Error in installation after exim install

[brock9005]

Exim configuration error in line 1 of /etc/exim.srs.conf

We were notified about the new Patch of exim, since we were still using an older version.

After going through the installation steps mentioned on this page: https://help.directadmin.com/item.php?id=125

We had the following error;

Exim configuration error in line 1 of /etc/exim.srs.conf

Exim cant be restarted because of this error.

* exim.service - Exim Mail Transport Agent

I could find some information about this error, but the exim builds via custom builds failed as well.

Maybe you´re missing ExtUtils::Embed

yum install perl-ExtUtils-Embed

Thanks for responding so quickly, it seems i have it installed

Package perl-ExtUtils-Embed-1.30-292.el7.noarch already installed and latest version

You could try to comment out the first line in /etc/exim.srs.conf and then start Exim. Then probably an error will occure. What error do you get? (p.s. don´t forget after doning that to uncomment the first line).

My problem was in selecting default server. Changed the server and it worked instantly

We changed the download server and it installed instantly.

Specify a little more!

Are you using the manual option or the CustomBuild 2.0 to compile? What steps do you follow and what OS does your server use?

Regards.
