Hello,

I have a 7.1 installation made in March... I made an update of the
ports/ then I deinstalled spamass-milter and sa-spamd (March version)
and reinstalled the 2 ports... Every thing whent fine... but when I
tried to restart the two apps, I got several lines of incoherent
stuff... and no restart... I had to kill the process from the pid not
with the script in /rc.d/

I uninstalled the 2 ports again... but now sendmail seems affected: I
get the same lines of weerd stuff and no restart or stop possible from
sendmail. I'ts a live server and I dont want to kill the process since
I think it wont get back up!

I guess I need to reinstall sendmail... ? But since it's not made from
the /ports/ dont know if it's easy or possible to re install sendmail
with the same default FreeBSD settings.

Or, if someone knows what I did wrong to get these lines (when I try
to stop or restart sendmail):

server1:/etc/mail># make restart
Restarting:.less-history-file:: not found
..search: not found
686
default: not found
dev
netif: not found
if
-interface: not found
-interfqce
-interface: not found
point
ptp: not found
-ifqce
-iface: not found
-interface
lex=: not found
LEX=
spaa: not found
recur
menile: not found
conf
ENABLED: not found
..shell: not found
sendmail sendmail-clientmqueue.

Thanks for any ideas...

PS the var/log/message and maillog dont show anything when making a
restart...

Looks like you pasted something into /etc/mail/Makefile.

That doesn't look like normal /usr/bin/make output. What does

which make

show in your root shell?

Then maybe /etc/mail/Makefile.local or /etc/rc.sendmail ?
