dovecot conf-custom in wrong location of main config?

I get this when I check the docevot config:

Code:

# doveconf 1>/dev/null
doveconf: Warning: /etc/dovecot/conf.d/99-ispconfig-custom-config.conf line 15: Global setting postmaster_address won't change the setting inside an earlier filter at /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf line 79 (if this is intentional, avoid this warning by moving the global setting before /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf line 79)

Seems to me the custom conf settings do not overrule because the include that ispconfig has put in /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf is at the bottom, but I'm not sure what is said here. And yes, this is *after* having reconfigured services using ispconfig update.

 

Yes, putting it higher up fixes this error. Here's my dovecot.conf that does not yield the error, and uses my custom config as it should:

Code:

# cat /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf
# Do not change this file, as changes will be overwritten by any ISPConfig update.
# Put your custom settings in /usr/local/ispconfig/server/conf-custom/install/dovecot_custom.conf.master.
# To start using those changes, do a force upgrade and let it reconfigure your services. (ispconfig_update.sh --force)

Eeh, please explain. I already *have* a custom config file at:
/usr/local/ispconfig/server/conf-custom/install/dovecot_custom.conf.master
when I run an ispconfig update --force, this file gets put as
/etc/dovecot/conf.d/99-ispconfig-custom-config.conf
correct?
Then dovecot calls this config from the line
!include_try conf.d/99-ispconfig-custom-config.conf
in /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf

So how do I make that dovecot.conf file update safe?

 

You mean /usr/local/ispconfig/server/conf-custom/ (without /install/ ) ? Because it does not work..

 

No, "/usr/local/ispconfig/server/conf-custom/install" is the correct path and working just fine here. Can you show your dovecot_custom.conf.master?

 

This has nothing to do with custom config, it's /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf that has the problem mentioned in https://forum.howtoforge.com/thread...ng-location-of-main-config.92670/#post-458727 When I want the source of that file to change, I need the correct template file, which in my case, as far as I can see, is tpl/debian_dovecot2.conf.master When I put this under the /install dir, nothing happens with /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf
