Re: Errors running SpamAssassin
I'd run "sh -x /etc/cron.daily/spamassassin" to see what command in that file failed. I assume it is the sa-compile command. I got some more results. Here are the steps I made: 1. Remove everything from /var/lib/spamassassin 2. Reinstall spamassassin package 3. Recreate /var/lib/spamassassin/compiled directory with debian-spamd:debian-spamd ownership 4. Run sudo sh -x /etc/cron.daily/spamassassin Here is the output I collected: + CRON=0 + test -f /etc/default/spamassassin + . /etc/default/spamassassin + SPAMD_HOME=/run/spamd/ + OPTIONS=--create-prefs --max-children 5 --helper-home-dir /run/spamd/ --listen /run/spamd/spamd.sock --username debian-spamd -s spamd --allow-tell --timeout-child=30 + PIDFILE=/run/spamd/spamd.pid + NICE=--nicelevel 15 + CRON=1 + test -x /usr/bin/sa-update + test -x /etc/init.d/spamassassin + command -v gpg + [ 1 = 0 ] + [ ! -t 0 ] + umask 022 + env -i LANG=en_GB.UTF-8 PATH=/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin http_proxy= start-stop-daemon --chuid debian-spamd:debian-spamd --start --exec /usr/bin/sa-update -- --gpghomedir /var/lib/spamassassin/sa-update-keys + env -i LANG=en_GB.UTF-8 PATH=/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin start-stop-daemon --chuid debian-spamd:debian-spamd --start --exec /usr/bin/spamassassin -- --lint + do_compile + [ -x /usr/bin/re2c -a -x /usr/bin/sa-compile ] + env -i LANG=en_GB.UTF-8 PATH=/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin start-stop-daemon --chuid debian-spamd:debian-spamd --start --exec /usr/bin/sa-compile -- --quiet chmod: cannot access 'body_0.bs': No such file or directory make: *** [Makefile:465: body_0.bs] Error 1 command 'make PREFIX=/tmp/.spamassassin11033rJy6vLtmp/ignored INSTALLSITEARCH=/var/lib/spamassassin/compiled/5.032/3.004006 >>/tmp/.spamassassin11033rJy6vLtmp/log' failed: exit 2 + runuser -u debian-spamd -- chmod -R go-w,go+rX /var/lib/spamassassin/compiled + reload + which invoke-rc.d + invoke-rc.d --quiet spamassassin status + invoke-rc.d spamassassin reload + [ -d /etc/spamassassin/sa-update-hooks.d ] + run-parts --lsbsysinit /etc/spamassassin/sa-update-hooks.d The error in the middle is the one reported daily through the run of the cron job.

Re: Errors running SpamAssassin
Thanks for your help Ian, I'd run "sh -x /etc/cron.daily/spamassassin" to see what command in that file failed. I assume it is the sa-compile command. Running /etc/cron.daily/spamassassin manually, either with "-x" provided to the shell or simply by running it, letting the shebang do the job, doesn't yield any error. It seems the environment might not exactly be the same when running through the cron job, but I can't put my finger on it. Bernard

I got SpamAssassin on my server for a long time, and from time to time it was reporting errors now and then from the daily scheduled task. However, for the past week, the error is now constant.

My setup is : * postfix -> spamd (through spamc) -> dovecot on reception * dovecot's antispam plugin -> spamd (through spamc) on mail directory change * sa-learn for training All components ar invoked with the same debian-spamd user (which own /var/lib/spamassassin -sub-directory and files).

The spamassassin -D invocation as filtered before also popped up something related: dbg: bayes: not available for scanning, only 23 spam(s) in bayes DB < 200 I got no-one to blacklist, I was merely testing a custom-made 'Spam test' message which seems to be useless (and maybe harmful in the end?). I'll wait to be an advanced user w/ SA before attempting to black/whitelist senders or write rules, unless events push me into doing it ofc. So far, all received messages have SpamAssassin headers, meaning the delivery works and a small debug session on the antispam plugin seems to show it reacts properly and sends commands to spamc correctly (hoping the SA client + daemon handle/receive everything correctly). All in all, I require more spam to trigger the bayesian filter. Only then I will be able to assert it being running properly or not it seems. At least it is loaded. I thought the database (updated daily if it works) would provide it with a kickstarted. I was probably mixing-up separate components. Thus I sit hanging tight, hoping for the best... Thanks for your help. --- Bernard

SpamAssassin score
Hello, Using SpamAssassin, I am trying to make it learn 'bad' messages. Experimenting with the learning process, I do not seem to be able to reach a successful outcome: $ spamc --username=debian-spamd --socket=/run/spamd/spamd.sock --learntype=spam < spamassassin/junktestmail Message was already un/learned $ spamc --username=debian-spamd --socket=/run/spamd/spamd.sock -c < spamassassin/junktestmail &&hideme 3.7/5.0 $ spamc --username=debian-spamd --socket=/run/spamd/spamd.sock --learntype=ham < spamassassin/junktestmail Message successfully un/learned $ spamc --username=debian-spamd --socket=/run/spamd/spamd.sock --learntype=ham < spamassassin/junktestmail Message was already un/learned $ hideprev $ spamc --username=debian-spamd --socket=/run/spamd/spamd.sock -c < spamassassin/junktestmail &&hideme 3.7/5.0 $ spamc --username=debian-spamd --socket=/run/spamd/spamd.sock --learntype=spam < spamassassin/junktestmail Message successfully un/learned $ spamc --username=debian-spamd --socket=/run/spamd/spamd.sock --learntype=spam < spamassassin/junktestmail Message was already un/learned 1. How come the same message being classified either as spam/ham returns the same score? I would expect a message learnt as 'spam' to get a score at least equal to the spam score threshold 2. Even though the message was correctly learnt as spam before and after the test, receiving this email message is still not tagged as spam: X-Spam-Checker-Version: SpamAssassin 3.4.0 (2014-02-07) on *** X-Spam-Level: ** X-Spam-Status: No, score=2.1 required=5.0 tests=MISSING_HEADERS,SPF_FAIL, SPF_HELO_FAIL autolearn=no autolearn_force=no version=3.4.0 Am I missing something? --- Bernard
