You need to find out why its failing to start.

The log files in /var/log/exim would be a start.

Try this:

pkg_add -r "http://files.directadmin.com/services/freebsd6.0/da_exim-4.72-1.tgz"

Do you run dovecot? You might need to patch it for dovecot.

Hi,

I'm trying to install DA on Freebsd 8.x 64-bit since yesterday and I finished (or at least thought so), I stumbled on the same issue with exim.

However, running it gives me this error:

#exim
/libexec/ld-elf.so.1: Undefined symbol "PL_stack_max" referenced from COPY relocation in /usr/sbin/exim

Quite probably related to Perl, as some sources suggest. I've recompiled Perl, turned off threading, but still getting this error with exim provided with DA.
When installed from ports, exim works like a dream, so wondering if we can use the one installed from ports?

Upgrading exim to 4.73 (using http://help.directadmin.com/item.php?id=125 ) fixed the issue for me.
