IMspector log problem

neggard

I'm using pfsense 1.2 RC4 and have some problem with IMspector.
IMspector dont log anything.
Nothing in Secure Shell and nothing in var/IMspector

Have search abit for this but dont find anything. I really need this to work.

What could I try?

rsw686

Start imspector in debug mode with -d and see if the clients are connecting and it is receiving the messages.

/usr/local/sbin/imspector -c /usr/local/etc/imspector/imspector.conf -d

How does I start it in debug mode?

neggard

I edit the startup script and still no logs.

Where should I look for info if the IMspector is loading and working?

rsw686

I gave you the command to run it in debug mode. When you do this it will show all the output on the console. You should see clients connecting and the message they send on the console.

What client program are you using?

neggard

OK now I understand.

Well I try Putty but when I write
/usr/local/sbin/imspector -c /usr/local/etc/imspector/imspector.conf -d

I got this message:
imspector: Error: IMSpector is already running

So how do I stop it before?
Sorry but I am really bad at this.

rsw686

Either via the pfSense webgui status -> services. Or via the console

/usr/local/etc/rc.d/imspector.sh stop

Using MSN live Version 2008 Build 8.5.1302.1018
I got this error.

rsw686

Stop imspector and remove the /tmp/.imspectorlog file if it exists. Check the permission on /tmp. Should work with 755, but I would try 777 just to see. Use chmod to change them and ls -la to view them.

neggard

Found a logfile and delete it, it was empty.

chmod is 0777 so it should be ok.

But still
imspector: Connect socket, connect() failed to /tmp/.imspectorlog
imspector: Error: Unable to communicate with logging process
