How can I fix the error: Can't connect to TCP port 10024 on 127.0.0.0 [Address already in use] when trying to start Amavis?

When trying to start Amavis you see this in the mail log:

Oct 02 03:20:15 condor3648 systemd[1]: Starting LSB: Starts amavisd-new mailfilter...
Oct 02 03:20:16 condor3648 amavis[1697]: starting. /usr/sbin/amavisd-new at condor3648.startdedicated.com amavisd-new-2.11.0 (20160426), Unicode aware, LC_ALL="C", LANG="en_US.UTF-8"

Try killing any stuck amavis and amavisd-milter processes:

pkill -u amavis

Now restart amavis and Amavisd-milter:

Centos/RHEL/CloudLinux/AlmaLinux

systemctl restart amavisd
systemctl restart amavisd-milter

Debian/Ubuntu

systemctl restart amavis
systemctl restart amavisd-milter
