Hi All, I am going through the installation of postfix as per the following how-to: http://howtoforge.com/virtual_users_and_domains_with_postfix_debian_etch The install seems to have been going fine up until I got to step9 to install amavisd-new, SpamAssassin, And ClamAV.... Below is the link to the page: http://howtoforge.com/virtual_users_and_domains_with_postfix_debian_etch_p4 After running the following command: Code: apt-get install amavisd-new spamassassin clamav clamav-daemon zoo unzip bzip2 unzoo libnet-ph-perl libnet-snpp-perl libnet-telnet-perl nomarch lzop pax I get the following errors for the above command: (Truncated) Code: Starting amavisd: [B]No listen sockets or ports specified (failed).[/B] invoke-rc.d: initscript amavis, action "start" [B]failed.[/B] [B]dpkg: error processing amavisd-new (--configure):[/B] subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1 Setting up unzoo (4.4-5) ... [B]Errors were encountered while processing:[/B] amavisd-new [B]E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)[/B] FYI, durring the install of the how-to I captured everything to a file. Going through the captured file I have noticed the following errors before the one reported above. Below are snippets of errors encountered during the install. Error below was generated after running command step2 Code: WARNING: /etc/aliases exists, but does not have a root alias.

Did you modify /etc/aliases as shown in chapter 8 on http://howtoforge.com/virtual_users_and_domains_with_postfix_debian_etch_p3 ?
Falko, yes I did apply the aliases as required... Below is what I did for the that step - I just changed below to my domain name... [...] postmaster: root root: [email protected] [...] Joe
Falko, per my last reply below, I was wondering if I need to install gcc. I notice the gcc related errors/warning messages as shown in my output. Also, I am wondering about the error msg referring to gpg. Would I need gpg installed? Joe
Install build-essential: apt-get install build-essential It contains everything you need to compile things from the sources. You can ignore these warnings.
Falko, I tried to do a re-install of the postfix and hit the same issue. As before, build-essential is installed... Again, I've hit this error message below Code: mx1:/etc/postfix# adduser clamav amavis Adding user `clamav' to group `amavis' ... Done. mx1:/etc/postfix# /etc/init.d/amavis restart Stopping amavisd:[B] (not running).[/B] Starting amavisd: [B]No listen sockets or ports specified (failed).[/B] mx1:/etc/postfix# I am not sure why I getting the above error - Any thoughtts/suggestions? Joe
I think there's a problem with your amavisd configuration. Please compare it to the one from the tutorial. Maybe you accidentally deleted parts of the configuration?
