I've reached a bit of an impasse and I need a pointer or two to get past a problem I'm having.
When executing the courier-authdaemon init script I get the following three (3) errors: Starting Courier mail server:mkdir: cannot create directory `: -xaliasdir=/etc/courier/aliasdir/.courier-:xalias\033E': No such file or directory cat: makedat: /etc/courier/smtpaccess : No such file or directory Cannot create makedat: /etc/courier/smtpaccess.tmp Cannot create makedat: /etc/courier/smtpaccess.tmp cat: makedat: /etc/courier/smtpaccess : No such file or directory courierfilter authdaemond courierd Here's what I have determined so far: 1) None of the errors are directly generated by the init script itself, but by other scripts the init script executes. 2) None of the errors happen if I execute the called scripts manually. 3) The first error is a result of calling /usr/sbin/makealiases only happens as long as the the /etc/courier/aliases.dat file does not exist (i.e.: only the first time). Every other time, there is no error. 4) The other two errors are a result of calling /usr/sbin/makesmtpaccess and /usr/sbin/makesmtpaccess-msa, respectively. They produce the error every time (whether the data file exists or not), and never actually create the data file. 5) Did I mention that running the called scripts manually works correctly every time? Does anyone have any pointers to finding a fix or suggestions on fixing this?
