sa-update fails: permission denied on config directory
Hi,
I'm seeing an error when the cron job under Debian runs for SA 3.4.0.
I get this error from the cron job:
/etc/cron.daily/spamassassin:
config: no configuration text or files found! do you need to run 'sa-update'?
Timeout::_run: check: no loaded plugin implements 'check_main': cannot scan!
Check the necessary '.pre' files are in the config directory.
sa-update failed for unknown reasons
To investigate further, I ran su debian-spamd -c 'sa-update -D
--gpghomedir /var/lib/spamassassin/sa-update-keys':

Re: sa-update fails: permission denied on config directory
You have a permissions issue and there is a plugin needed to run things that by
default is enabled in per files. I would try disabling selinix and chmod 777
/etc/mail/spam assassin as a test.
