How to stop running Postmaster process ?

Hi No incoming mails to my queues. The /var/log/messages shows the following error. How can I stop the running postmaster process?. I had tried ./PostmasterPOP3.pl -f 1, but the problem still exists. Please help.

I got this error as well and no one seems to know how to fix it. I should not have upgraded to 2.1 -----Original Message----- From: otrs-bounces@otrs.org [mailto:otrs-bounces@otrs.org] On Behalf Of BipinDas Sent: Tuesday, October 17, 2006 6:57 AM To: User questions and discussions about OTRS.org Subject: [otrs] How to stop running Postmaster process ?

Try a ps -aux , see where Postmaster is running (seems like it's 1837) and use the "kill" command kill [PID] Maurice James Ny wrote:

I tried ps -aux and pop isn't listed anywhere. It's only in the process_id table, and if I manually delete it just puts it back and gives the same error. I checked the user credentials and they are correct. I can't under stand how they can break such a simple feature with a new release -----Original Message----- From: otrs-bounces@otrs.org [mailto:otrs-bounces@otrs.org] On Behalf Of Danie Sent: Friday, January 19, 2007 9:55 AM To: User questions and discussions about OTRS.org Subject: Re: [otrs] How to stop running Postmaster process ?
