Dovecot / exim4 service stopped

[mill3rd]

Hi,

My server reports (both on command-line and on the service page within Vesta) that Dovecot / exim4 services are stopped.

When trying to restart them nothing happens.

Code: Select all

~# v-list-sys-services
NAME     STATE    CPU     MEM     RTIME
------   ------   ------  ------  ------
nginx    running  0       285     932
apache2  running  0       3592    906
bind9    running  0       0       906
exim4    stopped  0       0       0
dovecot  stopped  0       0       0
mysql    running  0       0       906
vsftpd   running  0       25      932
cron     running  0       25      939

Emails still are able to send/receive.
I followed the installation outlined by Steve Tan (http://stevetan.me/ubuntu-13-04-vestacp-setup/).

Anyone know of a reason for this, or what the implications are?
I am fairly new to this and have just installed Vesta CP on Ubuntu 13.10 on a digitalocean.com droplet.

Cheers,
Dave

I was having same problem with Ubuntu. I have installed CentOS 6.5 and no more problem afterwards.

I have re-installed Ubuntu and this problem was solved for me.
