bug report: Amavis and Postfix complaining about permission denied.

[parmleyhunt]

📝 Preliminary Checks

• [X] I tried searching for an existing issue and followed the debugging docs advice, but still need assistance.

👀 What Happened?

Fresh install with no SSL. Logs repeat failure repeatedly. Ensured that the volumes for postfix and amavis both have the correct ownership and they do. Not really sure how/why

👟 Reproduction Steps

1. Install from community Image (which uses latest) currently looks like 14
2. Only change hostname parameter
3. Set network to br0 and give static IP
4. Start container

🐋 DMS Version

14.0.0

💻 Operating System and Architecture

Unraid 6.12.13

⚙️ Container configuration files

Not applicable pretty sure unraid runs via cli

Improvements to this form?

No response

/var/lib/amavis/amavisd.sock

That will be related to /var/mail-state volume mount. Is the volume bind mount to a local file system or is it a network share like NFS / NAS?

open directory defer: Permission denied

Same volume. These permissions are meant to be corrected during fresh container start up. Something in your environment is preventing that.

Ensured that the volumes for postfix and amavis both have the correct ownership and they do.

What is correct to you?

Amavis is simple:

Postfix is a bit more in-depth:
