but when trying to send mail , i am getting permission denied error in maillog as Jun 12 23:43:25 leblanc1 local[13255]: fatal: execvp /usr/local/bin/run_email2trac: Permission denied Jun 12 23:43:25 leblanc1 postfix/local[13248]: 33C7D2423C7: to=<leblanc-prototype@…>, relay=local, delay=0.01, delays=0/0/0/0, dsn=4.3.0, status=deferred (temporary failure.

The default installation is already: /usr/local

So there is no need to specify this on the command line. The utilities/binaries are now installed in the wrong location. See output: /bin/bin/run_email2trac instead of /usr/local/bin/run_email2trac

Note: The sysconfdir needs a full path. The same is true for exec_prefix.

I executed as ./configure --sysconfdir=/usr/local/etc --with-mta_user=nobody --with-trac_user=www-data, and also tried with ./configure --sysconfdir=/usr/local/etc --with-mta_user=root --with-trac_user=george, but both cases when mail is send to a leblanc-prototype@… in postfix (leblanc-prototype: "|/usr/local/bin/run_email2trac --project=/usr/trac/leblanc --ticket_prefix=test), I am getting permission denied error. ) , I am getting same error. The trac is running on tomcat and users are configured using .htpasswd

There are 2 ways to setup email2trac for postfix:

• ​https://subtrac.sara.nl/oss/email2trac/wiki/Email2tracMta

Maybe your postfix installation does not allow execution for binaries in /usr/local/bin. And what are the permissions for run_email2trac:

• ls -l /usr/local/bin/run_email2trac

Did you run it with a test email:

• ​https://subtrac.sara.nl/oss/email2trac/wiki/Email2tracMta#TestSetup

If this works then is definitely a postfix setup problem

Permissions are below ---s--x--x. 1 root root 8607 Jun 13 19:27 run_email2trac I changed to chmod 777,but still same permission problem, I tried email2trac --project=tracproj < msg.txt, I got a ticket created in trac,but when mail sent, permission problem comes up

Ok it is a postfix setup problem. Did you tried the second method without using run_email2trax? Or installing run_email2trac in /usr/bin. As said maybe postfix does not allow execution of binaries from /usr/local/bin

Tried from usr/bin, but still same error - Jun 15 02:39:57 leblanc1 local[32231]: fatal: execvp /usr/bin/run_email2trac: Permission denied Jun 15 02:39:57 leblanc1 postfix/local[32051]: 490B42427D9: to=<leblanc-prototype@…>, relay=local, delay=0, delays=0/0/0/0, dsn=4.3.0, status=deferred (temporary failure. Command output: local: fatal: execvp /usr/bin/run_email2trac: Permission denied ) Can you tell how to try second method without using run_email2trac,I didn't understood that.

Just to make sure. What kind of OS are you running and which release? I another thing is are the path to /usr/bin or /usr/local/bin readable by everybody 755: I mean every directory!

OS is RHEL 6 and the dir is readable.
