BUG: "queue_run_max" option set for the second time

[zEitEr]

Hello,

Here is a grep result before update:

# grep queue /etc/exim.variables.conf
smtp_accept_queue_per_connection=10
deliver_queue_load_max=10.0
queue_only_load=11.5
queue_run_max=5

Then we run:

./build exim_conf

The command ends with an error:

BlockCracking is now enabled.
Restarting exim.
Shutting down exim:
Starting exim: 2015-01-21 22:06:58 Exim configuration error in line 19 of /etc/exim.variables.conf:
  "queue_run_max" option set for the second time

And here is a grep result after update:

# grep queue /etc/exim.variables.conf
deliver_queue_load_max=20.0
queue_only_load=21.5
queue_run_max = 50
smtp_accept_queue_per_connection=10
queue_run_max=5

As you see now we have two lines with queue_run_max=

We had to remove one line manually.

Please check the build script and correct it not to add the line the second time.

Do you have /etc/exim.variables.conf.custom file on the system having "queue_run_max = 50"? If yes, try removing the spaces before & after "=" character.

Thank you, Martynas.

Yes, the issue was in white spaces in a line with queue_run_max in /etc/exim.variables.conf.custom.
I've corrected the data and since that "./build exim_conf" went fine.
