Hello, I saw bits and pieces of related errors in the archives, but I did not see anything resembling resolution. I am seeing the following error scrolling my console quite regularly. I'm not sure what causes it, but am reasonably sure it's not a good thing. This error message (the one I cut and pasted) was actually generated when I ran sa-learn --rebuild. But it seems to happen at other times, too. Cannot open bayes_path /home/spamc/.spamassassin/bayes R/W: File exists
Can anybody shed some light on what might be causing this error and how I can clear it up? Help is greatly appreciated! Some more information to assist. I am running spamd under the user "spamc". I receive the above error message whether or not /home/spamc/.spamassassin/bayes exists as a file or directory, or if it doesn't exist at all. I am starting spamd with the following command: /usr/bin/spamd -L -x -q -u spamc Clients are being called with the following: /usr/bin/spamc -f -u [EMAIL PROTECTED] I have one config file, which is /etc/mail/spamassassin/local.cf, and it contains (changes/suggestions welcomed, this is ad hoc with no real basis of experience; in particular, is defang_mime used anymore?): # Enable user prefs in vpopmail db user_scores_dsn DBI:mysql:vpopmail:mailsql user_scores_sql_username USERNAME user_scores_sql_password PASSWORD user_scores_sql_table TABLE # The following are the default settings for SA. required_hits 4 rewrite_subject 0 use_terse_report 1 defang_mime 0 use_bayes 1 auto_learn 1 ok_languages all ok_locales all skip_rbl_checks 1 use_dcc 1 # # Global whitelist, blacklist, etc. whitelist_from [EMAIL PROTECTED] whitelist_from [EMAIL PROTECTED] whitelist_from [EMAIL PROTECTED] # # Recommended settings for bayes bayes_path /home/spamc/.spamassassin/bayes bayes_expiry_min_db_size 500000 bayes_expiry_scan_count 999999 # # Adjust score to be more SquirrelMail-friendly. score USER_AGENT -0.7 --- Benjamin Tomhave, CISSP Senior Systems Engineer [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sofast Communications www.sofast.net ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email sponsored by: Parasoft Error proof Web apps, automate testing & more.
