I did a fresh install of dovecot-postfix on Maverick, including: dovecot-common 1:1.2.12-1ubuntu5 postfix 2.7.1-1
I had no problem restarting dovecot: $ sudo service dovecot restart dovecot start/running, process 2490 Or upgrading dovecot-postfix: Unpacking replacement dovecot-postfix ... Setting up dovecot-postfix (1:1.2.11-1ubuntu1) ... Configuring postfix for dovecot-postfix integration: .................... done. dovecot start/running, process 3015 * Stopping Postfix Mail Transport Agent postfix [ OK ] * Starting Postfix Mail Transport Agent postfix [ OK ] So it looks like it's not 100% reproducible, or only affects busy dovecot instances ? The classic init script had a do_stop that would run twice in a row "start-stop-daemon --stop --quiet --oknodo --retry=0/30/KILL/5 --pidfile $PIDFILE --name ${DAEMON##*/}"... maybe that's why it succeeds in your case. -- dovecot-postfix and upstart incompatibility https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/646858 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
