• Please be aware: Kaspersky Anti-Virus has been deprecated
    With the upgrade to Plesk Obsidian 18.0.64, "Kaspersky Anti-Virus for Servers" will be automatically removed from the servers it is installed on. We recommend that you migrate to Sophos Anti-Virus for Servers.
  • The Horde webmail has been deprecated. Its complete removal is scheduled for April 2025. For details and recommended actions, see the Feature and Deprecation Plan.
  • We’re working on enhancing the Monitoring feature in Plesk, and we could really use your expertise! If you’re open to sharing your experiences with server and website monitoring or providing feedback, we’d love to have a one-hour online meeting with you.

Mail pop & map down after last plesk update.

Basic Pleskian
Got a Plesk update a few nights ago & all seemed well but rebooted my server last night & courier map & pop services will not start with errors of:
courier-pop3d: bind: Address already in use
courier-pop3s: bind: Address already in use
courier-imapd: bind: Address already in use
courier-imaps: bind: Address already in use

Smtp appears to be working fine & just can't get any mail in.

OS ‪CentOS 6.7 (Final)‬
Plesk version 12.5.30 Update #15

Anyone else had a similar issue since the last update or even earlier updates as I haven't rebooted the server for quite a while.
 
Kill corresponding processes and try to start them again.
 
Stopped
smtp postfix
Courier IMAP authentication daemon
DNS Server (BIND)
Plesk milter (Postfix)

but still cannot start pop & imap

Is that what you meant for me to do?
 
Cant help thinking this is something to do with the problem:

WARNING: key file (/etc/rndc.key) exists, but using default configuration file (/etc/rndc.conf)

Got this after running "service named status"
 
I was wrong.
moved the rndc.key file to another location & restarted Bind, error now gone but still cannot start mail pop or imap.
 
Looks like I was right in that it was the rndc.key file, but restarting the service didn't work but a reboot did.
