QPopper will not start

If QPopper does not start any more, this can have several causes:

Test as follows:

Edit file qpopper.conf in the directory / etc. and remove the # (with the following blank)

old:

# set debug = true

new:

set debug = true

Store the file and enter the following command:

popper -f /etc/qpopper.conf

Should you possibly receive the mistake

File size limit exceeded

Then you check sometimes the size of the log file. You find the log file normaly under

/var/log

with the name qpopper.log

If you are not to be found there, look once more in the above Config file where the log are stored and otherwise change in the main directory and search as follows after this file:

cd /
find -name qpopper.log

Check the size of this file. Is this file extremely too big, rename this simply, with:

mv qpopper.log qpopper.old

Repeat the command:

popper -f /etc/qpopper.conf

is the error message away? Reboot you your server and qpopper should function again!
