Can you check your config.log and compare to your which for sendmail, sounds like they might not match up.

Hi Ryan
Post by Ryan WestTraiano,
The software is attempting to send you the diffs, but it seems you've removed sendmail.
That was also my first suspicion, but I've checked that I can still use
sendmail on my server ( "| sendmail -t" as is used in the control_rancid
script). Also, I snipped a bit out of control_rancid that actually sends
the diff and tested that it sends mail, for example, this bit works if
put into a shell script:
---
#!/bin/sh
( echo "To: ***@tenet.ac.za"
echo "Subject: no /usr/lib/rancid/router.db file"
echo "Precedence: bulk"
echo ""
echo "router.db does not exist."
) | sendmail -t
---
These are the details of sendmail on my box (it's actually a wrapper
around exim4, but it's always been that way):
---
***@cyclops:~/analysis/ranci# which sendmail
/usr/sbin/sendmail
***@cyclops:~/analysis/ranci# file `which sendmail`
/usr/sbin/sendmail: symbolic link to `exim4'
---
Hmmm, I'm at a loss.

Post by Ryan WestIt might be easiest to just go back into the rancid source directory, check your config.log and see how you ran the configure script and re-run it. Then 'make install' and it should use whatever new program you're using now.

Hi List
I've been getting the following log messages in my rancid logs recently,
---
/usr/lib/rancid/bin/control_rancid: 397: sendmail: not found
---
What might the cause of these messages be? As far as I can tell, it
looks like control_rancid is not finding any diffs to mail when called,
even though running "cvs log <filename>" shows the most recent committed
changes correctly.
Thanks,
Traiano
