[Bug 634839] Re: package postfix 2.7.0-1 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1
excuse me chuck but why would this be invalid? do you consider postfix to behave properly if it just crashes over a non existing /etc/aliases? I am just saying that it requires about one line of code to fix this, something like if [! test -f /etc/aliases]; touch /etc/aliases; ... (or so i am not familiar with bash scripting...)? your's firebug -- package postfix 2.7.0-1 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/634839 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to postfix in ubuntu. -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs

Hi firebird, I won't speak for Chuck, but I will agree with his decision to close the bug report. The reason is, there's no pattern identified in the report that suggests a normal situation or a repeatable test case. When you say you tinkered and aren't sure, this makes it really hard for us to repeat the issue or identify what should be changed. Its not clear at all whether the file /etc/aliases was there, or not, and what exactly failed. If you can maybe boot up a vm or a spare server with a clean install, and recreate the situation (possibly by removing /etc/aliases before installing postfix?), and post it here, then you are welcome to re-open the report (change Status back to New) and we'll take another look. -- package postfix 2.7.0-1 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/634839 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to postfix in ubuntu. -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs

Hi Clint! Nope, none of the above, /etc has completely normal acces/ownership attributes and no hardening, no SELinux or what so ever. Bad thing is I have been tinkering around so much meanwhile that i don't recall with 100% certainty if it was due to the file not existing at the time... If i recall this correctly after purging sendmail /etc/aliases and /etc/aliases.db were gone, and after touching it manually and reinstalling postfix it worked. I hope that gets you further?

Hi firebird, thanks for taking the time to report this as a bug and help us make Ubuntu better. This one is very confusing. Since all of this runs as root, there should have been no permission denied on file access. Did you have /etc mounted readonly, or maybe some hardening on the system, like immutable files on /etc, that might have layered on top of the normal permissions? Marking Incomplete, firebird, please respond to the above at your earliest convenience so I can reopen the bug.
