Besides adding new clients we have not changed any setting on our ispconfig server running on centos 3. We are getting reports that people are not receiving any email. They dont send through us so outgoing mail is fine. Does anyone know of any centos updates that could have caused the postfix/dovecot services to stop responding. According to ispconfig the services are running fine. I will continue to investigate but any help appreciated.
Any errors in the mail.log file. Please check with: df -h That you have enough space on your harddisk and check the user and website quotas.
should there be any problems if we are on centos 4? I am getting a whole lot of these in the maillog Nov 14 16:30:39 web01 postfix/master[3372]: warning: /usr/libexec/postfix/pickup: bad command startup -- throttling Nov 14 16:30:39 web01 postfix/master[3372]: warning: process /usr/libexec/postfix/qmgr pid 3785 exit status 1 Nov 14 16:30:39 web01 postfix/master[3372]: warning: /usr/libexec/postfix/qmgr: bad command startup -- throttling Nov 14 16:30:42 web01 postfix/smtpd[3792]: fatal: unsupported dictionary type: http Nov 14 16:30:43 web01 postfix/master[3372]: warning: process /usr/libexec/postfix/smtpd pid 3792 exit status 1 Nov 14 16:30:43 web01 postfix/master[3372]: warning: /usr/libexec/postfix/smtpd: bad command startup -- throttling
HI all, Ok found the probelm. Someone had created a domain with the name http://www This was made as an entry into /etc/postfix/local-domain-names which caused postfix to fail on start up. I edited the entry out of /etc/postfix/local-domain-names and all seems to be working now.
