Topic: Amavisd not starting

==== Required information ====
- iRedMail version: 0.8.5
- Store mail accounts in which backend (LDAP/MySQL/PGSQL): MySQL
- Linux/BSD distribution name and version: CentOS 6.4
- Related log if you're reporting an issue:
====
I did search, but I'm still not exactly sure what the issue relates to.  It looks like the amavisd conf in /usr/sbin actually accounts for the versioning of perl, but I could be wrong and it's not even a perl issue.  Any help would be much appreciated.

Re: Amavisd not starting

I downloaded the rpms from here: http://www.iredmail.org/yum/rpms/6/ and tried to manually install them.
perl-MIME-tools already installed
perl-Net-Server has a newer version.

These 5 modules are shipped in two RPM packages (perl module): perl-MIME-Tools, perl-Net-Server. and you have them installed.

Could you please show me output of below commands?

# rpm -qi perl-MIME-Tools
# rpm -qi perl-Net-Server
# yum repolist

I just found this strange package: your perl-Net-Server package is built for RHEL/CentOS 5, not 6.
Both iRedMail and EPEL yum repositories provide perl-Net-Server-0.97-7.el6, and you have 0.99-1.el5. Please remove this package first, then install it with yum, then try to start Amavisd service:

# yum install perl-Net-Server

Re: Amavisd not starting

Removing the net server and putting the correct distro worked for the Net-Server, thanks.

This is what remains:

Re: Amavisd not starting

Does removing perl-MIME-tools then reinstall it with "yum install perl-MIME-tools" solve this issue?
