Hallo,

habe mich an das HowTo von

http://www.workaround.org/articles/ispm ... #id2493380

gehalten, um mir Postfix zu installieren.

Dazu habe ich das skip-networking aktiviert und einen postfix user in der MySQL angelegt mit diesen Rechten:

In der Tabelle user:

Code: Select all

user: postfix
host: loclahost
permissions: none

In der Tabelle db:

Code: Select all

database: postfix
user: postfix
hosts: localhost
permissions: Select | Insert | Update | Delete | Create | Drop | References | Index | Alter

Dennoch steht in der /var/log/mail.log immer, dass der mysql nicht erreicht werden kann. Hier ein Auszug:

Code: Select all

Aug 19 14:27:50 m17s5 postfix/master[13400]: warning: /usr/lib/postfix/trivial-rewrite: bad command startup -- throttling

kann mir vielleicht jemand sagen warum? Ich verstehe es einfach nicht!

Danke, Mat

Wahrscheinlich wird es darin liegen, dass postfix im chroot läuft und deswegen keinen Zugriff auf das mysql socket hat.

hier mal eine Lösung:

First, you have to configure postfix to connect to mysql database which is installed via phpmywebhosting.

First of all an important note (thanks to Ulrich Hammer). Remember that Postfix runs in a chroot environment. Thus it would not be able to access MySQL's socket file at /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock. There are two ways to work around this:
Mario Duve (et al) propose an addition to the start section of /etc/init.d/postfix like this:

if [ -e /var/spool/postfix/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock ]; then
rm /var/spool/postfix/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock
fi

mkdir -p /var/spool/postfix/var/run/mysqld
chown mysql /var/spool/postfix/var/run/mysqld
ln /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock /var/spool/postfix/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock

In case of power failure postfix won't start working because the socket of mysql is not valid. To prevent this edit /etc/init.d/postfix and add the above lines in the start section under echo -n "Starting mail transport agent: Postfix". Result is:

case "$1" in
start)
echo -n "Starting mail transport agent: Postfix"
if [ -e /var/spool/postfix/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock ]; then
rm /var/spool/postfix/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock
fi
mkdir -p /var/spool/postfix/var/run/mysqld
chown mysql /var/spool/postfix/var/run/mysqld
ln /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock /var/spool/postfix/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock

# see if anything is running chrooted.
[...]

Also take care, that postfix is started after mysql. Check it with the following command:

bash #> ls /etc/rc$(grep initdefault /etc/inittab | cut -d: -f2).d/ | grep -E "(postfix|mysql)"
S20mysql
S20postfix
bash #>

If it is like above, everything is alright. If not, delete the links in /etc/rc{runlevel}.d/ and create them new.

Gruss

Marc
