The Perfect Server - Ubuntu 12.10 Postfix setup error

Hi

I'm busy setting up the "The Perfect Server - Ubuntu 12.10 (Apache2, BIND, Dovecot, ISPConfig 3)" and have just run step 12 (Install Postfix, Dovecot, MySQL, phpMyAdmin, rkhunter, binutils) and was not prompted to for:

Quote:

General type of mail configuration: <-- Internet Site
System mail name: <-- server1.example.com

I've rechecked all the previous steps and nothing has been missed.

Regards
Brenton

Just go on. since these are the default settings, they are probably already set in /etc/postfix/main.cf.

Hi falko

Thank you for coming back and sorry for slow reply.

There is no /etc/postfix/main.cf created during step 12. I've reset the server 3 times and started over, and each time I get the same result.

I had to run "dpkg-reconfigure postfix" to set main.cf with default values.

Are you sure Postfix got installed?

Hi Falko

100% sure as I was able to run "dpkg-reconfigure postfix" and finish the process that way.

You didn't notice any error messages when you first installed Postfix?
