re: configure freepopsd.pid file

@Comment by Glandvador can you help

does anyone know how to configure this issue/problem of the freepopsd.pid file not being created under mac osx 10.4.11 tiger?

I have this problem too because apple mail.app is run under a regular non-admin user accounts only.

ie. not running apple mail.app to send/retrieve emails under admin account

it should be somewhat similar to configuring a unix file, correct?

Thank you for any assistance and help as to what to do.

cheers!

Hi Francesco,

Just some things I have done in my configuration:

1) added -n flag in the /etc/sysconfig/freepopsd file
The daemon will create a file /var/run/freepopsd.pid as root but unable to access it later as it drops privileges due to -s nobody.nobody flag.
2) in file logrotate.d/freepopsd replaced restart by condrestart
If I have installed the package it doesn’t mean I want to have it work when the system decide to rotates log files

If any of them make sense for you please add them to the rpm package.

Hi Stefano,
Freepops for Fedora core 11 is not ready yet.
I hope to make it available as soon as possible.
So yes, you have just to wait for a new version!

Bye!

Hello, (I’m italian too, but i’m trying to speak English for others) here is my question: is there a new version of your repo for fedora 11?
The one that I’ve installed is ok, but when I use yum or Package-kit, there is the following msg:
“Cannot retrieve repository metadata (repomd.xml) for repository: flaurita. Please verify its path and try again”
I’m not very expert in Linux…
Anyway, do I have to modify any configuration file? (I don’t know which and where they are) or do I just wait for a new version?

Thanks!

Aha, I see. It’s too bad that’s so difficult to create packages valid for downstream…
