to start with this response:

                    Dec 8 16:00:17 root: /usr/pbi/mailscanner-amd64/etc/rc.d/mailscanner: WARNING: failed to start mailscanner
                    Dec 8 16:00:17 php: /pkg_edit.php: The command '/usr/pbi/mailscanner-amd64/etc/rc.d/mailscanner start' returned exit code '1', the output was 'Starting mailscanner. eval: /usr/pbi/mailscanner-amd64/sbin/mailscanner: not found /usr/pbi/mailscanner-amd64/etc/rc.d/mailscanner: WARNING: failed to start mailscanner'

                    When I try and manually start from the Services GUI, I get this:

                    Dec 8 17:31:37 php: /status_services.php: The command '/usr/local/etc/rc.d/mailscanner stop' returned exit code '1', the output was 'mailscanner not running? (check /var/run/MailScanner.pid).'
                    Dec 8 17:31:39 root: /usr/local/etc/rc.d/mailscanner: WARNING: failed to start mailscanner

                    Being that pfSense 2.1 uses a different tree directory, it seems that MailScanner (4.84.5_3 pkg v.0.2.2 ) is not ready for pfSense 2.1.

                    I would hate to have to downgrade pfSense to 2.0.1 in order for MailScanner to work right.

                      Your manual start failed cause you are using the wrong rc script.
                      You have to use /usr/pbi/mailscanner-amd64/etc/rc.d/mailscanner start/stop
                      If you don't have, create the link:

                      ls -l /usr/local/sbin/mailscanner

                      lrwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  43 Dec  2 18:33 /usr/local/sbin/mailscanner -> /usr/pbi/mailscanner-i386/.sbin/mailscanner
                      adapt to your architecture (amd64)

                        you advice to run: /usr/local/sbin/mailscanner (where mailscanner is in the hidden .sbin directory)

                        ll /usr/local/sbin/mailscanner
                        lrwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  43 Dec  8 06:37 /usr/local/sbin/mailscanner -> /usr/pbi/mailscanner-i386/.sbin/mailscanner

                        Then mailscanner doesn't return an error but mailscanner is not started!

                        ps ax | grep -i mailscanner
                        19657  ??  Is    3:02.05 /usr/pbi/mailscanner-i386/sbin/clamd
                        93386  0  R+    0:00.00 grep -i mailscanner

                        The confusion starts with two mailscanner scripts:

                        ll /usr/pbi/mailscanner-i386/sbin/mailscanner
                        -r-xr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  67459 Dec  8 06:40 /usr/pbi/mailscanner-i386/sbin/mailscanner
                        ll /usr/pbi/mailscanner-i386/.sbin/mailscanner
                        -rwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  8956 Dec  6 17:04 /usr/pbi/mailscanner-i386/.sbin/mailscanner

                        Restarting mailscanner in the GUI doesn't work either.

                        Pls advice

                        Regards

                        Bob

                          I am not able to set this:

                          Sign Clean Message = no

                          I created the file:
                          /usr/pbi/mailscanner-i386/etc/MailScanner/conf.d/custom.conf
                          and put there the option and restart mailscanner, but nothing happens.

                          some help ?
                          thanks

                            Hi Marcello,

                            Did you try MailWatch on 2.1 ?
                            You said in another post that in 2.0 it breaks pfsense php…

                            The most wanted feature of mailwatch is probably the Quarantine management.
                            Is it still in the roadmap for mailscanner ?

                            Thanks

                              Hello Marcelloc, after update mailscanner fails with SpamAssassin, and I think not scanning messages anymore.

                                  I could get it working only if I change user to root.

                                  I'll keep trying to use it with unprivileged user.

                                  Have you found any solution for clamd error?

                                    Setting Maximum Archive depth to 0 did the trick.
                                    A reboot is also necessary because somehow a service restart throw an error not having permission to stop and restart postfix.

                                      I've still problems with starting MailScanner.

                                      I did a fresh install of pfSense 2.1 and restored my config. But still a red cross for MailScanner.

                                      When I start MailScanner manually, I get these messages:

                                      Stopping mailscanner.
                                      Waiting for PIDS: 8725.
                                      Starting mailscanner.

                                      Error: Attempt to create locks in /var/spool/MailScanner/incoming/Locks failed!

                                      I believe the permissions on the Locks directory are right.

                                      drwxr-xr-x  2 postfix  wheel  512 Dec 17 21:37 Locks

                                      Pls advice.

                                      Bob

                                        I'm not getting this folder permission error but I've pushed fixes to service status and pyzor checks.

                                        Try to reinstall the package.

                                          Hi

                                          I've upgrade the mailscanner pkg to 4.84.5_3 pkg v.0.2.4 but I've still problems with spamassassin.
                                          If I turn on spam check, every MailScanner children go zombie and from logs I can only see:
                                          mailscanner: Process did not exit cleanly, returned 0 with signal 11
                                          If I try /usr/pbi/mailscanner-i386/bin/spamassassin –lint I don't see syntax error
                                          The daemon is running:

                                          ps aux | grep spamd

                                          root    60399  0.0  0.8 36664 34000  ??  Ss    3Dec13  4:16.37 /usr/pbi/mailscanner-i386/bin/spamd -c -d -r /var/run/spamd/spamd.pid (perl)
                                          root    70258  0.0  0.9 37688 34692  ??  I    3Dec13  0:02.40 spamd child (perl)
                                          root    70542  0.0  0.8 36664 34000  ??  I    3Dec13  0:02.44 spamd child (perl)

                                          I don't know what to try...
                                          There is the way to pass custom directives to mailscanner ?

                                          thanks

                                          Giacomo

                                            Disable pyzor checks and see if spamassassin starts working.
