Package: postfix
Version: 2.11.1-1
Followup-For: Bug #627570
Dear Maintainer,
I suspect some problem with the /etc/init.d/postfix skript.
* What led up to the situation?
"aptitude safe-upgrade" upgrading postfix to 2.11.1-1.
* What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
ineffective)?
"aptitude safe-upgrade"
* What was the outcome of this action?
relevant output from mentioned "aptitude safe-upgrade":
---8<---
Stopping Postfix Mail Transport Agent: postfix.
Starting Postfix Mail Transport Agent: postfixpostfix/postfix-script: fatal:
the Postfix mail system is already running
failed!
invoke-rc.d: initscript postfix, action "restart" failed.
dpkg: error processing package postfix (--configure):
subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1
--->8---
* What outcome did you expect instead?
Postfix shutting down and restarting cleanly.
Running "dpkg --configure -a" results in the same output.
When I do "service postfix stop", the following processes keep running:
/usr/lib/postfix/master
pickup -l -t fifo -u -c
qmgr -l -t fifo -u
I'd expect them to die.
When I do "pkill -f /usr/lib/postfix/master", they all die within seconds,
and I can then do "dpkg --configure -a" without further errors.
Same thing on a different machine, so it's not a single occurence.
