I am starting over with a clean install of SA on an AWS Linux2 EC2. I'm
am struggling with getting Bayes set up correctly. I have a very old
bayes_toks file from a Jam Windows install from about 4 years ago. I
created a userId for spamd, and I put the bayes_toks file in
/home/spamd/bayes. I set the bayes_path in local.cf to
/home/spamd/bayes/bayes. I changed the file owner to spamd:spamd. I
get the error message:
cannot open bayes databases /home/spamd/bayes/bayes_* R/O: tie failed
I tried running the Spamassassin from the command line as sudo, and get
the same error. So I don't think it's a permissions issue.
So I moved the file out of the folder and now get:
no dbs present, cannot tie DB R/O: /home/spamd/bayes/bayes_toks
So in the first case it finds the file but can't open it. I found some
posts on forums that suggested there's a possibility the file is so old
the format is obsolete. Fine with me. At this point, I just want to
start clean. But I can't find a way to start using bayes from scratch
with no toks file starting off. I even did another clean install on a
separate ec2 to see if SA would create an initial toks file. But I
couldn't find one.
My old toks file is probably of marginal value now anyway. I just need
to know where to find a brand new toks file to put into my bayes_path
folder so it can start building up the ham/spam file and start
contributing to my SA scores.
Where do I find a starter toks file?
Thx
