Run "locate spamd", "locate PerMsgStatus.pm", and resolve the two.  there
should only be one set of SpamAssassin perl modules in your system, and
this almost definitely is not the case, as it's picking up modules that do
not match the rules.

Re: Can't locate object method

[Jeffrey Duncan]

Thanks,

>From my mail headers I think I am running 3.0.2 - also,

spamc -V
SpamAssassin Client version 3.0.2

I think what happened is that I did a yum update and it broke things.
I tried to rename the 5.8.5 PerMsgStatus and spamd didn't load. I
thinik I have some mix ups here. Should I uninstall SA and start from
scratch? COuld you give me a few pointers on how to get rid of it
gracefully?

Thanks for your help!

I'd assume you installed an older version of SA while you were using perl 5.8.5.
Later you upgraded to 5.8.6 and then installed 3.1.0 sometime afterward.

The 3.1.0 installation did not see the outdated site_perl directory, thus never
removed it.

I'd suggest blowing away the old copy entirely with rm -rf:

rm -rf /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.5/Mail/SpamAssassin/

then try your SA. If that doesn't fix things, rm -rf both of them and re-install
SA 3.1.0.


While you're at it double-check for duplicate spamd and spamc scripts. That's
less likely but it is possible that one is in /usr/bin and another is in
/usr/local/bin..


  

Re: Can't locate object method

[Jeffrey Duncan]

Thanks! Do I need to remove the 5.8.5 and 5.8.6
perl libraries too?

I'd first try to use "yum remove". At least this will gracefully remove as much
as yum understands.

After that I'd check and see if rpm -qa thinks there's still some kind of SA
package installed and I'd rpm -e any that are left over.

From there, do an updatedb and locate to see what's left over that couldn't be
removed by your package manager and wipe the leftovers out with rm. While this
might sound un-graceful, it's pretty much all you've got.

Suggested locate searches:
locate spamassassin
locate spamc
locate spamd
locate sa-learn
locate SpamAssassin

Make sure you hit pretty much everything in /usr. (ie: /usr/share/spamassassin/,
/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/*/SpamAssassin, /usr/bin/, /usr/local/bin, etc.)


After you've cleaned out all the SA residue, then try to re-install SA.




  

Help starting service

[Jeffrey Duncan]

I installed SA 3.1.0 using the CPAN install
Mail::SpamAssassin method and all went well with no errors. 

I cannot however get the service started. I am using Qmail from the
qmailrocks install. I have removed all my old SA 3.0.2 files and
started fresh. What can I do at this point to make the SA work with
qmail 

J

Re: Help starting service

[Jeffrey Duncan]

Hello.  I am running FC4.  I can start the service on the command line 
by just typing spamd and it all works fine.  Must be something very 
simple - been at this all day !


I have tried to start the service the following ways ...

# service spamassassin start
spamassassin: unrecognized service

and

# /etc/rc.d/init.d/spamassassin start
-bash: /etc/rc.d/init.d/spamassassin: No such file or directory

Thanks for the help.

Jeff

Hello Jeffrey,


what is your platform ?


You need to install sa-spamd daemon.

qmail-scanner  use spamc which then communicate with spamassassin daemon.

Re: Help starting service

I installed using cpan Mail::SpamAssassin as listed on SA site.  It's 
working, but it won't start as a service.


neither service is listed in that directory.

look in /etc/rc.d/init.d and see if theres a spamd service instead of a
spamassassin service.


Also, when you re-installed, how did you re-install?

I get the following after creating the script, chmod +x ..

I install the same way and I've got an /etc/rc.d/init.d/spamd file to
do the startup.  It's possible I may have written it myself.

Try putting the file listed below into /etc/rc.d/init.d/spamd (or
spamassassin, whichever you prefer).

Re: Help starting service

Great I am almost there!  A cpuple more things ...
How do I get it to start on boot?  The same way with chkconfig spamd on ?

and

The STOP fails ..

# service spamd stop
Stopping SpamAssassin daemon: cat: /var/run/spamd/spamd.pid: No such 
file or directory
kill: usage: kill [-s sigspec | -n signum | -sigspec] [pid | job]... or

Right... The following should be one line:

  /usr/bin/spamd -d -m 8 --max-conn-per-child=50 -r
/var/run/spamd/spamd.pid

That second line is actually the argument to '-r'.

The script tries to record the pid in /var/run/spamd/spamd.pid.  If
the directory doesn't exist (or isn't writable), it fails.

What you need to do is create the directory and chown it to the user
spamd runs as.

For example (assuming your spamd user is 'spamscan'):

mkdir /var/run/spamd
chown spamscan /var/run/spamd

The chkconfig information is already in the file.  To get it to run at
startup, simply do this:

chkconfig --add spamd

This will cause it to start in runlevels 2-5.  To change the runlevel
settings, take a look at the man page for chkconfig.  It's very easy
to use.
