Im trying to move my Wordpress site from a managed VPS to my OVH dedicated machine and im in the middle of trying to install WP. However following these instructions I get this error:

Setting up exim4-daemon-light (4.80-7+deb7u1) ... [....] Starting MTA:2015-07-04 22:33:53 Exim configuration error in line 38 of /var/lib/exim4/config.autogenerated.tmp: main option "acl_smtp_mime" unknown Invalid new configfile /var/lib/exim4/config.autogenerated.tmp, not installing /var/lib/exim4/config.autogenerated.tmp to /var/lib/exim4/config.autogenerated invoke-rc.d: initscript exim4, action "start" failed. dpkg: error processing exim4-daemon-light (--configure): subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1 Errors were encountered while processing: exim4-daemon-light E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

I've found a few relevant questions but they didn't solve my problem.

I am running Wheezy if that helps.

apt-get install exim4-daemon-heavy

That's what fixed it for me, because simply commenting the line out does not help when reinstalling exim4, as the file get's simply regenerated and the uncommenting overwritte.

A bit late but maybe usefull for someone else.

Quick fix: comment this line out using a # sign, and then re-run your command. I do not suppose you need this option at all, but if you do, you might want to fiddle with it later on.
