I let Watchdog control SpamAssassin 2.41 on my OS X 10.2.1 server, from watchdog.conf:
spamd:respawn:/usr/bin/spamd -x -u daemon #load spamd When the computer boots it launches Watchdog last, from /System/Library/StartupItems/Watchdog/StartupParameters.plist: Requires = ("DirectoryServices", "Disks", "Super Server", "Resolver", "Network"); Yet spamd fails due to some MX lookup problem, from /var/log/mail.log: Oct 6 05:29:53 admins-Computer spamd[426]: MX lookup died: Illegal division by zero at /Library/Perl/Net/DNS/Resolver.pm line 818. Bad file descriptor If I then manually kill and then start watchdog it functions without problem and launches and respawns spamd. It seems some system is not ready or something is configured wrong so that SpamAssassin can't launch during the Systemstarter process. Does anyone have any ideas? /Ian ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek Welcome to geek heaven. http://thinkgeek.com/sf _______________________________________________ Spamassassin-talk mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/spamassassin-talk
