Can't get SMTP to work, error message about passwd.db is repeated

Hosting a web server with a php application which uses the mail() function in php, which requires the SMTP server to be running on the machine. But I have som problems starting it...
This message is repeated every 61 second in the SMTP log, no matter which log level I choose:
May 14 18:19:36 192 postfix/smtp[27178]: fatal: open database /etc/postfix/sasl/passwd.db: No such file or directory
May 14 18:19:37 192 postfix/master[26125]: warning: process /usr/libexec/postfix/smtp pid 27178 exit status 1
May 14 18:19:37 192 postfix/master[26125]: warning: /usr/libexec/postfix/smtp: bad command startup -- throttling
I haven't dont any manual configuration in text files, only used Server Admin. What is this about? Why can't there be a button to restore all settings for a service to default settings?
If I run the simplest possible php code to send a mail, the mail function return true, indicating it was accepted for delivery, and I can see the mail on the que. I get this in the smtp log:
May 14 18:20:55 192 postfix/qmgr[26127]: C9ED54D201: from=<[email protected]>, size=267, nrcpt=2 (queue active)

  • Can't get update to work - error message is to input proxy address and proxy details

    I have my printer printing but can't seem to get it to connect to the internet to get any s/w updates.  I'm connected wirelessly and am using Windows XP.  I don't think I have a fixed proxy address.  What to do??

    What printer do you have?

  • Desktop Manager "disconnected" and I can't get rid of the error message

    I just purchased a Blackberry Curve 8530, running v5 software, my computer is Windows 7. I installed the 501_b073_multilanguage software that I downloaded from Blackberry's website. When I launch the Desktop manager I get this message: "Before you begin, verify that your current BlackBerry device is connected to your computer." The troubleshooting posts I've seen on this forum include many tips (the ones I've tried are below). One in particular I can't do is "The desktop manager is showing "disabled."
    -Make sure that the user has gone into the desktop manager and selected options > connection settings > detect."
    ... because I can't get rid of the error message dialoge box, and I can't click on the options menu in the BB Desktop Manager.
    I have tried the following:
    uninstalled it and reinstalled it twice - 2nd uninstall was a "hard" uninstall where I deleted the registry files by hand
    moved the cable to the USB port in the back (after trying both the ports in the front) of the computer
    restarted the computer many times
    hard booted the phone by removing the battery
    plugged in, removed, and replugged in the phone.
    Also:
    The phone is installing correctly when I plug it in, but the software still doesn't seem to see it.
    In the Device Manager, the BlackBerry is showing up under Portable Devices. Double-clicking on it gives me the reassurring "This device is working properly." message.
    The Com1 port is working properly also, according to the Device Manager.
    Double-clicking on the device manager icon to get the properties shows that the Com1 port is "disconnected" -- when I try to configure it it just pops back to the disconnected state.
    If someone has an idea or something I haven't tried I'd sure appreciate it!!
    Thanks!

    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Okay, folks, after a 3 1/2 hour phone call with a (very patient) telephone support person at Blackberry, here's what I learned.
    You can check your USB drivers this way:
    Plug in your phone into your USB drive. Assuming your Blackberry is "seen" by your computer...
    Go into the Device Manager on your computer (control panel)
    Expand the Universal Serial Bus controllers item on the bottom of the list
    Right-click on BlackBerry Smartphone and choose Properties
    Click on the Driver tab
    Click on the Driver Details button
    You should see one driver. I saw two. The one the BlackBerry likes is the RimUsb one.
    So here's what NOT to do: We tossed the entire driver that was the "extra". This effectively made using my mouse and keyboard impossible, as they are USB, and sent my poor husband into the basement to find a million-year-old keyboard (and then a mouse) with the old fashioned kind of connectors (PS2). Bleh. Don't do that.
    Here's what I did that worked (not saything this will work for you -- this modifies the Registry so better do a system backup with that backup and restore if you're nervous about this sort of thing):
    From the start menu, choose run, and type regedit to get into the Registry editor.
    Follow this file path: Computer, HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, SYSTEM, CurrentControlSet, Control, Class
    Click on: {36FCE60-C465-11CF-8056-4445535400000}
    If there's an item on the right called "UpperFilters", delete it. (see pictures)
    Hope this helps someone.

  • When starting Firefox 4 I get an error message. After clicking OK it nevertheless runs. How can I get rid off the error message.

    When starting up Firefox 4 I get an error message. After clicking OK it nevertheless runs. How can I get rid off the error message?
    The error message is: what happened: Type Error: Components. classes ['@mozilla.org/extensions/manager;1'] is undefined.
    It appears all the time already from the beginning after installing Firefox 4.

    Thanks a lot. The Ask toolbar created this problem. Another problem is: When searching on the web via Google, normally it is possible to type a few letters and then look what appears and then click on the wanted word(s). A number of word(s) ineed do appear, however it is not possible to select any of them as ws possible as mentioned in olders versions.

  • I can't get Itunes to work after message that it was successfully installed.  Error message MSVCR80.dll was not found  Error 7.  Help?

    Help?

    Click here and follow the instructions. You may need to completely remove and reinstall iTunes and all related components, or run the process multiple times; this won't normally affect its library, but that should be backed up anyway.

    I plug in to pc and iTunes has a message that reads:
    We could not complete your iTunes Store request. The network connection timed out. Make sure your network settings are correct and your network connection is active, then try again.

  • How can i get rid of a  Error message from Symantec at start up.  I tried to delete the program but nothing makes it go away.

    It seems to be in some sort of boot up command string.   I have no idea where to look?  Thanks for any advice.  It is a long trip to the nearest apple store.

    You have probably downloaded the Norton program which is one of the least desirable helpmates you can invite in.

  • Cant get rid of download error message in garage band learn to play

    I had trouble downloading lessons 5 and 7 in the Blues Guitar learn to play.  I found a discussion addressing this, and was able to complete the down load by logging into the guest account.  I have all the lessons, but now I can't get rid of the error message that says Garage Band still is waiting to download the lessons.  When I click on the message it refers me to call the Apple Store.  I was in their electronic feedback loop for 15 mins before I bailed.  Any ideas?

    Might be easiest to run their uninstall app.
    This might mean you have to reinstall it if it is already deleted or better yet download and just mount the volume to open the folders to get to the uninstaller.

Iam still able to surf the net and use the printer, but I can't get rid of the error message. Does anyone have any ideas? inormally use aol as a homepage. I have tryed to reset it but it is a no go.

    Can you manually "google" to the homepage?  If so, then the homepage is OK, just re-save the homepage as your default page in Internet Options by selecting "use current".

  • After installing Version 5 I get an error message about incompatibility and min and max versions.

    I shutdown Zone Alarm, and deleted the contents of the file, which contained the "exe" file, then reinstalled Firefox version 5.0. I still get the XUL Runner error message about incompatibility of Version 5.0 with min and max 5.0.1. What next?

    The updater wasn't able to update all the files and some were left as older versions.<br />
    You need to do a clean reinstall.
    Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.
    * Firefox 5.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
    * Uninstall your current Firefox version.
    * Do not remove personal data when you uninstall the current version.
    Remove the Firefox program folder before installing that newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.
    * It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
    Your bookmarks and other profile data are stored elsewhere in the Firefox Profile Folder and won't be affected by a reinstall, but make sure that you do not select to remove personal data if you uninstall Firefox.

    Is there a way to reset my messages account, I can't get iMessage to work on IPad nor Mac osx. Help please this is really frustrating.

    Hi,
    Is there an iPhone involved ?
    If not, what happens  if you remove the Apple ID on the iPad and then set it in Airplane Mode (allow a couple of minutes at this point) followed by re-adding the Apple ID ?
    What, if any error messages are appearing on the Mac when you try to launch the App or Login to the iMessages server ?
    Is the Apple ID linked to an iCloud account ?
