Shutting down sm-client: [FAILED]

[Yasser Nagy]

Dear All
I successfully upgrade sendmail from 8.12.5 to 8.12.7 by compiling sendmail
8.12.7.
I followed the instructions to compile then I notice something unusual when
I restart the sendmail service:
/etc/rc.d/init.d/sendmail restart

Shutting down sendmail: [ OK ]
Shutting down sm-client: [FAILED]
Starting sendmail: [ OK ]
Starting sm-client: [ OK ]

Could you help me to fix this error please at Shutting down sm-client

Many thanks for your cooperation in advance

What OS/release do you use ?
Do you use sendmail from sendmail.org ?

e.g. sendmail 8.12 packaged by Red Hat stores sm-client pid in
/var/run/sm-client.pid file (non default location). You can make sm-client use
pid file location the script expects by adding the following line to submit.mc
and generating new submit.cf:
define(`confPID_FILE',`/var/run/sm-client.pid')dnl

Thank you very much for your reply,
I checked everything is the same exactly as you said, that means I do not
need to change anything. Then I ran m4 /etc/mail/submit.mc >
/etc/mail/submit.cf
then restart sendmail service -> everything seems working good so far.
Again many thanks for your help
Have a great day
