Description

Postfix seems disabled but can't enabled.
When trying to restart Postfix from the GUI nothing seems to happen. The checkbox disappears.

The logfiles show the following information:
Dec 10 20:54:51 postfix/postfix-script95066: fatal: the Postfix mail system is already running
Dec 10 20:54:49 php: /status_services.php: The command '/usr/local/etc/rc.d/postfix.sh stop' returned exit code '126', the output was '/usr/local/etc/rc.d/postfix.sh: Permission denied'

Inspection of the permissions shows that the execute bit it not set. This has probably something to do with the latest package update. It worked fine before.

  1. chmod +x postfix.sh fixes the issue but introduces a new error message:

The Postfix package version is 2.10.2 pkg v.2.3.9
