Hi all,

i just installed  MailScanner-4.60.8-1.rpm.tar.gz on centos 5 with sendmail
8.13.8.

Whenever I send emails, I get bellow error.


Jun 21 15:33:01 mail MailScanner[3657]: New Batch: Scanning 1 messages, 767
bytes
Jun 21 15:33:02 mail MailScanner[3657]: Virus and Content Scanning: Starting
Jun 21 15:33:02 mail MailScanner[3657]: ERROR: Unable to create temporary
directory
Jun 21 15:33:02 mail MailScanner[3657]: Uninfected: Delivered 1 messages
Jun 21 15:33:03 mail sendmail[3694]: l5LA2wY5003682: to=<test at mail.csbsl.com>,
ctladdr=<root at mail.csbsl.com> (0/0), delay=00:00:05, xdelay=00:00:00,
mailer=local, pri=120305, dsn=2.0.0, stat=Sent



WHY IS THAT?

Then, I disabled Selinux as follows.

setenfoce 0

Then, Checked again and no such error was given. Worked properly.

I do not want to leave Selinux disable. So could you pls help me to solve
thsi issue ?
