SMTP not responding properly
Hello,
I am running iMS 5.1 with bundled directory services 4.1 on a win2k.
yesterday there was a power failure and the server went for an abnormal reboot. Since then my iMS is not responding properly.
I am able to connect to port 25 but then after that theer is no respose from the server, it just hangs at that.
Even when I try to dirsync -F it will just not complete and will stay there.
What do I do now?
Pls help I am in a dire situation.
Regards,
Sanvir Jham

Some information to add.
when I do imsimta recover-crash, it responds with database Ok, then I try to do imsimta dirsync -F -v it just keeps hanging there. I have stopped all my services.
Do I need to do imsimta cnbuild and imsimta cleandb too?
Pls help
Regards,
Sanvir
Don't know for windows.. but
You may want to check your <server-root>/log/imta/dirsync* log files for something like "can't get the lock"
If you find this, there is some dirsync.lock and dirsync.lck files in <server-root>/imta/config/ and <server-root>/imta/tmp/
It works when I delete those files.

Thanks for the hint.
I finally managed to remove the dirsync.lock. __db_lock.share and __db_mpool.share from <server-root>/imta/tmp/ after making the iplanet services manual and then restarting the win2k server.
After removing these lock files, I again switched my iplanet services to automatic and restarted the machine.
Now the server sings :)
Thanks for replying,
