Re: [AMaViS-user] parts_decode_ext FAILED: Unix utility file(1) not available

pollox,

 After an upgrade to amavisd-new version 2.4.2-3 on a debian etch I
 encounter the following error in mail.log:

 Nov 15 09:37:37 etch-sa-new amavis[3476]: (03476-02) (!!) TROUBLE in
 check_mail: parts_decode_ext FAILED: Unix utility file(1) not
 available, but is needed at (eval 43) line 109.

 But the file utility is available
 What's wrong here?

Where does the file utility reside? Is it in one of directories listed
in your $path variable in amavisd.conf? A usual setting is:
  $path = '/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/bin:/bin';

Is the file(1) program executable? Are you running amavisd chrooted
(in which case the file(1) and its database must be available in the jail).

   $path = '/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/bin:/bin';

P.S. if you prefer to keep $path empty, you may explicitly specify 
(amavisd.conf) where file utility resides, e.g.:

  $file = '/usr/local/bin/file';
