Hi,
This morning I shot myself in the foot.
For some reason the postgre sql db was not working, along with sendmail.
(seems like spamassin knocked the server down as I got several messages that
[/var] was getting full and no more writing could be done; but that's
something else)
I restarted it as root and everything seemed to be back to normal but then I
got into my daily 2 minutes of full stupidty and erased the whole /var/log
dir INCLUDING postgresql , (except Samba).
Sendmail stopped again inmediately and when I noticed what I had done it was
too late.
I run Rackbackup.sh daily, so I restored all the users and sites some
minutes later.
Up to there everything seemed back to normal, except when site
administrators try to log in or I try to do changes to them - site admins -
I can't nor they do.
A site admin was erased and it still appears in the GUI but not in the
site's users list. If try to add it again, it conflicts with another
existing alias. All other users are ok.
Postgresql group and owner are checked and fine.
Please advice what can I do from here.
Saludos,
-
