I try to reverse proxy all the incoming email traffic to a mailcow-dockerized solution in my debian server via haproxy:
The haproxy.cfg
configuration is:
global
log /dev/log local0
log /dev/log local1 notice
chroot /var/lib/haproxy
stats socket /run/haproxy/admin.sock mode 660 level admin
stats timeout 30s
user haproxy
group haproxy
daemon

But I get the following error:

Do you fellows have an idea how to fix the error?
