Problems restarting james

Hi-

I'm just trying out James on Linux, but I find that if I stop
it (by hitting Ctrl-C) and restart it, it stops answering
on port 25 and port 4555.  When I try telnetting into those
ports it hangs before printing the welcome message.

Any ideas what might cause this?  I was able to deliver mail
to it before I restarted it.  I was able to get it to work
again by reinstalling it from scratch, but each time I
restart it, it stops working.  There don't appear to be any
relevant log messages.

Thanks,

-Mike

I don't know what causes it, but I've had to do 

  ps -f | grep java | awk '{print $2}' | xargs kill   

to make all the leftover threads go away.  This may be the case for you too.

I tried the most recent version from CVS - this seems to work
fine....  Thanks!

I would be kind of uncomfortable using a pre-alpha version
of James for very long, though; how close is a beta release?

Re: Problems restarting james

Posted by Mike Bridge <mi...@bridgecanada.com>.
I'm using 1.2.1rc2.  I installed it again from scratch and 
did this:

1) chmod 755 run.sh; ./run.sh
2) in another shell, make the following changes to JAMES.conf.xml:

==>   <postmaster>postmaster@bridgecanada.com</postmaster>

==>   <servernames autodetect="FALSE">
==>        <servername>lafeuillederable.ca</servername>
      </servernames>

       <remoteManager>
           <port>4555</port>
                 ...
           <administrator_accounts>
==>             <account login="root" password="mypassword"/>
           </administrator_accounts>
           <connectiontimeout> 60000 </connectiontimeout>
       </remoteManager>

       <dnsServer>
           <servers>
==>             <server>66.38.159.36</server>
==>             <server>66.38.159.37</server>
           </servers>
           <authoritative>false</authoritative>
       </dnsServer>

3) Hit "Enter" in the first window.  I see:
         2001.10.17 03:11:26 474 Channel default opened

4) Telnet in on 4555, add the user "testuser"

5) Send mail to testuser@lafeuillederable.ca from a separate machine

6) I can see from the logs that this was delivered to "spam" for 
some reason.  I can see these two files in the /var/mail/spam
directory.  

7) I hit Ctrl-C and restart.  James no longer is responding on
port 25 and 4555.

8) I hit Ctrl-C again and delete these two files in spam.

9) Restart, but still no response

10) Also tried setting helloName:
     <helloName autodetect="FALSE">edtn007849.hs.telusplanet.net</helloName>

11) Also tried setting James up, then killing it without sending
any email or logging in to port 4555.  This also causes it to hang.

postmaster@bridgecanada.com does exist....  That telusplanet.net
address is my MX record, and a reverse lookup can be done on that
IP address.  I don't know what else to try.  Thanks for 
your help,

-Mike

RE: Problems restarting james

Posted by Danny Angus <da...@thought.co.uk>.
What version are you using?

Check your mail box folders, and spool folder for files left behind after
the shutdown, particularly single files (they go in pairs, like policemen)

I've found that a message James doesn't like can cause problems when
re-starting if it is still in the system.

Messages james doesn't like can include messages to an unreachable
postmaster, or returned to an unreachable sender.

I had problems when my DNS couldn't lookup a meaningful IP address for James
to use for itself, though I'm not sure why it checked DNS for local
delivery.

That said I don't think I've come across any of this in the distributed
versions, only from time to time im the CVS version.

Re: james 1.2.1 numeric IP

Posted by Serge Knystautas <se...@lokitech.com>.
That error is specifically because of a bug in MailAddress.  You could try
to take the latest MailAddress code from CVS and put it into the old
version.  I don't think there were change to MailAddress aside from that and
some improvements to handling parser errors (instead of letting htem fall
through as runtime exceptions)

As I understand it the 1.2 version of James doesn't respond to changes in
loglevel. :-(

setting loglevel

Posted by pero <pe...@antaramusic.de>.
Hi,

I think I misunderstood something. I tried to lower the loglevel for most
channels by switching it from DEBUG to WARN. Therefor I edited all lines in
James-conf and Avalon-conf that defined such channels:

Example:
<channel name="SMTP"         loglevel="DEBUG"  logwriter="netfile"/>
became
<channel name="SMTP"         loglevel="WARN"  logwriter="netfile"/>

I did this for *all* lines that were affecting 'netfile' and 'infofile'. But
after restarting James, the logs were still full of (DEBUG) lines.

What am I doing wrong? The logfiles are getting *real* big (several Megs a
day) so I need to find a conclusion...

thanks,
pero

ok, then I'll have a closer look at the james sources now, and I will post a
message with my ideas and questions later on james-dev. I would prefer
writing an admin-interface too, because you're right - there are enough
webmailreader-projects out there...

Webadmin definitely!  Web-mailreader, I'm less excited about.  There are
many webmail projects, and James supports POP3 (and IMAP in the future) so
James doesn't need something special.  I do think it'd be nice to find a JSP
or servlet project that we bundle and/or suggest people use with James.  I
don't know what leading webmail OS projects are though.

AW: james 1.2.1 numeric IP

Posted by Peter Romianowski <pe...@antaramusic.de>.
I just changed the line:

df = new SimpleDateFormat("EE, d MMM yyyy HH:mm:ss");
to
df = new SimpleDateFormat("EE, d MMM yyyy HH:mm:ss", Locale.ENGLISH);

(just as the current CVS-Version)

and it works. Outlook tells the right month now. No longer "received on
19.01.2001" but "received 19.10.2001", because in the header the month is
set to Oct. If that was the only bug concerning german (or other) locales -
then it is working - yes.

btw: Wouldn't it be fun for you to localise your maschine to German? I mean
seeking the challenge? :-)

And I'll have a look at the MailAddress-diff of the 1.2.1-code against the
current to update the class (as Serge suggested).

another btw: Is the James-Group interrested in a Web-Admininterface and/or
Web-Mailreader based on tomcat4? I was wondering for quite long now, and I'm
really keen on writing such stuff.

cheers,
pero

james 1.2.1 numeric IP

Posted by Peter Romianowski <an...@gmx.de>.
Hi,

I'm using james 1.2.1 (and it works like a charm after fixing the "german
date"-problem)
I know that the "numeric ip" issue is fixed in the current cvs, but I dont't
want to switch to pre-alpha code for production. I get the following error:

2001.10.10 05:58:15 300 (ERROR) from SMTP: Error parsing sender address:
someuser/mail.someserver.de@[127.0.0.1]: Invalid number at position 25

Can someone tell me how to fix this for 1.2.1? (By updating a limited number
of files or even better lines of code...)
If it is not possible or would be too unstable, then I have to wait for 2.0
beta or something...

thanks,
pero

Re: Problems restarting james

This may not answer your questions... but anyway...
I ran James, then telnet'ed to port 110. Without disconnecting the telnet
session, I pressed ctrl-c. James couldn't stop. It just hung there. So I
did "killall -9 java"; started James again, and everything was fine.

So, in your case, try to disconnect the telnet session to port 4555 before
pressing ctrl-c.

BTW, reinstalling James is not the right cure for that kind of problem, I
believe...
