Plural? Only "public" is supposed to be a directory.

What about the "qmgr" and "pickup" sockets under that directory?
They are created by the Postfix master daemon, following instructions
in master.cf; the same file that tells the Postfix master daemon
to send wakeup probes to those sockets.

What operating system is this? Some (Linux) systems are quite sloppy
in their error returns.

Have you tried:

    postfix -c config_directory set-permissions

in case the access permissions are incorrect? This is a
Postfix 2.1 feature.

Given that you have three Postfix instances of which two work,
try reducing the broken one to just the minimal main.cf changes
from the default Postfix main.cf file: different queue_directory,
and all files kept in a separate config_directory, of course.
