Hi team,

DKIM filter fails starting on Ubuntu 12.04LTS because Virtualmin supposes that initctl controls opendkim on Ubuntu 12.04LTS:

In Virtualmin / Email Messages / DomainKeys Identified Mail: starting DKIM give in Ubuntu 12.04LTS:

Starting DKIM filter .. .. start failed : initctl: Unknown job: opendkim

I saw a similar quick-fix on Internet for this, like follows, but correct way is to use "service opendkim start" instead of initctl on Ubuntu 12.04LTS. So it's a bug and following is just a workaround.

Best Regards, Beat

vi /etc/init/opendkim.conf (new file, and add:)

description "openDKIM job shim for VirtualMin" author "Raif Atef" start on runlevel 5 stop on runlevel [!5]

pre-start script sh /etc/init.d/opendkim start end script

post-stop script sh /etc/init.d/opendkim stop end script

Status: 
Closed (fixed)

That's odd, as Virtualmin should handle systems that use a mix of init.d and upstart.

Which Webmin version are you running there? This should be displayed on the System Information page.

This is the same bug as your other ticket - Webmin 1.600 doesn't support mixed boot systems.

Version 1.610 does though, and should be in the Virtualmin APT repository shortly. Or you can simply upgrade manually with :

wget http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/webadmin/webmin_1.610_all.deb
dpkg --install webmin_1.610_all.deb
