Hello, I am running an Ubuntu 20.04 server installed following the perfect server guide. For more than a month it is working fine. Yesterday I rebooted the server after updating it and updating ISPConfig to its latest version, then a few hours later I noticed something wasn’t working as Postfix wasn’t running. I didn’t find any error for Postfix, only restarting it made it work, I had this problem in the past with a previous setup that was fixed by reinstalling everything but it seems this problem is back. But while doing systemctl to check if there was other services not running, I had 2 errors: And also netfilter-persistent was in failed status and it’s log shows these errors: How can I solve these 2 problems? Is there anything that could explain the Postfix failure when the system reboots but which then works perfectly when manually restarting it ? I did some research I found the same advice of adding -w or -n for netfilter-persistent but I’d like to be sure I won’t break anything that was configured by ISPconfig and to be sure where I should add it. Thanks
Start with this and post the report in CODE tags. https://www.howtoforge.com/community/threads/please-read-before-posting.58408/ Try finding more info with Code: systemctl status [email protected] Code: man [email protected] You wrote you updated, I guess updated the Ubuntu OS? Read the log to see what happened during upgrade, pay attention to warnings and strange goings on. The log is in /var/log/dpkg.log or /var/log/dpkg.log.1. Did you during ISPConfig update allow it to reconfigure services? Was there any error or warning during update?
Hi, Thanks for the help. For the update, I ran apt-get upgrade and for ISPConfig I did reconfigure the services and there was no errors all went fine. For the [email protected], it reported the error: Code: Failed to create /user.slice/user-1000.slice/[email protected]/init.scope control group: Permission denied I found a fix by reconfiguring the permissions, I rebooted the system and this error is gone. The one with netfilter-persistent is still the same and postfix is still not working after a reboot, right after a reboot it says: Code: postfix.service loaded active exited Postfix Mail Transport Agent ● [email protected] loaded failed failed Postfix Mail Transport Agent (instance -) I don't see errors in the postfix logs. The report: (the ISPConfig port error is because it is configured to use a different port) Code: ##### SERVER ##### IP-address (as per hostname): ***.***.***.*** [WARN] could not determine server's ip

Hi, Since, I tried a couple of things but I noticed the user manager error came back again and after a reboot the firewall was blocking everything and postfix was again not working. In the postfix logs I found the following: Code: Apr 9 18:45:45 server01 dovecot: auth: Error: auth worker: Aborted PASSV request for [email protected]: Lookup timed out Apr 9 18:45:45 server01 dovecot: auth: Warning: auth workers: Auth request was queued for 54 seconds, 3 left in queue (see auth_worker_max_count) Apr 9 18:45:45 server01 dovecot: auth-worker(547): Error: sql([email protected],2a01:xxxxx:xxxx:xxxx:xxx:ba27,<6TSwbTvcm+Qxxxxxx>): Password query failed: Not connected to database Apr 9 18:45:45 server01 dovecot: auth-worker(547): Warning: conn unix:auth-worker (pid=542,uid=0): auth-worker<1>: Auth master disconnected us while handling request for [email protected] for 60 secs (result=FAIL) Apr 9 18:45:45 server01 dovecot: auth-worker(772): Error: mysql(localhost): Connect failed to database (dbispconfig): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2) - waiting for 1 seconds before retry Apr 9 18:45:45 server01 dovecot: auth-worker(772): Error: mysql(localhost): Connect failed to database (dbispconfig): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2) - waiting for 1 seconds before retry Apr 9 18:45:46 server01 dovecot: auth-worker(772): Error: mysql(localhost): Connect failed to database (dbispconfig): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2) - waiting for 5 seconds before retry Apr 9 18:45:46 server01 dovecot: auth-worker(772): Error: mysql(localhost): Connect failed to database (dbispconfig): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2) - waiting for 5 seconds before retry It always works after a manual restart of the services. Could all of these be a problem with the database ?
