#3767 Checking Configuration

[siegfried]

i have many times this error:

SpamAssassin and Procmail are installed and configured for use.

The procmail command procmail has 0 permissions, when it should be setuid and setgid to root. Email may not be properly delivered or checked for spam.

.. your system is not ready for use by Virtualmin.

-rwsr-sr-x 1 root mail 89240 2009-12-22 22:41 /usr/bin/procmail*

Operating system Ubuntu Linux 10.04.1
Virtualmin version 3.80.gpl GPL

I can't correct this
I must install a fresh Ubuntu and run install.sh from Virtualmin
so I lost all my sites

Looks like the real issue may be that the procmail path in /etc/postfix/main.cf is wrong. What output do you get from the command :

grep mailbox_command /etc/postfix/main.cf

grep mailbox_command /etc/postfix/main.cf

Try changing that to :

mailbox_command = /usr/bin/procmail -a "$EXTENSION"

[siegfried]

here is the output of ls -r
-rwsr-xr-x 1 root root 89240 2009-12-22 22:41 /usr/bin/procmail*
-rwsr-xr-x 1 root root 4536 2006-12-14 05:00 /usr/bin/procmail-wrapper*

the file /usr/bin/procmail-wrapper has the right setings

the chmod --help says : chmod [OPTION]... --reference=RFILE FILE.

now I type : chmod --reference=/usr/bin/procmail-wrapper /usr/bin/procmail

and now it works and the error is gone

I don't have the right options for chmod with out the refercence
