FW: [rt-users] rt-mailgate

[Cassily, Ryan]

I changed the config file to read the following yet the rt.log is still o bytes.
-rw-rw-rw-    1 root     rt              0 Jun  4 16:24 rt.log

#  Mail loops will generate a critical log message.
Set($LogToSyslog    , undef);
Set($LogToScreen    , undef);
Set($LogToFile      , 'debug');
Set($LogToFileNamed , "$LogDir/rt.log");    #log to rt.log.<pid>.<user>

The only thing being recorded is the maillog.  Could there be a permission issue?  What should the permissions look like on the rt3 directory?  Mine is currently:

drwxr-xr-x    2 root     rt           4096 Jun  3 10:57 bin
drwxr-xr-x    2 root     rt           4096 Jun  4 17:17 etc
drwxr-xr-x    4 root     bin          4096 May 30 07:39 lib
drwxr-xr-x    4 root     nobody       4096 May 30 07:39 local
drwxr-xr-x    2 root     rt           4096 May 30 07:39 sbin
drwxr-xr-x    3 root     root         4096 May 30 07:39 share
drwxr-xr-x    5 root     rt           4096 May 30 07:39 var

In RT_SiteConfig.pm you need to have something like:

Set($LogToSyslog    , undef);
Set($LogToFile      , 'debug');

the default is the opposite:

Set($LogToSyslog    , 'debug');
Set($LogToFile      , undef);

so the log output is sent to to syslog.

You also must ensure that rt-mailgate (i.e you, when you run it)
have write access to the configured directory.

No, it isn't.
