Package: postgrey Version: 1.21-1volatile4 Severity: normal The subject is a little terse. The actual syslog message reads as follows:
postgrey[29999]: fatal: ERROR: can't create DB environment: No such file or directory It would help a lot if it would tell me *which* file/directory etc. I've included a patch. Now I know this: postgrey[31049]: fatal: ERROR: can't create DB environment: No such file or directory (dbdir: /var/lib/postgrey uid/gid: 111,111) # ls -la /var/lib/postgrey/ total 5424 drwx------ 2 postgrey root 4096 Feb 15 15:54 . drwxr-xr-x 33 root root 4096 Jan 25 22:32 .. -rw------- 1 postgrey nogroup 10485760 Feb 13 02:37 log.0000000011 -rw------- 1 postgrey nogroup 2519040 Feb 15 15:30 postgrey.db -rw------- 1 postgrey nogroup 0 Jul 15 2006 postgrey.lock -rw------- 1 postgrey nogroup 143360 Feb 13 02:40 postgrey_clients.db So what gives?
