Hi Jochen,
When amavis is in the broken state, does `service amavis start` fix it or
is it just `service amavis restart` that fixes it? If 'restart' works, but
'start' doesn't, I wonder if Puppet is running the start command instead of
restart. Running the puppet agent in debug mode should show you the actual
command being run. If you see `systemctl start amavis` is being run, you
might try setting the `start` parameter to what you have `restart` set to:
service { 'amavis':
...
start => '/usr/sbin/service amavis restart',
...
}
Thanks,
Nick
