New Pleskian
Hi All,
today, in the middle of the day, no less, my Plesk Obsidian server updated from 18.0.39 > 18.0.40. Well, it attempted to. but encountered an error, and rolled back.
This resulted in Postfix having issues.
there was multiple packages for postfix installed, which I've managed to clean up removing the cleandupes etc.... all good.
I then set about removing postfix, and then attempting the upgrade from 18.0.39 > 18.0.40 - and this worked.
I then attempted to install PostFix and DoveCot, however I got a multitude of errors about postfix, so I set to use QMail and DoveCot. This got mail servers installed, however, currently QMail is not happily receiving email.
I would rather go back to Postfix - however, when I attempt to install postfix using the web installer in plesk, i Get the error
If I attempt to install via the command line, i get the following logs:
I am stumped. I can see that it's unable ot install the particular postfix package, but I cannot work out why.
Server is Centos 7, running CloudLinux 7.9, with Plesk 18.0.40.
Was happily running PostFix prior to this upgrade attempt.
Open to ideas/suggestions.
