Hello

It seems that send mail is corrupted

I get this error when i log as root ans use mail command
/usr/sbin/sendmail: Exec format error

Sendmail is an empty file, seems strange

How to force reinstall?

Thanks

Hello,

Please post the output from the following commands:

Code:
cat /usr/local/cpanel/version
ls -al /usr/sbin/sendmail
lsattr /usr/sbin/sendmail
Thank you.

Command isn't good

# cat /usr/local/cpanel/version ls -al /usr/sbin/sendmail lsattr /usr/sbin/sendmail
cat: invalid option -- 'a'
Try 'cat --help' for more information.

I think Michael intended you to run those three lines as three separate commands :)

Try
Code:
cat /usr/local/cpanel/version
and then
Code:
ls -al /usr/sbin/sendmail
and then
Code:
lsattr /usr/sbin/sendmail
and paste the output of each command into your answer here.

Yes of course my mistake ! I am on mobile

11.62.0.22

root root 20 May 10 10:58

/usr/sbin/sendmail -> /usr/local/sbin/exim

(Symlink seems not right?)

# lsattr /usr/sbin/sendmail
lsattr: Operation not supported While reading flags on /usr/sbin/sendmail

Thank you

Hello,

That's not a standard configuration. You can remove the symbolic link and then run the following command to correct this:

Code:
/scripts/check_cpanel_rpms
Thank you.

I discover it's the manual installation of Xdebug that cause this issue.

may be phpize ?
Hello,

Could you rephrase this question? For instance, what steps or commands are you using to install the software?

Thank you.

We use this wizard :
xdebug.org/wizard.php

after following the installation steps, exim symlinks seems corrupted, we need to fix it with the cpanel script

Hello,

If the installation of that third-party application is overwriting the sendmail binary, then you'd need to report this to the developer of the script to determine if any workarounds are available to allow for the installation without making that modification.

Thank you.
