The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Inbound mail problem; Sendmail can not deliver mail to mailGate.php

Asked by haukkovaara in PHP Installation, SendMail Email Server

Tags:

I'm running OneOrZero Task Managament System  version 1.7.0.1 with PHP Version 5.2.1-pl3-gentoo, Apache 2 and MySQL 5. OS is Linux 2.6.19-gentoo-r5 #1 SMP.

Outbound mail works fine but inbound does not work at all. Well ok, smtp-traffic to my server works fine,
but sendmail can not forward mail to OneOrZero software:

Apr 27 10:21:54 helpdeskserver smrsh: uid 2: attempt to use "php /var/www/localhost/htdocs/mailgate/mailGate.php" (stat failed)
Apr 27 10:21:54 helpdeskserver sm-mta[10703]: l3R7LsUG010702: to="|php /var/www/localhost/htdocs/mailgate/mailGate.php", ctladdr=<helpdesk@helpdeskserver.mydomain.com> (2/0), delay=00:00:00, xdelay=00:00:00, mailer=prog, pri=32695, dsn=5.0.0, stat=Service unavailable
Apr 27 10:21:54 helpdeskserver sm-mta[10703]: l3R7LsUG010702: l3R7LsUG010703: DSN: Service unavailable

Well, I added symlinks to both php and mailGate.php in smrsh's folder which in this server is /usr/adm/sm.bin
Did not work, the error just changed to this:

Apr 27 10:26:21 helpdeskserver sm-mta[10814]: l3R7QLRJ010813: to="|php /var/www/localhost/htdocs/mailgate/mailGate.php", ctladdr=<helpdesk@helpdeskserver.mydomain.com> (2/0), delay=00:00:00, xdelay=00:00:00, mailer=prog, pri=32755, dsn=5.3.0, stat=unknown mailer error 255
Apr 27 10:26:21 helpdeskserver sm-mta[10814]: l3R7QLRJ010813: l3R7QLRJ010814: DSN: unknown mailer error 255

I also tried hard links and I even copied php and mailGate.php to /usr/adm/sm.bin
Still got that same unknown mailer error 255.

Here's what I have tried in my /etc/aliases, both variations seem to work same way:

#inbound mail for Task Management system
#helpdesk:  "|php -c /etc/php/apache2-php5/php.ini /var/www/localhost/htdocs/mailgate/mailGate.php"
helpdesk:  "|php /var/www/localhost/htdocs/mailgate/mailGate.php"

As far as I can see there's also nothing in php.ini that could prevent this system to work.

I'm totally in dead end now and any help would be appreciated...Start Free Trial
