Hi, Thanks for the reply.
I detected one problem: I had changed the ownership of /var/db/dspam/ to dspam, I neglected to change the ownership of the directory itself: /var/db/dspam That was still root, so I fixed that. Now v3.10.2_3 starts without the destination user error, but it still fails: Nov 6 17:59:40 galatea dspam[17976]: Daemon process starting Nov 6 17:59:40 galatea dspam[17976]: Creating local domain socket /var/run/dspam.sock Nov 6 17:59:40 galatea dspam[17976]: Daemon mode failed to start Nov 6 17:59:40 galatea dspam[17976]: Daemon process exiting The permissions for /var/run/ look OK: dspam dspam 512 Nov 6 18:12 dspam Maybe I need to recompile with debugging for more information? What do you think? Thanks Colin On 2016-11-06 11:02, L.
