Alias database error

I am running Postfix 2.3 on FreeBSd 6.1 everytime I use the postalias command I get this error message that says no mapping in /etc/mail/mailer.conf
hash database is installed and that is what is uncommented out in my main.cf file in the mailer.conf file everthing is pointing /usr/local/sbin/sendmail which is correct for postfix.
I added the lines hostat and purgestat to the mailer.conf file but that didn't change anything. I tried to recreate a new mailer.conf file, but that didn't work either. I don't know what else to try. The newaliases commands gives me the same error also
postalias /etc/mail/aliases didn't work
usr/local/sbin/postalias /etc/mail.aliases didn't work
newaliases command didn't work either
I did postconf -m it shows the hash database is installed
I tried postalias hash:/etc/mail/aliases same error

NAME
error - Postfix error mailer SYNOPSIS
error [generic Postfix daemon options] DESCRIPTION
The Postfix error mailer processes message delivery requests from the queue manager. Each request specifies a queue file, a sender address, a domain or host name that is treated as the reason for non-delivery, and recipient information. This program expects to be run from the master(8) process manager. The error mailer client forces all recipients to bounce, using the domain or host information as the reason for non-delivery, updates the queue file and marks recipients as finished, or it informs the queue manager that delivery should be tried again at a later time. Delivery problem reports are sent to the bounce(8) or defer(8) daemon as appropriate. SECURITY
The error mailer is not security-sensitive. It does not talk to the network, and can be run chrooted at fixed low privilege. STANDARDS
None. DIAGNOSTICS
Problems and transactions are logged to syslogd(8). Depending on the setting of the notify_classes parameter, the postmaster is notified of bounces and of other trouble. BUGS
CONFIGURATION PARAMETERS
The following main.cf parameters are especially relevant to this program. See the Postfix main.cf file for syntax details and for default values. Use the postfix reload command after a configuration change. Miscellaneous bounce_notice_recipient Postmaster for bounce error notices. notify_classes When this parameter includes the bounce class, send mail to the postmaster with with the headers of the bounced mail.
