Pulling my hair out here, really need some help with this one.
Upgraded my debian 5 (32-bit) box to 6.0.14 from 5.0.18, in preparation for a move to a new 64-bit server. (didn't get that far even)
The mta won't start with the following error in the log
fatal: Connect to the Postfix showq service: Permission denied
The things I've tried
1. SELinux
2. zmfixperms (both --extended and normal)
3. installed now self signed certs
4. nothing about nosuid in the fstab
5. Reboots
Everything else works fine, I can login and see the old mails, the server has been running like a dream for 4+ years.
I have a separate postfix system which accepts all my mails before they are delivered to zimbra, so all my current inbound mails are still in the queue, which is good.
But I cannot get the MTA to start, tried with zmmtactl after the rest of the system come up, and still gives me the same error.
I still bitches at me about some perms in postfix,even after the extended zmfixperms

============
I also get this zmcontrol start, no not know if its connected.
============
Starting spell...Failed.
Starting apache...httpd: Syntax error on line 232 of /opt/zimbra/conf/httpd.conf: Cannot load /opt/zimbra/httpd/modules/libphp5.so into server: /opt/zimbra/httpd/modules/libphp5.so: undefined symbol: gzopen64
failed.
============
This is the other common output asked for in these situations, and it looks clearly broken aswell, as it is not looking in the "right" places, as the spool directory for me is in /opt/zimbra/data/postfix/spool
============
zimbra@faraday:~$ ls -ld /opt/zimbra/postfix/sbin/postqueue /opt/zimbra/postfix/spool/public/* /opt/zimbra/postfix/spool/maildrop
ls: /opt/zimbra/postfix/spool/public/*: No such file or directory
ls: /opt/zimbra/postfix/spool/maildrop: No such file or directory
-rwxr-sr-x 1 root postdrop 610522 May 9 2011 /opt/zimbra/postfix/sbin/postqueue
zimbra@faraday:~$
============
I think the above could really be the problem for me, am tempted to create symlink to the current spool directory location.
which is what i've done, and i get the below
============
faraday:~# ls -ld /opt/zimbra/postfix/sbin/postqueue /opt/zimbra/postfix/spool/public/* /opt/zimbra/postfix/spool/maildrop

===============
i've now run a zmfixperms --extended (after shutting down zimbra), and started zimbra again
I still get the original error.
I'm desperate now folks, any pointers on how to go about getting the mta up and running?
I've looked for incident support for FOSS version, i'm willing to pay
, but not found anything, do zimbra even do this?Best Regards
