Master.cf parse error

New Pleskian
Hi

Operating environment:
OS Linux 2.6.32-279.5.1.el6.x86_64
Panel version 10.4.4 Update #52

Problem trying to Add a new domain

I get the error message:

Error: Failed domain creation: Unable to update domain data: mailmng failed: Fatal error: plesk::mail::postfix::postfixConfigurationError(unable to parse /etc/postfix/master.cf)

Any help appreciated

Regards
 
Try to run

# /usr/local/psa/admin/sbin/mchk --with-spam
 
Hi IgorG

Sorry for not getting back sooner

The results was:

==> Checking for: mailsrv_conf_init... fail

Cheers
 
A bit of further information:

The mchk.log file reports:

plesk::mail::postfix::postfixConfigurationError(/usr/sbin/postconf: fatal: close /etc/postfix/main.cf.tmp: Operation not permitted

Cheers
 
Hi

I've used the autoinstaller to switch to Qmail and back, and ran the mailchk rpogram again with the same results:

/usr/local/psa/admin/sbin/mchk --with-spam
==> Checking for: mailsrv_conf_init... fail
