Hello,

I believe that this template mailscanner_stats has failed to load, the Unnet Dependency lines are highlighted in red when I import the template.

Am I correct? and does any one have any ideas on how to solve it please.

I have updated the files of the scripts (watchmaillog.sh end the all the other .sh)
When my server do a log rotation this program can not read the maillog file any more.
I do the rotation every day.
Before I update the script it was working goed anly the program started over and over again.
Now is run only one time en stays in memory but the file is not read anymore. Can you help my correct this problem?

kind regards,
rbl

When I get back into the office tomorrow I'll export the versions I have that I'm using in 0.8.7.

Hi all, I've exported the data and graph templates again out of my Cacti 0.8.7. For some reason many people have had problems with my exports but give them a try and get back to me with the results. I'll dig into the XML files if any problems arise.

That's the same error that some have been getting for a while.

I'll dig into it and see what's failing.

Hello,

I have the same problem with roliver.

Today i tried to install the sendmail & mailscanner on my version 0.8.6j cacti installation, but i had the same problem that roliver noticed.

Then i upgraded my cacti installation tο version 0.8.7a. I reinstalled the templates(both data and graph) from the scratch, but the same problem occured again.

Has anyone find any solution to that problem??

Is anyone else seeing problems with watchmaillog.pl not restarting on a SIGHUP? I have found several cases of it hanging in wait(), apparently waiting for the log tail process to die.
