fwconsole creating many emails through our Barracuda mail filter
-
I have created a support request with Sangoma as well but they always take a bit longer than one would expect.
I've been getting a notification on high output queue from our Barracuda mail filter saying the following:
Cron asterisk@freepbx /usr/local/sbin/fwconsole userman --syncall -q. This has a message of: /bin/sh: /usr/local/sbin/fwconsole: No such file or directory
I get the same message for:
Cron asterisk@freepbx /usr/local/sbin/fwconsole userman --syncall -q
&
Cron asterisk@freepbx /usr/local/sbin/fwconsole qxactreports --sync -q 2>&1 > /dev/null
I tried to disable/uninstall any commercial modules I know I am not using but got errors for Calendar, Class of Service, and SMS because some modules depend on it. That screenshot is attached. The only module I know for sure that I am using is Zulu as I am testing remote/laptop users with softphone
Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.

UPDATE:
I checked all modules and all are up to date. I also disabled all the commercial modules that I know I don't use and that didn't change anything.

what is the message that you are getting from the Barracuda?
-
What did you change? Because those cron jobs do not normally send anything.

I haven't changed anything other than applying updates through Update Manager
-
Whatever it is runs a cron every minute or every 5 depending on the error.

Yeah, that is normal but on the queue. What does it show as the error that is sending on an email?

For this one: Cron asterisk@freepbx /usr/local/sbin/fwconsole util cleanplaybackcache -q
I get: /bin/sh: /usr/local/sbin/fwconsole: No such file or directory

Sangoma's response was to turn off the cron jobs that were causing the issues.
That doesn't answer the question of why they are suddenly happening and what changed to make them happen.

I would check on the system you have and check what is sending emails instead.

51 * * * * /usr/local/sbin/fwconsole util cleanplaybackcache -q
so change this line to, that way it doesn't send an email.

Done. We'll see what happens in an hour

Or, put the symlink back as the bug report stated.

Well, editing the cron worked. I suppose I could put the symlink back but it isn't spitting emails to the queue anymore so...
