Issue SELinux Blocked PHP mail() sent E-Mail

r1235613

New Pleskian
My WordPress show me a debug message "Could not instantiate mail function."
So I check /var/log/maillog and find follow message:
Code:
Oct 22 00:11:12 s010 postfix/postalias[6432]: fatal: open /etc/postfix/main.cf: Permission denied
Oct 22 00:11:13 s010 journal: plesk sendmail[6433]: handlers_stderr: PASS
Oct 22 00:11:13 s010 journal: plesk sendmail[6433]: PASS during call 'limit-out' handler
Oct 22 00:11:13 s010 journal: plesk sendmail[6433]: Unable to rename '/usr/local/psa/handlers/spool/message4U5A5S' file: Permission denied
Oct 22 00:11:13 s010 journal: plesk sendmail[6433]: System error (/usr/local/psa/handlers/spool/message4U5A5S): No such file or directory
Oct 22 00:11:13 s010 journal: plesk sendmail[6435]: Unable to open temporary file /usr/local/psa/handlers/spool/message4U5A5S (2): No such file or directory

I think it is SELinux problem.
It is Work after I turn off SELinux.

How to fix this problem without turn off SELinux?
I was try restorecon -R -v spool/ but it still not work.
 
Hi r1235613,

Unfortunately, it's invalid.
Could you pls. tell us, WHAT is "invalid" here? The command to RESTORE the SELinux context for a file is correct.

How did you install postfix on your server?
Which operating system do you use?
Which current Plesk version ( incl. #MU ) are you using?
 
Hi r1235613,

did you consider to have a look at the SELinux - log - files, in order to investigate the cause of the blocking?
