Re: policyd doesnt start

Please figure out which RPM package provides file "libgcc_s.so.1", then install it and try again.

Re: policyd doesnt start

I did a quick search in Google, looks like you have to install package 'libgcc46'.

# zypper install libgcc46

Re: policyd doesnt start

Please change parameter DEBUG to 1 in Policyd config file, restart Policyd service and monitor the log file. Let's see what happens.

Interesting. You go back just because there's an issue happened.

Re: policyd doesnt start

I agree... He is upset because something didn't work out with a FREE solution in which he is receiving FREE support.

I paid for my subscription just because you're awesome Zhang and of course I love iredadmin-pro

Re: policyd doesnt start

Yes, sorry. This is my primary mail server and I have only this weekend to try iRedMail and because issue with policyd is "strange", I must return all to provious settings. But I think iRedMail is good piece of software/scripts and when I have more time, I try it again.

Re: policyd doesnt start

Is it a x86 or x86_64 (amd64) server OS?

Could you please show me output of below commands:

# uname -a
# rpm -qi policyd

Re: policyd doesnt start

OK, seems i solved this issue by rebuilding RPM package with addition flag: -lgcc_s.

Please try to fix it with below steps:

1) Backup policyd config file:

# cp /etc/policyd.conf /etc/policyd.conf.bak

2) Delete policyd package.

# rpm -e policyd

3) Install the one i rebuilt.

# rpm -ivh http://iredmail.org/yum/opensuse/12.1/policyd-1.82-3.5.x86_64.rpm

4) Reverse config file:

# cp /etc/policyd.conf.bak /etc/policyd.conf

5) Start it:

# /etc/init.d/policyd restart

That's all.

Please do let me know whether it works for you or not. Thanks. smile

Re: policyd doesnt start

Re: policyd doesnt start

It will be fine.

Policyd is provided by iRedMail's zypper repository, not openSUSE official repositories.
Currently, Policyd-1.82 is the latest stable release, released on 2007-08-20. We will switch to Policyd-2 (complete rewritten in Perl programming language) in about one year.

Re: policyd doesnt start

Thank's a lot. I can start to test it now. If it will be OK for my use, I'm sure I will buy Pro version.
