Public bug reported: Hello there
I'm running Spamassassin here on Ubuntu 16.10 together with Monit (and Postfix of course). Each time server restarts, Monit says first that the spamd process is not running (no PID) but in three minutes it says it's running. There is the /etc/init.d/spamassassin file that boots Spamassassin on start. But somehow it does not seem to get executed asap but 3 mins later. No idea why. The PID under /var/run/spamassassin.pid is owned by root and is monitored under Monit with these configs: # (hidden) @ (hidden) in /etc/monit/conf.d [14:00:04] C:1 $ cat spamassassin check process spamd with pidfile /var/run/spamassassin.pid group mail start program = "/etc/init.d/spamassassin start" with timeout 180 seconds stop program = "/etc/init.d/spamassassin stop" if 5 restarts within 5 cycles then timeout if cpu usage > 79% for 5 cycles then alert if mem usage > 79% for 5 cycles then alert depends on spamd_bin depends on spamd_rc check file spamd_rc with path /etc/init.d/spamassassin group mail if failed checksum then unmonitor if failed permission 755 then unmonitor if failed uid root then unmonitor if failed gid root then unmonitor check file spamd_bin with path /usr/sbin/spamd group mail if failed checksum then unmonitor if failed permission 755 then unmonitor if failed uid root then unmonitor if failed gid root then unmonitor Not sure what the problem is here. Could be one of these: - a bug in /etc/init.d/spamassassin? - a bad config in the above monit config - something in postfix or another lib blocking spamassassin No idea how to investigate. And there is no spamassassin log showing how it starts up.
