Issues after upgrade Debian from sarge to etch
Hello list! I'm new here so please be nice to me :) Since I upgraded my box to debian etch I have the same errors day by day. I'm running SpamAssassin version 3.2.0 running on Perl version 5.8.8 (standard etch-package) with amavisd-new-2.4.2 (20060627) (also etch-pack). There is a cronjob bundled with amavis which invokes 'spamassassin --lint' once in a while. Command: test -e /usr/sbin/amavisd-new-cronjob /usr/sbin/amavisd-new-cronjob sa-sync The cronjob fails with this message(s): +++ snip plugin: failed to parse plugin (from @INC): Bareword Mail::SpamAssassin::Constants::CHARSETS_LIKELY_TO_FP_AS_CAPS not allowed while strict subs in use at /usr/local/share/perl/5.8.8/Mail/SpamAssassin/Plugin/HeaderEval.pm line 965.

Although spamassassin and amavis work fine together. Can anyone help me out? Thanks in advance, Stefan signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature
Re: Issues after upgrade Debian from sarge to etch [SOLVED]
Hello! Hmm... I know you said standard Etch packages but those versions do not match the versions in Etch. They match the versions in Testing. Therefore I conclude that you are actually running Debian testing. Didn't think so but obviously I must mess things up while experimenting with amavisd-new (and spamassassin plugins). For various reasons I recommend Debian Stable (currently Etch) or Debian Unstable (always named Sid). I can't recommend Testing for production use. I know and I agree - my sources.list is only linked to etch - but maybe there was a short time when I had testing in it. Please check and see if you have SA installed multiple different ways, by package and by direct installation (e.g. CPAN). If you have multiple versions of SpamAssassin installed I suggest removing all of the ones that you are not using. Bob, you made my day - thank you! After checking my installation with your hints I could cleanup some cpan-installed modules and replaced the testing-version with the version from the etch repository. Finally I got rid of this error messages. Thank you all for your help! Stefan signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature
