Bug#864810: spamassassin: fails to initialize on IPv6 and then breaks
Hi Noah, > It's worse than that. The spamassassin.service unit that we're shipping > doesn't even have a dependency on the network at all. The improvements Umpf, indeed, so my server was lucky that IPv4 was fast up and running. > Specifically, what's missing is "After=syslog.target network.target" Thanks, I have added that manually to the service file for now, just to make sure that the next reboot doesn't create problems.

The spamassassin.service unit that we're shipping doesn't even have a dependency on the network at all. The improvements to the unit file were committed to git some time ago, but never made it into an upload. Specifically, what's missing is "After=syslog.target network.target" This will be fixed in unstable shortly, and in an update to stable ASAP. > Also, it seems that the /etc/default/spamassassin file is not used. That does not seem to be the case: root@stretch:~# grep OPTIONS /etc/default/spamassassin OPTIONS="--create-prefs --max-children 5 --helper-home-dir --min-children 7 --timeout-child=360" root@stretch:~# ps aux|grep spamassassin root 493 4.8 8.2 162060 83924 ?Ss 17:38 0:00 /usr/sbin/spamd -d --pidfile=/var/run/spamassassin.pid --create-prefs --max-children 5 --helper-home-dir --min-children 7 --timeout-child=360 Thanks for your report. noah

Package: spamassassin Version: 3.4.1-6 Severity: important Dear Maintainer, * What led up to the situation? normal reboot * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or ineffective)? nothing, normal reboot * What was the outcome of this action? spamd cannot initialize an ipv6 socket: Jun 15 04:14:15 kimsufi spamd[427]: spamd: created IO::Socket::IP socket on [127.0.0.1]:783 Jun 15 04:14:15 kimsufi spamd[427]: spamd: could not create IO::Socket::IP socket on [::1]:783: Invalid argument Jun 15 04:14:15 kimsufi kernel: [ 13.418338] IPv6: ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): eth0: link is not ready But afterwards spamc tries to connect via IPv6 and gives up. * What outcome did you expect instead? Working startup on both ipv4 and ipv6 It seems that the systemctl service files do not require a working ipv6 setup Also, it seems that the /etc/default/spamassassin file is not used.
