Public bug reported: Binary package hint: postfix
Doing an upgrade from feisty to gusty, postfix gets upgraded from the 2.3.x series to the 2.4.x series. As per the release notes here: ftp://ftp.reverse.net/pub/postfix/official/postfix-2.4.6.RELEASE_NOTES There is a "Major changes - critical" feature added to the 2.4.0 release as follows: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ [Incompat 20061209] The upgrade procedure adds a new "retry" service to the master.cf file. If you make the mistake of copying old Postfix configuration files over the new files, the queue manager may log warnings with: warning: connect to transport retry: Connection refused To fix your master.cf file, use "postfix upgrade-configuration" followed by "postfix reload". ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ I discovered after my gutsy upgrade that this feature was *not* added to my master.cf. I don't believe the install procedure gave any warning of this, so it was purely chance that I noticed it in the release notes. Running 'postfix upgrade-configuration' manually did in fact modify my master.cf without causing any problems for my existing config. The upgrade procedure should probably call this function at post-install, or at very minimum, warn the user to run it. ** Affects: postfix (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- postfix upgrade does not add 'retry' service https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/172925 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
