Hello ^^)
After I've installed spamassassin I get a run failure
when doing 'systemctl status' I can see that my server is running
'degraded' as one service failed to start.
then I ask 'systemctl;' and see that it's
postfix.service loaded active exited Postfix Mail Transport Agent
● postfix@-.service loaded failed failed Postfix Mail Transport
Agent (instance -)
'postfix@-.service' that's the culprit.
I've hunted the problem till there :
Aug 28 15:08:36 discovery postmulti[30438]: /usr/sbin/postconf:
fatal: file /etc/postfix/master.cf: line 13: bad field count

Aug 28 15:08:37 discovery systemd[1]: system-postfix.slice: Consumed

here is the master.cf conf file :
--Big snip--
#
# Spam filtering using Spamassassin
#
spamassassin unix - n n - - pipe
user=spamd argv=/usr/bin/spamc -f -e /usr/bin/sendmail -oi -f
${sender} ${recipient}
When I look in there, line 13 is '-o content_filter=spamassassin'
but in fact that's the last line of master.vf that's at fault !
all was running well till spamassassin was added but
I don't see what is wrong, maybe I'm blind ? btw I need an advice
there...
Webmin is sending that message to me :
Error while checking current Postfix configuration. Please manually
fix Postfix configuration.
/usr/sbin/postconf: fatal: invalid type field "argv=/usr/bin/spamc" in
"user=spamd argv=/usr/bin/spamc -f -e /usr/sbin/sendmail -oi -f
${sender} ${recipient}"
postfix/postfix-script: fatal: cannot execute /usr/sbin/postconf!
Uh ? I can't call spamc like this ?
in fact that has nothing to do with the error ! too!
the error is there :
spamassassin unix - n n - - pipe
user=spamd argv=/usr/bin/spamc -f -e /usr/bin/sendmail -oi -f ${sender}
${recipient}
Î_ see ? there is NO space or tab before 'user' and just for this
postfix conf parser fail to validate it.
grrr how can I haven't seen this at first ?
BTW, I added a tab there and now the fault is gone.
I love postfix more and more as I put my hands in its engine! I prefer a
software that is verbose when it fail even in non-debug mode than some
others well-known paid ones the fail silently without saying a word and
let the user think all is working well.
and viva Linux too ^^)
Thanks.
