hello,

1. why when i run /scripts/eximup --force OR /scripts/eximup in ssh it returns nothing?

instead of starting to reinstall exim, it just ends like below:

[email protected]#/scripts/eximup --force
[email protected]#

other scripts works fine and upcp --force doesn't help

2. why when i pico /etc/exim.conf and edit something but when i want to save it says:

Could not open file for writing: Permission denied

i check other file under /etc can be edit & save without problem except for this one.

hope someone can help.

thank you

make sure the /etc/exim/conf file has got the permission 644. Also check if the exim.conf file is having attribute bit set. Check

lsattr /etc/exim.conf

if yes, remove it using
chattr -ia /etc/exim.conf
