Hey guys, My postfix cannot get any external mail (such as Gmail) and I have this specific error on the mail log. Nov 11 21:23:18 mail master[15606]: fatal: master_spawn: exec /usr/libexec/postfix/-o: No such file or directory Nov 11 21:23:19 mail postfix/master[2949]: warning: process /usr/libexec/postfix/-o pid 15606 exit status 1 Nov 11 21:23:19 mail postfix/master[2949]: warning: /usr/libexec/postfix/-o: bad command startup -- throttling Is there anyone can help me? Regards,
You seem to run postfix as mail server? How have you set it up? What operating system? Is the errormessage exact? Looks like the command name is missing.
yes, I run postfix as a mail server on CentOS Linux release 7.5.1804 (Core). The server implemented with postfix+dovecot+amavisd postfix configuration: Code: [root@mail ~]# postconf -n alias_database = hash:/etc/aliases alias_maps = hash:/etc/aliases body_checks = regexp:/etc/postfix/body_checks broken_sasl_auth_clients = yes command_directory = /usr/sbin config_directory = /etc/postfix content_filter = amavis:[127.0.0.1]:10024 daemon_directory = /usr/libexec/postfix data_directory = /var/lib/postfix debug_peer_level = 2 debugger_command = PATH=/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin ddd $daemon_directory/$process_name $process_id & sleep 5 dovecot_destination_recipient_limit = 1 greylisting = check_policy_service inet:127.0.0.1:10023 header_checks = regexp:/etc/postfix/header_checks home_mailbox = maildir/ html_directory = no inet_interfaces = all inet_protocols = all mail_owner = postfix maildrop_destination_concurrency_limit = 1 maildrop_destination_recipient_limit = 1 mailq_path = /usr/bin/mailq.postfix manpage_directory = /usr/share/man milter_default_action = accept mime_header_checks = regexp:/etc/postfix/mime_header_checks mydestination = $myhostname, localhost.$mydomain, localhost mydomain = mydomain.com myhostname = mail.mydomain.com mynetworks = 127.0.0.0/8 myorigin = $mydomain nested_header_checks = regexp:/etc/postfix/nested_header_checks newaliases_path = /usr/bin/newaliases.postfix non_smtpd_milters = $smtpd_milters proxy_read_maps = $local_recipient_maps $mydestination $virtual_alias_maps $virtual_alias_domains $sender_bcc_maps $virtual_mailbox_maps $virtual_mailbox_domains $relay_recipient_maps $relay_domains $canonical_maps $sender_canonical_maps $recipient_canonical_maps $relocated_maps $transport_maps $mynetworks $smtpd_sender_login_maps queue_directory = /var/spool/postfix readme_directory = /usr/share/doc/postfix-2.10.1/README_FILES receive_override_options = no_address_mappings relay_domains = mysql:/etc/postfix/mysql-virtual_relaydomains.cf relay_recipient_maps = mysql:/etc/postfix/mysql-virtual_relayrecipientmaps.cf sample_directory = /usr/share/doc/postfix-2.10.1/samples sender_bcc_maps = proxy:mysql:/etc/postfix/mysql-virtual_outgoing_bcc.cf sendmail_path = /usr/sbin/sendmail.postfix setgid_group = postdrop smtp_tls_exclude_ciphers = RC4, aNULL smtp_tls_note_starttls_offer = yes smtp_tls_protocols = !SSLv2,!SSLv3 smtp_tls_security_level = may smtpd_client_message_rate_limit = 100 smtpd_client_restrictions = check_client_access mysql:/etc/postfix/mysql-virtual_client.cf smtpd_helo_required = yes smtpd_helo_restrictions = permit_sasl_authenticated, permit_mynetworks, check_helo_access regexp:/etc/postfix/helo_access, reject_invalid_hostname, reject_non_fqdn_hostname, reject_invalid_helo_hostname, reject_unknown_helo_hostname, check_helo_access regexp:/etc/postfix/blacklist_helo smtpd_milters = inet:127.0.0.1:8891 smtpd_recipient_restrictions = permit_sasl_authenticated,permit_mynetworks,reject_unauth_destination smtpd_restriction_classes = greylisting smtpd_sasl_auth_enable = yes smtpd_sasl_authenticated_header = yes smtpd_sasl_local_domain = smtpd_sasl_path = private/auth smtpd_sasl_security_options = noanonymous smtpd_sasl_type = dovecot smtpd_sender_login_maps = proxy:mysql:/etc/postfix/mysql-virtual_sender_login_maps.cf smtpd_sender_restrictions = check_sender_access regexp:/etc/postfix/tag_as_originating.re , permit_mynetworks, permit_sasl_authenticated, check_sender_access mysql:/etc/postfix/mysql-virtual_sender.cf, check_sender_access regexp:/etc/postfix/tag_as_foreign.re smtpd_tls_cert_file = /etc/postfix/ssl/mailkey.crt smtpd_tls_exclude_ciphers = RC4, aNULL smtpd_tls_key_file = /etc/postfix/ssl/mail.key smtpd_tls_loglevel = 1 smtpd_tls_mandatory_protocols = !SSLv2, !SSLv3 smtpd_tls_protocols = !SSLv2,!SSLv3 smtpd_tls_received_header = yes smtpd_tls_security_level = may smtpd_tls_session_cache_timeout = 3600s smtpd_use_tls = yes tls_random_source = dev:/dev/urandom transport_maps = hash:/var/lib/mailman/data/transport-mailman, proxy:mysql:/etc/postfix/mysql-virtual_transports.cf unknown_local_recipient_reject_code = 550 virtual_alias_domains = virtual_alias_maps = hash:/etc/mailman/virtual-mailman, proxy:mysql:/etc/postfix/mysql-virtual_forwardings.cf, proxy:mysql:/etc/postfix/mysql-virtual_email2email.cf virtual_gid_maps = mysql:/etc/postfix/mysql-virtual_gids.cf virtual_mailbox_base = /var/vmail virtual_mailbox_domains = proxy:mysql:/etc/postfix/mysql-virtual_domains.cf virtual_mailbox_maps = proxy:mysql:/etc/postfix/mysql-virtual_mailboxes.cf virtual_transport = dovecot virtual_uid_maps = mysql:/etc/postfix/mysql-virtual_uids.cf

Does the error go away if you tix this indentation? Code: -o smtp_send_xforward_command=yes -o milter_default_action=accept -o milter_macro_daemon_name=ORIGINATING
I comment out these lines and restart postfix, but the problem still exists.

Does you host have that problem directory? Code: ls -lh /usr/libexec/postfix ls -lhd /usr/libexec/postfix The error message looks like postfix startup tries to execute command Code: usr/libexec/postfix/-o That looks like a typo, creating files that start with dash character is a bad idea, and file named -o is doubly so. Have you modified postfix startup files? Check for typos. How did this problem appear? Is host just installed? Did postfix work for ages and now suddenly stopped? What was done between working and not workin states?
