Hi!
So, i recently emerged postfix, and i get these errors in /var/log/mail.log:
| Code: |
Oct 25 19:30:57 veg-cannibals postfix/smtpd[16511]: fatal: open database /etc/mail/aliases.db: No such file or directory
Oct 25 19:30:58 veg-cannibals postfix/master[21954]: warning: process /usr/lib/postfix/smtpd pid 16511 exit status 1
Oct 25 19:30:58 veg-cannibals postfix/master[21954]: warning: /usr/lib/postfix/smtpd: bad command startup -- throttling
O

then i tried to do "cp /etc/mail/aliases /etc/mail/aliases.db" and then i get this
| Code: |
Oct 25 19:29:56 veg-cannibals postfix/smtpd[32380]: fatal: open database /etc/mail/aliases.db: Invalid argument
Oct 25 19:29:57 veg-cannibals postfix/master[21954]: warning: process /usr/lib/postfix/smtpd pid 32380 exit status 1
Oct 25 19:29:57 veg-cannibals postfix/master[21954]: warning: /usr/lib/postfix/smtpd: bad command startup -- throttling

Run the command newaliases instead of trying to copy a text file over to what should be a binary hash file. newaliases will generate an aliases.db based on /etc/mail/aliases
