Description of problem: A customer reported, that when starting postfix on RHEL 8, the following warning is displayed: restorecon[164623]: /usr/sbin/restorecon: lstat(/var/spool/postfix/pid/master.pid) failed: No such file or directory It seems that this is a side-effect of https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2028015 Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): postfix 3.5.8-4.el8 How reproducible: always Steps to Reproduce: 1. install postfix 2. start postfix 3. check journalctl for warning: journalctl | grep master.pid Actual results: A warning is shown for master.pid missing Expected results: No warning should be shown, as everything is working as expected and the master.pid should not be there at this stage during start.
This is fixed by dropping the filename from the following line in postfix.service: ExecStartPre=-/usr/sbin/restorecon -R /var/spool/postfix/pid
