Bill Cole <[email protected]> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Resolution|--- |WORKSFORME Status|NEW |RESOLVED CC| |[email protected] --- Comment #1 from Bill Cole <[email protected]> --- When you run simply "dig updates.spamassassin.org" you are making a query for an A record. There is not now and never has been any A record for updates.spamassassin.org, nor is there any record of any type for the bare name 'updates.spamassassin.org.' The sa-update scrip[t does not make any query for the bare name 'updates.spamassassin.org.' The useful records for checking whether sa-update is failing due to DNS trouble are TXT records for the 'mirrors' and reverse version number subdomains of updates.spamassassin.org. So, if you are running SA v3.4.2: # host -t txt 2.4.3.updates.spamassassin.org 2.4.3.updates.spamassassin.org is an alias for 3.3.3.updates.spamassassin.org. 3.3.3.updates.spamassassin.org descriptive text "1850529" # host -t txt mirrors.updates.spamassassin.org mirrors.updates.spamassassin.org descriptive text "http://spamassassin.apache.org/updates/MIRRORED.BY"; I do not recognize the specific error you are seeing from sa-update, but you can see more details by running "sa-update -D" which will report the step-by-step tasks being done. Feel free to re-open this bug if that in formation does not reveal an y easily fixed problem. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
