I just upgraded our Plesk 10.4.4 to 12.0.18 (on Ubuntu 10.04, about to be upgraded to 12.04). Now I get the dreaded 'queue file write error' in postfix on message delivery.
It tries to open /usr/lib/plesk-9.0/postfix-queue (which is not there) in this block in master.cf:
And on top of that, If disable all the milters/proxy and just try to deliver to plesk_virtual directly, the e-mail just disappears. Postfix thinks it was delivered, but it is not.
I also tried piping some text through /usr/lib/plesk-9.0/postfix-local with the same parameters postfix gives it, but also then nothing. No error, no exit code, no message in maildir.
There are a bunch of fixes around for the queue file write error, but nothing works because the nature of my problem is different. There is a KB article around for Plesk 9, which can hardly be useful.
I tried restoring postfix-queue from the backups, but if I try to use that, the mail.log eventually says:
I also used /usr/local/psa/admin/sbin/mchk to no avail: the only change it makes to my master.cf, is adding an empty line. And, I suspect it uninstalled my psa-courier, because it was gone at some point, and mchk was the only thing I did after knowing courier was still there.
How can the postfix config refer to that postfix-queue when it's not there? Is this even a valid master.cf file for Plesk 12?
How do I fix this?
