Mailq is filling with poller errors #62

Closed GillesMocellin closed 6 years ago

GillesMocellin commented 6 years ago

Hello,

I see a great amount of files in /var/spool/mqueue-client. They are error emails from crontab.

As you said in your documentation, sendmail is not working, we should use SMTP for alerting, so system emails can't reach out too.

The simplest is to add a /dev/null redirection to the poller cron line, th only one which does not have one: /5 * librenms . /etc/librenms_environment; /opt/librenms/cronic /opt/librenms/poller-wrapper.py PLACEHOLDER_POLLERS

PS: By the way, is sendmail, as a package, mandatory in your container ?

Thanks, I will fix those errors in the next build.

Sendmail is included in baseimage-librenms, but might not be strictly necessary.
