Migrate server A to server B problem

[Gimly]

Hi ISPConfig team,

I have migrate server A to server B (Server B was installing with the perfect debian etch setup with ispconfig 2.2.16), but I have two problem :

1) My server can't receive e-mail, when I look /var/log/mail.log, I have this :

cronos:/var/log# tail -n20 /var/log/mail.log
Sep 11 17:15:34 cronos postfix/master[529]: warning: process /usr/lib/postfix/cleanup pid 858 exit status 1

2) I have problem for restart mysql :

cronos:/var/log# /etc/init.d/mysql restart
Stopping MySQL database server: mysqld failed!
Starting MySQL database server: mysqld already running.
/usr/bin/mysqladmin: connect to server at 'localhost' failed
error: 'Access denied for user 'debian-sys-maint'@'localhost' (using password: YES)'
cronos:/var/log#

I've search on google with no result ... If you are an answer about this ?

Thank you for your help :)

[Gimly]

No answers ? :(

[till]

What exactly did you move to the new server? It looks as if you have overridden the mysql system tables and the /var/log directory.

[Gimly]

I have move all my folder and database server A to B, I used this script Total Desaster Recovery (http://www.howtoforge.com/forums/showthread.php?t=10039)

[falko]

I think it's better to do it this way: http://www.howtoforge.com/forums/showthread.php?t=2717&highlight=moving+ispconfig

[Gimly]

I reinstall postfix and move my backup of server A to B with your directive in the other post and now I have this error :

I've search on postfix website, but no answer ... :(
I think, i will send e-mail on mailing list support postfix.
Or if you have an other idea ... thank you :)

What's in your /etc/postfix/main.cf?

[Gimly]

There are :

cronos:/home/romain# cat /etc/postfix/main.cf

# line of that file to be used as the name. The Debian default
# is /etc/mailname.

smtpd_banner = $myhostname ESMTP $mail_name (Debian/GNU)
biff = no

append_dot_mydomain = no

Thank you :)

Looks good.

It seems to be some permission problem. Have you tried to reboot the system?

[Gimly]

No, :o

Ok reboot it and I test. :o :o

[Gimly]

The problem persist ... I think I send e-mail to postfix support.

[Gimly]

Hi all,

I think the problem become to MX records, because when I test with this website : http://www.mxtoolbox.com/ with the domain www.espace4you.org, the website doesn't found the mx record.

This is my configuration for the domain :

http://img256.imageshack.us/img256/1977/mxpa1.th.jpg (http://img256.imageshack.us/my.php?image=mxpa1.jpg)

Can you correct me about it if it's false ?

Thank you for your help :)

Looks ok.

After more and more research on google, I've found the solution :

chmod -R 755 /var/spool/postfix

then this command, for php can send e-mail

chmod 1733 /var/spool/postfix/maildrop

and it work very fine :D

But if anyone have a solution for this problem :

cronos:/var/log# invoke-rc.d mysql restart
Stopping MySQL database server: mysqld failed!
Starting MySQL database server: mysqld already running.
/usr/bin/mysqladmin: connect to server at 'localhost' failed
error: 'Access denied for user 'debian-sys-maint'@'localhost' (using password: YES)'


Thank you :)

Thank you :)

Check your mysql db - for debian maint with no rights - delete it

[Gimly]

Ok thank you :)

[tester321]

Thank you. This tip and some additional googling (http://www.widwad.com/content/solved-postfix-stopped-routing-email-after-migrating-from-one-server-to-another-how-i-did-it?piwik_campaign=howtoforge&piwik_kwd=migrate,server,A,to,server,B) helped me figure it out.

FWIW, the key error I was getting in /var/log/mail.err was:
