Try changing the file master.cf
The first unhashed line with smtp, change the smtpd command {at the end of
the line}
into smtpd -v,
Then reload postfix, now you have more verbose logging and it could tell you
what typo you probably made,
When that does not work, perhaps displaying your main.cf could help....
Oh, dont forget to turn off the verbose logging again by removing the -v
from
the changed line ;)
cheers

Onderwerp: Postfix install questions..
Tonight, I starting looking into installing postfix to replace sendmail as
our primary MTA. I'm currently playing with it on my home system (fbsd 4.9)
and installing from ports. The install goes well, I've went through the
main.cf and set it up. However, when trying to connect to port 25, I get an
error "postfix fatal: unsupported dictionary type: " and nothing else.
postconf -m shows:
static
pcre
regexp
environ
proxy
btree
unix
hash
I've looked through google and it seems that every entry displaying
unsupported dictionary type shows hash, mysql, etc but nothing just simply
"empty". Am I correct in thinking that for some reason, postfix doesn't see
hash as a viable type even though it's found and compiled in?
Error log entries in mailllog show:
Mar 7 22:51:13 caverns postfix/smtpd[3564]: fatal: unsupported dictionary
type:
Mar 7 22:51:14 caverns postfix/master[3560]: warning: process
/usr/local/libexec/postfix/smtpd pid 3564 exit status 1
Mar 7 22:51:14 caverns postfix/master[3560]: warning:
/usr/local/libexec/postfix/smtpd: bad command startup -- throttling
A nudge in the right direction would be appreciated.
Thanks.
