https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=991233 Bug ID: 991233 Summary: amavisd.service fails to start because required default folders are missing Product: Fedora Version: 19 Component: amavisd-new Assignee: steve@xxxxxxxxx Reporter: jflorian@xxxxxxxxxxxxx QA Contact: extras-qa@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx CC: arcfi@xxxxxxxxxx, jflorian@xxxxxxxxxxxxx, kanarip@xxxxxxxxxxx, perl-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx, sexynaya2010@xxxxxxxxxxx, steve@xxxxxxxxx +++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #863069 +++ Description of problem: There are some default folder locations specified in the config file that don't get created when amavisd-new is installed. The program fails to start because of it, at least until the host is rebooted. For example, this message gets printed to the log file when trying to start the service: amavis[5461]: (!)Net::Server: 2012/10/04-04:35:06 Couldn't open pid file "/var/run/amavisd/amavisd.pid" [No such file or directory].\n\n at line 318 in fil...Net/Server.pm In order to make amavisd.service start correctly, I had to do the following: mkdir /var/spool/amavisd/var mkdir /var/run/amavisd/ chown -R amavis:amavis /var/spool/amavisd/var /var/run/amavisd/ chmod 700 /var/spool/amavisd/var After that, everything worked as expected. The other option is to reboot before attempting to start the service. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): amavisd-new-2.8.0-5.fc19 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. yum install amavisd-new 2. systemctl start amavisd.service 3. Actual results: Fails to start Expected results: Starts using default config file Additional info: I noticed that /var/run/amavisd is not present immediately after installing the package. Once I rebooted the host, the directory became available. To me this suggests that the entry /etc/tmpfiles.d/amavisd-new.conf is doing its job, but the spec file for this package needs to also make the same temporary directories as part of package installation, or somehow rerun the tmpfiles.d jobs. Without doing this, those directories won't be available right after package installation. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
