« HTML content follows » Hello all,I have switched my Linode from Ubuntu Natty, in which multiple things were just mysteriously breaking, to Arch Linux. I have copied my courier-mta configuration from the Ubuntu set-up in and made the adjustments that seemed obvious. There is one that is not obvious.I'm getting a permission denied error for courieresmtpd in /var/log/mail.log. There is no other information supplied. Here's a snippet:Jan 9 11:55:19 atlanta courieresmtpd: /usr/sbin/courieresmtpd: Permission denied
You just can't copy things from one system to another. As part of building Courier, the system's username and groupname used by the mail system gets incorporated, and becomes an integral part of the build. You cannot copy, verbatim, bits of Courier from one system to another that does not have the same username and groupnames, or whose numericals userids and groupids are different.
This could be any one of many things. It's going to be faster for you to reverse your manual installation process, and undo everything, then build Courier on your target system, and install it.
