Failed to start Amavisd-new is an interface between MTA and content checkers..

Dear developers or till, (please help

On my newly installed ISPConfig 3.1 on Centos 7.1 with latest build, it has been working great fore weeks then yesterday I added/improved the Postfix cipher suites in main.cf file for security vulnerability and now I cannot start Amavisd and no email arriving due to this. I had a previous main.cf file called main.cf~3 so I copied back some old codes without luck. Then for some strange reason emails were working then it failed. In Roundcube, when I send a test, I am also getting error SMTP error (250) > Authentication failed.

Please see below log errors if that helps. Am I missing some code in the main.cf or something more worse.

When I use run amavisd -u amavis debug, I receive this

This is also in the logs

Check for the path for dkim-keys in amavis and create the dir if it's missing. Maybe just mkdir -p /var/lib/amavis/dkim and set the permissions for the amavis-user (chmod amavis.amavis /var/lib/amavis/dkim)

 

Thank you Florian, I will try this tomorrow morning and let you know.

 

@florian030 update. Not sure why, but the amavisd service was started? Did not run any command you suggested yet. Although I did see another log error postfix/smtpd[59617]: error: open database /var/lib/mailman/data/virtual-mailman.db: No such file or directory

So I looked around on Forums for this and run command touch /etc/mailman/virtual-mailman and postmap. Emails are receiving now and amavisd service is started. Not sure if this was the case but unfortunate not sure if it was started before I did this or after?
