Hi all,
I just tried to install Spamassassin for my mail account at my ISP (running
some kind of linux, I believe it's RedHat). Although I followed the hints
given on this list and in the README file for installing Spamassassin without
root rights the installation failed badly.
Here are my steps:
1) unzipped all in directory ~/temp/Mail-SpamAssassin-2.11
No problems here ;-)
2) Makefile:
nash:~/temp/Mail-SpamAssassin-2.11$ perl Makefile.PL
PREFIX=/home/nico/temp/Mail-SpamAssassin-2.11
Checking if your kit is complete...
Looks good
Writing Makefile for Mail::SpamAssassin
3) make
Here is a part of the output:
for f in spamassassin spamd/spamc.pod spamd/spamd spamproxy/spamproxyd
lib/Mail/SpamAssassin.pm lib/Mail/SpamAssassin/Conf.pm
lib/Mail/SpamAssassin/PerMsgStatus.pm lib/Mail/SpamAssassin/PersistentAddrList.pm
lib/Mail/SpamAssassin/SMTP/SmartHost.pm ; do \
pod2html $f > doc/`echo $f | perl -pe \
's/(lib|spamd)\///; s/\//_/g; s/\.(pod|pm)//;'`.html ; \
pod2text $f > doc/`echo $f | perl -pe \
's/(lib|spamd)\///; s/\//_/g; s/\.(pod|pm)//;'`.txt ; \
done

4) make install
/bin/sh:
/home/nico/temp/Mail-SpamAssassin-2.11/lib/perl5/5.00503/i386-linux/perllocal.pod: No
such file or directory
make: [doc_site_install] Error 1 (ignored)
Appending installation info to
/home/nico/temp/Mail-SpamAssassin-2.11/lib/perl5/5.00503/i386-linux/perllocal.pod
mkdir -p /etc/mail/spamassassin
mkdir: cannot chdir to directory, /etc/mail: Permission denied
make: *** [/etc/mail/spamassassin] Error 1
5) Without surprise I noticed that spamassassin was not really happy when
started:
opendir(./../../..): Permission denied at /usr/lib/perl5/5.00503/FindBin.pm line 143
Has anyone any idea how to complete the installation without fighting it out
with the support of my ISP? Thanks a lot!!
Bye,
Frank
