Hi,

We've been happily using OTRS 5.0.20 on Debian 8.8 for 6 month now.

We've made no change at all (it's only 3 of us) to the config but last
night, the program stopped fetching emails.

I can still manually fetch emails going to
otrs/index.pl?Action=AdminMailAccount and clicking on [Fetch mail] but
it only download 10-15 at a time.

The cron was set as follow (on July 20th) :
Daemon::SchedulerCronTaskManager::Task###MailAccountFetch
- Function = Execute
- MaximumParallelInstances = 1
- Module = Kernel::System::Console::Command::Maint::PostMaster::MailAccountFetch
- Schedule = * * * * *
- TaskName = MailAccountFetch

There is NO error message in otrs/index.pl?Action=AdminLog.

I've tried the following :

1) Restart daemon > No luck
sudo -u otrs /opt/otrs/bin/otrs.Daemon.pl stop
sudo -u otrs /opt/otrs/bin/otrs.Daemon.pl start

2) Empty the cache > No luck
sudo -u otrs /opt/otrs/bin/otrs.Console.pl Maint::Cache::Delete

3) Restart daemon and mysql and empty the cache > No luck
sudo /opt/otrs/bin/Cron.sh stop otrs
sudo -u otrs /opt/otrs/bin/otrs.Daemon.pl stop
sudo /etc/init.d/mysql stop
sudo -u otrs /opt/otrs/bin/otrs.Console.pl Maint::Cache::Delete
sudo /etc/init.d/mysql start
sudo /opt/otrs/bin/Cron.sh start otrs
(the daemon restarted automatically after a few minutes)

What else can I do?

Regards

Hi,

did you try to execute this command in directory /opt/otrs/bin/ ?

su -c "./otrs.Console.pl Maint::PostMaster::MailAccountFetch --force-pid" -s /bin/bash otrs

Hi,

No I haven't tried it (or too late). Here is how I solved the problem.

# Show the current OTRS processes:
cat << EOF | sudo mysql otrs -vvv
SELECT process_name
, process_id
, process_host
, FROM_UNIXTIME(process_create) process_create
, FROM_UNIXTIME(process_change) process_change
FROM process_id
EOF


# There was one FetchMail process stuck for 24h :
+-------------------------------------+------------+--------------+---------------------+---------------------+
| process_name | process_id | process_host |
process_create | process_change |
+-------------------------------------+------------+--------------+---------------------+---------------------+
| Maint::PostMaster::MailAccountFetch | 14352 | santiago-01 |
2017-12-04 07:09:02 | 2017-12-04 07:09:02 |
+-------------------------------------+------------+--------------+---------------------+---------------------+

# I tried to kill it:
sudo kill 14352

# But it wouldn't die, so I insisted:
sudo kill -INT 14352

# And that solved the problem.

Hi Santiago,

the OTRS Daemon has its own log as its a detached process, please take a look at var/log/Daemon from your OTRS directory, you might get more information there.

((enjoy))
