Hi!
After yesterday's update:
postfix.x86_64 2:3.4.7-1.el7 cwp
Postfix fails to start here:
/bin/systemctl start postfix.service
Job for postfix.service failed because the control process exited with error code. See "systemctl status postfix.service" and "journalctl -xe" for details.
systemctl status postfix.service returns the following two errors:
Unable to create missing queue directories
Postfix integrity check failed!
After a rollback of the last yum update, it works again. Rollback via:
yum history
then check what the newest ID is, and then
yum history undo <ID>
This returned to postfix-2.10.1-7.el7.x86_64, which is quite a big version jump.
I guess that Postfix 3.4.7 requires a different configuration than Postfix-2.10.1.
Any ideas how to find out what's going wrong? The logs don't tell me what queue directories couldn't be created.
Here are the changes I made to the default postfix configuration to use procmail to filter and deliver mails:
yum install procmail
chmod g+s /usr/bin/procmail
nano /etc/postfix/main.cf
Change virtual_transport = dovecot to:
virtual_transport = virtualprocmail:dummy
virtualprocmail_destination_recipient_limit = 1
nano /etc/postfix/master.cf
#
