Every time I see the error "Failed to query Postfix config command" , it indicates lack of RAM to run the
postconf
command. How much memory does your system have?Submitted by JamieCameron on Fri, 06/18/2010 - 18:32 Comment #2

I have a VM, the VM is currently running 400MB of ram, i have tried closing systems i don't need, like PostgreSQL.
Real memory 400.19 MB total, 283.39 MB used Virtual memory 127.99 MB total, 127.99 MB used
I'm looking at what other processes i can close down, any other recommendations?

I'd recommend going to 512M if you can ... at least until I complete the change I'm working on to make collectinfo.pl use less RAM.
