Dovecot config file suddenly bricked, missing curly bracket.

Submitted by mike0810 on Mon, 09/14/2020 - 05:34

Since yesterday 13.9. around 12:00 CET, my Mails were not arriving. I detected, Dovecot was not running. The config file was bricked.

Should have looked like this: local_name www.theDomain.com { ssl_cert = </home/theDomain.com/ssl.cert ssl_cert = </home/theDomain.com/ssl.combined ssl_key = </home/theDomain.com/ssl.key } local_name autoconfig.theDomain.com { ssl_cert = </home/theDomain.com/ssl.cert ssl_key = </home/theDomain.com/ssl.key ssl_cert = </home/theDomain.com/ssl.combined ssl_key = </home/theDomain.com/ssl.key ssl_cert = </home/theDomain.com/ssl.cert ssl_key = </home/theDomain.com/ssl.key ssl_ca = </etc/webmin/webmin/theDomain.com.chain ssl_cert = </home/theDomain.com/ssl.combined ssl_key = </home/theDomain.com/ssl.key ssl_key = </home/rideit.bike/ssl.key }

but looked like this (curly bracket was missing):

local_name www.theDomain.com { ssl_cert = </home/theDomain.com/ssl.cert ssl_cert = </home/theDomain.com/ssl.combined ssl_key = </home/theDomain.com/ssl.key local_name autoconfig.theDomain.com { ssl_cert = </home/theDomain.com/ssl.cert ssl_key = </home/theDomain.com/ssl.key ssl_cert = </home/theDomain.com/ssl.combined ssl_key = </home/theDomain.com/ssl.key ssl_cert = </home/theDomain.com/ssl.cert ssl_key = </home/theDomain.com/ssl.key ssl_ca = </etc/webmin/webmin/theDomain.com.chain ssl_cert = </home/theDomain.com/ssl.combined ssl_key = </home/theDomain.com/ssl.key ssl_key = </home/rideit.bike/ssl.key }

I did not update or install anything, i didn´t touch the server anyhow. So I assume its either a faulty script while updating lets encrypt, or its a faulty update script (I have auto-update on for security updates.

However, for your information.

Cheers...

This issue has been fixed in Webmin 1.955 and Virtualmin 6.12.

Please upgrade.

Yum tells me: "No update exists from version 6.10.gpl-2" but Webmin Update suddenly popped up from gui.

Please fix your /etc/yum.repos.d/virtualmin.repo to contain:

[virtualmin]

My .repo file looks like this since ever, but also suddenly the update was successful. Do I need the GPL:GPL@ ? [virtualmin] name=RHEL/CentOS/Scientific $releasever - $basearch - Virtualmin baseurl=http://GPL:GPL@software.virtualmin.com/gpl/rhel/$releasever/$basearch/ enabled=1 gpgkey=file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-virtualmin gpgcheck=1

baseurl=http://software.virtualmin.com/vm/6/gpl/centos/$releasever/$basearch/
enabled=1
gpgkey=https://software.virtualmin.com/lib/RPM-GPG-KEY-virtualmin-6
