Thanks for the answer. |
| 32 |
But as I said it doesn't start (there's no process, command postfix status |
| 33 |
shows |
| 34 |
postfix/postfix-script: the Postfix mail system is not running |
| 35 |
but still /etc/init.d/postfix status show it's started)... |
| 36 |
|
| 37 |
Soooo it is stopped but the status of the service is wrongly updated (file |
| 38 |
/var/lib/init.d/started/postfix exists) |
