[debian lenny] upgrade sloopt courier-imap/exim4?

[Feanaro]

Na een upgrade van etch naar lenny (via aptitude dist-upgrade), werkt m'n imapserver niet meer. Ik kan er niet meer bij. Vandaar dat ik even ben gaan kijken in de mail log (/var/log/mail.log). Deze gaf de volgende output rond het tijdstip van upgrade:

Zoeken via Google levert deze site onder andere op: http://www.zyxware.com/ar...conf-found-in-exim-config

Hier staat dat het een config probleem is met upgraden van exim4 (zal waarschijnlijk in de lenny upgrade dus een exim upgrade gezeten hebben. Daarbij heb ik waarschijnlijk gekozen voor de optie om de huidige config te handhaven i.p.v. deze te vervangen met de nieuwe. De nieuwe confs zouden het probleem volgens deze site op moeten lossen. Nu heb ik de huidige config geback-upped, maar ik weet niet hoe ik de config files goed krijg. Er staat dat je deze uit een DEB kunt halen, maar dat krijg ik niet voor elkaar... Is er een andere wijze om je config te "resetten"? Of kan iemand me met die bestanden helpen?

1) Een deb uitpakken is redelijk simpel.

code:

dpkg -x package-foo_1.2.3.deb /tmp

2) Met dpkg-reconfigure exim4-config

3) Sorry

dpkg-reconfigure exim4-config geeft:

/usr/sbin/dpkg-reconfigure: exim4-config is broken or not fully installed

Nu heb ik de DEB uitgepakt, maar ik kan nergens de configfiles vinden. Er staat een /usr directory in het package waarin de volgende bestanden staan:

drwxr-xr-x 6 root root 4096 2008-09-30 20:57 .
drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4096 2008-09-30 20:57 ..
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 2009-04-25 13:11 bin
drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4096 2009-04-25 13:11 lib
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 2009-04-25 13:11 sbin
drwxr-xr-x 6 root root 4096 2008-09-30 20:57 share

Wat ik zou doen is het volgende:

1. Backup je oude exim config files.

2. Daarna aptitude purge exim4 exim4-config enzovoort enzovoort
Noot: Misschien moet je opties als force gebruiken maar al die exim bende moet eraf. Het kan ook zijn dat je package management gaat zeuren dat er een mail daemon ontbreekt installer dan even tijdelijk nullmailer of ssmtp ofzo.

3. Als alles eraf is installeer exim4 daarna opnieuw en configureer exim netjes.

gelukt!
