           Summary: spamd problem possibly caused by child processing
                    timeout
           Product: Spamassassin
           Version: 3.2.3
          Platform: HP
        OS/Version: other
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P5
         Component: spamc/spamd
        AssignedTo: [email protected]
        ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]


We have the 2 servers using Suse Linux Enterprise 10, spamassassin 3.2.3, perl 
5.8.8. Bayes’s base is located on remote mysql server (v. 5.0.27).
It was noticed that when the server becomes busy and spamassassin begins
to expire old tokens , spamassassin was parsing mail queue very slowly, though 
prefork child states show  that the spamd processes exist. 

The log file shows:
bayes: expire_old_tokens: child processing timeout at /usr/bin/spamd 
line 1246, <$tmpfile> line 1
spamd processes, for example:
spamd[13379]: rules: failed to run BAYES_99 test, skipping:
spamd[13379]:  (child processing timeout at /usr/bin/spamd line 1246, 
<GEN235> line 63.
spamd[13379]: )
spamd[13382]: Argument "M-IM-~M-{M-`s" isn't numeric in addition (+) at 
/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8/Mail/SpamAssassin/Bayes.pm line 1348, 
<$tmpfile> line 1.
spamd[13390]: Argument "M-^[=AM-^\^G" isn't numeric in addition (+) at 
/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8/Mail/SpamAssassin/Bayes.pm line 1348, 
<$tmpfile> line 1.
spamd[13318]: spamd: handled cleanup of child pid 13385 due to SIGCHLD
spamd[13318]: spamd: handled cleanup of child pid 13387 due to SIGCHLD

After spamassassin had restarted his processes it continued to work normally 
but some messages were lost during this incident.
