[IMPORTANT] Read before the update to ZCS 7.1.1 on Centos or RHL5

[halley]

Today I was updating from ZCS 7.1.0 to ZCS 7.1.1 and got the error in the MTA.

[zimbra@mail ~]$ zmcontrol status
Host xxx.com.br
antispam Running
antivirus Running
ldap Running
logger Running
mailbox Running
mta Stopped
postfix is not running
snmp Running
spell Running
stats Running
zmconfigd Running


It generates the following error in postfix:

[zimbra@mail ~]$ postfix check
postfix/postfix-script: warning: not owned by root: /opt/zimbra/postfix-2.7.4.2z/conf/main.cf
postfix/postfix-script: warning: not owned by root: /opt/zimbra/postfix-2.7.4.2z/conf/master.cf
postfix/postfix-script: warning: not owned by root: /opt/zimbra/postfix-2.7.4.2z/conf/master.cf.in
postfix/postfix-script: warning: not owned by postfix: /opt/zimbra/data/postfix/data/./master.lock
postfix/postfix-script: warning: not owned by postfix: /opt/zimbra/data/postfix/data/./prng_exch


to solve this problem as root:

chown root:root /opt/zimbra/postfix-2.7.4.2z/conf/ -R
chown postfixostfix /opt/zimbra/data/postfix/data/. -R

and as zimbra:

postfix start

-
mta work fine.
I hope I have helped friends who will do the update.

What does 'not work' actually mean? You need to give more information.

The following messages you listed earlier are just warnings:

postfix/postfix-script: warning: not owned by root: /opt/zimbra/postfix-2.7.4.2z/conf/main.cf
postfix/postfix-script: warning: not owned by root: /opt/zimbra/postfix-2.7.4.2z/conf/master.cf
postfix/postfix-script: warning: not owned by root: /opt/zimbra/postfix-2.7.4.2z/conf/master.cf.in

You should not modify the ownership of these files from their original settings of zimbra:zimbra.

I thought applying the patch was to fix these errors, yes?

[raj]

1) Apply pacth to 7.1.1
http://files2.zimbra.com/downloads/7....1_GA_3213.tgz

2) Reboot

3) fix permissions as ROOT
/opt/zimbra/libexec/zmfixperms --verbose --extended

4) restart zimbra


Should fix it

[showmanchoyin]

Thank you so much ... everyone.
I get this problem and in 15 minutes thanks to this forum which was published I could solve the error ...

[wolfsden3]

This is what fixed it for me, this post led me to the right direction but wasn't exactly what I needed.

I did:

cd /opt/zimbra/postfix

ls -la

Saw that the master.cf.in was owned by zimbra:zimbra and that someone elses that "worked" was rootostfix

Since I was "su - zimbra" I typed exit to get back into root, then cd /opt/zimbra/postfix

chown rootostfix master.cf.in

Then I did "su -zimbra" again to get back into the zimbra account.

Then: postfix start

I got this error:

postfix/postfix-script: warning: not owned by root: /opt/zimbra/postfix-2.7.8.3z/conf/main.cf

I then typed exit to get back into root, cd'd to /opt/zimbra/postfix-2.7.8.3z/conf/

chown root:zimbra master.cf

su - zimbra

start postfix

Now my MTA is working

Under 7.1.4 we do get similar errors:

May 23 16:53:49 server postfix/postfix-script[8827]: warning: not owned by root: /opt/zimbra/postfix-2.7.7.3z/conf/main.cf
May 23 16:53:49 server postfix/postfix-script[8828]: warning: not owned by root: /opt/zimbra/postfix-2.7.7.3z/conf/master.cf

May 23 16:53:49 server postfix/master[8847]: daemon started -- version 2.7.7, configuration /opt/zimbra/postfix-2.7.7.3z/conf

But postifx does start...
