[ReD-GuY-ReD-HaT]

I have a trouble installing and running Qmail. I intalled qmail and when i tried restarting it, i get a Qmail Error : Fedora supervise not running. Starting qmail by this command :

qmailctl start

I get the following error :

Starting qmail...
qmail-send supervise not running
qmail-smtpd supervise not running
qmail-pop3d supervise not running

Please help friends i don't know what is wrong...

Try to reboot the computer and start qmail, what do you get? If you get the same thing upon reboot too, try to stop qmail and then start it. May be this would solve the problem Also check if there are any updates available. But first check if the qmail package you have installed is for your OS and you have not converted between other distribution package to yours...

I too had a doubt that qmail might be running in the background and to stop it before i could start it again. When i try to stop qmail i get this error :
Command used to stop : qmailctl stop
Error :

Stopping qmail...
qmail-smtpd

I tried to reboot the computer and try it again, but still the same errors. Please help guys...

I would recommend you to uninstall qmail. Now after the uninstall is complete, download qmail source for your OS and compile it so that it would tell you which other dependency packages are needed and that might be missing... Try it out and if that doesn't help too, then post back...
