E-mail Notifications Stopped Working

    Quote from ryecoaaron

    So it is working again? If you download the package again, I am curious if it works without /var/spool now. If you don't want to break things again, i understand.

    So what should I do now? Install the test version again?

    Yes. After I removed the test version of Flash 7.1, the mail worked. I rebooted the server and everything was OK. Then I reinstalled the test Flash 7.1 and the mail still works. Maybe my mistake was that the first time I installed Flash 7.1 on top of Flash 7.0.1... I will continue to observe, but so far everything works...

    I can see how the upgrade might cause an issue. Glad to hear it works.

    I just tried the latest version of the plugin. Still breaks things here. I have some rsyslog events that generate emails but those stop working with the plugin installed. When I uninstall the plugin I get mailbombed with all those pending notices.

    A backup strategy is worthless unless you have a verified to work by testing restore strategy.

    Are you installing the plugin from the repository, or the latest test version of 7.1? I currently have 7.1 working as it should...

    It's been working for almost two hours and everything is still ok...

    Well, if it's any consolation I have been stumped since it broke last year sometime. :)

    I applied the latest version to one of my RPI's, and it seems to be working so far. After rebooting, I triggered a couple of test notifications, and they came through immediately. I applied the new version on top of the old one (v7.0.1), and it appeared to properly uninstall the previous version before installing. Having said that, the old version still appears to be installed in Plugins. I'll keep testing, and if notifications stop working, I'll perform a proper uninstall of the old version and reinstall of the new version.


    Interestingly, my other RPi seems to be working OK without the new version. The only real difference between the two is that one has 4GB RAM while the other has 8GB. Otherwise, they are both RPi 4's running completely up-to-date OMV instances.


    Thanks ryecoaaron for the instructions and continued assistance.

    You didn't want to post all the output? I'm surprised folder2ram is still installed. The 7.1 flashmemory plugin kicks off a background job to uninstall it. Installing the flashmemory plugin again should remove it. I did just upload a significant change in the 7.1 plugin. It adds a datatable for each zram directory. This will allow people to edit the size of the mounts, add or remove mounts, and remove swap if they don't need it.

    ryecoaaron Hello! Today I had a new problem with the test version 7.1. Today there was a big update that included a kernel update. I installed it via the command - omv-upgrade. At the end of the update I got an error:

    I tried to solve this using the "apt-get -f install" command, but I also got an error.

    Then I uninstalled the Flash 7.1 plugin

    omv 7.7.1-2 (Sandworm) | 64 bit | kernel 6.12.12+bpo-amd64

    plugins : backup 7.1.4 | compose 7.4.2 | cputemp 7.0.2 | flashmemory 7.1.0-2 | ftp 7.0-5 | omvextrasorg 7.0.2 | onedrive 7.1.4-3 | remotemount 7.0.2 | sftp 7.0.3 | sharerootfs 7.0-1 |

    After removing the plugin, the "apt-get -f install" command worked without errors

    By the way, I don't see any problems with mail with the 7.1 plugin installed. It worked for a day and during all this time I received all the letters. Now, after the update, I have installed the 7.1 plugin again.

    Your problem (and mine) was caused by /var/tmp being too small. 250M/750M is working for me. Still trying to figure out what a good size is. Unfortunately, you installed the update before the changed plugin which will change /var/tmp to 250M

    I uninstalled the original flashmemory plugin, rebooted, and installed the latest test version. Output looks the same:

    Everything seems to be working fine.
