I like the new stuff in CentOS 7 which I do not need to install like php 5.4 mariadb etc. I have not redirected the domain to this server until it is set up. I guess that from these logs that amavisd and clamd behave differently in CentOS 7. Cheers korbynn
The general problem with systemd is that you dont get useful error messages anymore, so its not easy to debug whats wrong when a service fails. there are no general issues with the setup on centos 7 as it is used already on many servers. Maybe its a problem with the hstname as amavis refuses to start when it does not get a fqdn hostname.
Just to follow up on this thread. On reboot my vps server is unreachable. I have to leave firewalld enabled but I have to stop it on a reboot/start up. i have ssh on 31337. having ssh on port 22 results in a lot of breakin attempts. then I have to service firewalld stop to open the ports. For some reason amavisd is running but the config is not correct. I kill -9 x3 amavisd processes, then amavisd -c /etc/amavisd/amavisd.conf this then gets the mail moving. now I have mailman issue which I will start another thread.
Thank you for your best guess till! I edited nano /etc/hosts and used the syntax suggested instead of the one you describe in the tutorial. That was exactly the reason why amavisd didn't start. Thanks!
