Summary: exiwhat hangs up if there is no default config file
Product: Exim
Version: 4.66
Platform: All
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: bug
Priority: medium
Component: Unfiled
AssignedTo: ph10@???
ReportedBy: cronfy@???
QAContact: exim-dev@???
When there is no default config file exiwhat hangs up. This happens because
exiwhat tries to parse config file to find spool_directory with grep. The
problem is in this string:
exim_path=`grep "^[$st]*exim_path" $config | sed "s/.*=[$st]*//"`
When exiwhat cannot find config it continues to run grep with empty $config
argument. grep starts to read from stdin - and is waiting until Ctrl-C.
This could be resolved with adding check after while that searches for config
file:
[ -z "$config" ] && { echo Config file not found. ; exit 1 ; }
It also would be nice if exiwhat could receive path to config file via first
argument.
