Did you check queue disk free space and access rights? – pabouk – 2013-11-06T11:19:41.427
I deleted all messages in the queue and also ran qfixq script to fix the permision problem but I am still having the same problem. – asembereng – 2013-11-06T14:48:45.413
I would check the log files and possibly allow verbose/debugging output. --- Also the disk space can be occupied by something else than the queues. I suggest checking it with
– pabouk – 2013-11-06T14:53:31.827df
.When I did a df command it shows only 56% of the disk been used.
I used multilog with the following command below but when i checked the current log file it was empty
