[mailto:web...@li...] On Behalf Of Jamie Cameron Sent: Tuesday, May 30, 2006 12:31 AM To: web...@li... Subject: RE: [webmin-l] Automatic restarting of Failed processes Can Webmin send mail at all? You could test this using the Read User Mail module to try sending one .. It is possible that mail from Webmin isn't going out at all, perhaps due to an incorrectly configured SMTP server. - Jamie On 29/May/2006 18:28 dav...@da... wrote .. > Hum... weird. > > I don't even see a log for Webmin sending the e-mail, and I have it setup > to > send the mail. > > David Coley > Codecipher > > -----Original Message----- > From: web...@li... > [mailto:web...@li...] On Behalf Of Jamie > Cameron > Sent: Monday, May 29, 2006 1:46 AM > To: web...@li... > Subject: RE: [webmin-l] Automatic restarting of Failed processes > > Hi David, > I wouldn't recommand using a check for the existence of the PID file, > as if Apache crashes or it terminated that file may still exist (but > contain an invalid PID).
