Hello
Could you provide more details about the exact steps you took, and paste a list of the current Exim processes that are running?
Thank you.

Hello
Could you provide more details about the exact steps you took, and paste a list of the current Exim processes that are running?
Thank you.
exim-26 up
exim-587 up
I added exim on 26 then switched it to 587 and now 26 still remains running. I want to remove it.
Re: I changed our second email port to a new port and the old exim installa
How did you add exim on 26? In WHM > Service Manager or somewhere else?
You should probably restart exim itself to see what happens. If that doesn't work, check the following locations for exim-26:
/var/run/chkservd/exim-26
/etc/chkserv.d/exim-26
Remove or move those files. Additionally, check /etc/chkserv.d/chkservd.conf file and remove any line such as:
At that point, restart chkservd:Code:exim-26:1
Code:/scripts/restartsrv_chkservd

Re: I changed our second email port to a new port and the old exim installa
Yes all three where through cpanel, first was on install, 26 I added with service manager, the third was 26 switch to 587 on service manager.
/var/run/chkservd/exim-26
/etc/chkserv.d/exim-26
These both gave file not there errors
There is no 26 on this file:
/etc/chkserv.d/chkservd.conf
The server status still shows 26 up and running even after restarting exim.
Re: I changed our second email port to a new port and the old exim installa
Could you check in /etc/exim.conf to see if 26 is listed?
Code:grep 26 /etc/exim.conf

nothing showed up, thanks for the help btw
Re: I changed our second email port to a new port and the old exim installa
If nothing showed up, then exim itself is not binding on port 26. Please try this now:
Code:lsof -i :26 netstat -an | grep :26

Nothing on both, I'm guessing it's a cpanel service monitor error and 26 really isn't there?
Re: I changed our second email port to a new port and the old exim installa
Where are you even seeing the 3 ports running? You have not provided the actual area you are seeing them as listed in WHM or root SSH by what command or section. Given all that we've gone through to check, it definitely doesn't appear that exim-26 is running at all on the machine.

Re: I changed our second email port to a new port and the old exim installa
I agree it shows in the "server status" section in the WHM.
Re: I changed our second email port to a new port and the old exim installa
That area is populated by these files:
/var/run/chkservd/exim-26
/var/run/chkservd/restart_track/exim-26
Please ensure again that any such files have been either removed or moved.

Re: I changed our second email port to a new port and the old exim installa
I ran both of these and got a permission error
root@dwhs69 [~]# /var/run/chkservd/exim-26
-bash: /var/run/chkservd/exim-26: Permission denied
root@dwhs55 [~]# /var/run/chkservd/restart_track/exim-26
-bash: /var/run/chkservd/restart_track/exim-26: Permission denied
root@dwhs69 [~]#
Re: I changed our second email port to a new port and the old exim installa
These aren't ones to run as they aren't executable files. That doesn't mean they don't exist. Move the files if they exist:
Code:mv /var/run/chkservd/exim-26 /root/exim-26.bak mv /var/run/chkservd/restart_track/exim-26 /root/exim-26.bak2
