I downloaded and installed Geeklog - all seemed to go well.
I installed to /home/geeklog, and gave apache full ownership of the
directory. Then I made the virtual site point to that directory.
Everything loads up just fine. I can register a new user just fine, but
the email that should be sent to the new user when they register never
arrives in their inbox.
This is on a Gentoo Linux 1.4 system, which is serving email for me and my
family with sendmail.
Looking at /var/log/syslog, I see the following entry:
Jun 9 19:19:29 lancelot sendmail[25209]: NOQUEUE: SYSERR(apache): can not
write to queue directory /var/spool/clientmqueue/ (RunAsGid=0,
required=209): Permission denied
The /var/spool/clientmqueue directory is owned by UID/GID smmsp, and has
owner/group perms for read/write/execute, but no "other" perms at all.
I've tried adding apache to the smmsp group, and that didn't help.
I don't want to mess with perms on that clientmqueue directory, for fear of
causing a security problem, or worse, breaking my mail server.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Steven
