Description of problem: /etc/NetworkManager/dispatcher.d/10-sendmail does a "service sendmail reload" on network status change. This happens on resume from hibernate, but it appears to result in sendmail dying. Last messages in /var/log/sendmail are: Apr 29 08:06:05 orca sendmail[22644]: restarting /usr/sbin/sendmail due to signal Apr 29 08:06:05 orca sm-msp-queue[22653]: restarting /usr/sbin/sendmail due to signal but no sendmail processes are running. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): sendmail-8.14.3-3.fc10.i386 How reproducible: everytime
Does this happen when reloaded manually? Any segfaults reported in /var/log/messages?
I can restart fine manually. No segfaults in /var/log/messages. Must be something about the environment just after resume.
Running sendmail under strace -f leads me to believe the problem may be the arrival of two SIGHUP signals - one as the machine is hibernating and the other as the machine is waking up. The first reload doesn't complete before the system is down, and the second one occurs before the proper SIGHUP handler is installed and the process is killed. Removing /etc/NetworkManager/dispatcher.d/10-sendmail certainly stops the problem from occurring. Not sure of the best solution.
Does it work when "|| [ "$2" = "down" ]" is removed from the dispatcher script?
(In reply to comment #4) > Does it work when "|| [ "$2" = "down" ]" is removed from the dispatcher script? That seems to work fine.
I was able to reproduce it by running pkill -HUP sendmail in a loop, but still didn't see it in a normal operation. Do you have a large table or anything that would significantly differ from default configuration?
This message is a reminder that Fedora 10 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 10. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '10'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 10's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 10 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this bug to the applicable version. If you are unable to change the version, please add a comment here and someone will do it for you. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping
Fedora 10 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2009-12-17. Fedora 10 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
