Daily Mail Report stopped, timeouts reported

Post by gabaker »

We stopped receiving the Zimbra Daily Mail Report last week. 01-Nov was last report. No report on 02-Nov. Checking logs found an entry in the zimbra.log that showed the server tried to send the mail but it never completed. Showed a timeout on the connection 5 min later. I could find no other issues so I did a restart of all Zimbra processes with zmcontrol restart. Did not receive a report for 03-Nov. However DID receive a report for 04-Nov, and now no report for 05-Nov.

Logs show the connection for the mail delivery at the same time each day (23:30 which is the cron job time for creating the report) :

Code: Select all

zimbra@zimbra1 ~ $ crontab -l
[...snip...]
# Daily reports
#
30 23 * * * /opt/zimbra/libexec/zmdailyreport -m
but on the days that we get no Daily Report email delivered, I find "timeout after DATA" from the server address 5 minutes from the inital connection.

Code: Select all

Nov  5 23:35:23 zimbra1 postfix/smtpd[2238]: timeout after DATA (16411 bytes) from zimbra1.xyz.com[10.241.0.16]




There is no other indications of problems. I'm at a loss as to where to go from here and have not turned up anything on these forums or Google regarding the sudden stopping of these reports.

Anyone have any advice/direction of whet to check next??

TIA

It seems I’m also not receiving the reports anymore since 1 nov. I’ll check out my logs today and get back to you.

Sorry, my bad, had to do with a wrong admin email address.

Maybe when you give more information on your situation (what system is it running on? what is the output of zmcontrol -v) people will be able to help you. Good luck!

Running on CentOS 6. Been running Zimbra since 2011 and have never had this issue before.
It is a single server instance. It supports roughly 120 accounts including resources.
Once again, did not receive the Daily Mail Report last night.
Searched all archived logs and the only "timeout after DATA" in the zimbra.log files is from the time of the Daily mail report with the originating server being the server itself.
No other issues.

Code: Select all

and the log entry:

Ooops, my verion, 8.0.9 is no longer supported (even as I have paid maintenance). Looks like upgrading must be done. Uggh.
