• Debian 11 has reached its end-of-life (vendor EOL date - August 31, 2026). Plesk Obsidian 18.0.81 is the last release to support it.
    If you are running Plesk Obsidian on Debian 11, we recommend you upgrade those servers to Debian 12 using our dist-upgrade tool.
  • We plan to deprecate and remove the support for XML RPC protocol versions earlier than 1.6.9.1 in Plesk Obsidian 18.0.82. We strongly recommend that you update all existing integrations using earlier versions of the XML RPC protocol to comply with the version 1.6.9.1 specification.

Question Deleted /var/log -> mailman and maillog not working

hansitheking

Basic Pleskian
I had some problems with a backup and the var/log folder was full (400 GB) so I desided to delete it. I know this was no good Idea! My Server is now running againg I had to create some folders inside /var/log until the Server could reboot without erros. My Server is running but mailman can´t be restarted and the /var/log/maillog is empty.

My System is: Ubuntu 14.04 with Plesk 12.5.3

Is there someone how may give me some advice to get mailman running again? It is showing this:
Code:
service mailman restart
 * Restarting Mailman master qrunner mailmanctl  Kein Kindprozess mit der PID 4476 vorhanden
[Errno 3] No such process
Liegengebliebene pid-Datei entfernt.

Maybee someone can post a ls -l of the /var/log directory, so that I can rebuild it.

Thanks a lot vor your help!
 
For mailman it helps to run /usr/lib/mailman/check_perms and then maybe sudo check_perms -f. Mailman is still not starting.
 
Check permissions:

# stat /var/log/mailman
File: `/var/log/mailman'
Size: 4096 Blocks: 8 IO Block: 4096 directory
