Hello -
I am running an older version of SA (2.51). I just installed an updated to version 0.2.0 of spamass-milter. The intent of this change is to offload the spamd processing to another box. This config works okay with the new milter. But now, I cannot start spamd on the original box. I would like to use this as fall-back in case the offload doesn't respond - milter 0.2.0 has the ability to do this, but spamd isn't running locally. Here is the end of the Debug output to starting spamd: <debug output> [all checks are performed - copious output at: http://www.tulane.edu/~ccrowley/spamd_startup_problem.txt server started on port 783 server pid: 7625 connect: Permission denied (SOCK_DGRAM after trying SOCK_STREAM) at /usr/local/bin/spamd line 629 <end debug output> </usr/local/bin/spamd excerpt> 623 sub logmsg 624 { 625 my $old = $SIG{'PIPE'}; 626 $SIG{'PIPE'} = sub { $main::SIGPIPE_RECEIVED++; }; 627 628 openlog('spamd','cons,pid',$log_facility); 629 syslog('info',"@_"); 630 if ($opt{'debug'}) { warn "logmsg: @_\n"; } 631 632 if ($main::SIGPIPE_RECEIVED) { 633 # SIGPIPE recieved when writing to syslog - this has been 634 # found to occur with syslog-ng after syslog-ng restarts. 635 # Close and reopen the log handle, then try again. 636 637 closelog(); 638 openlog('spamd','cons,pid',$log_facility); 639 syslog('info',"@_"); 640 641 # now report what happend 642 my $msg = "SIGPIPE received - reopening log socket"; 643 if ($opt{'debug'}) { warn "logmsg: $msg\n"; } 644 syslog('warning', $msg); <end /usr/local/bin/spamd> Obviously something was changed by the install of the new milter. /var/run/sendmail looks the same (I checked against a clone of the original install). I stopped the new milter, and started the old one, but I still have the same problem. Based on the code in /usr/local/bin/spamd, I changed the permissions on /var/log/maillog, but that had no affect. If I start as root, then I get errors about multiple SIGPIPE: </usr/local/bin/spamd -D> logmsg: connection from localhost [ 127.0.0.1 ] at port 2078 logmsg: SIGPIPE received - reopening log socket logging failure: multiple SIGPIPEs received <end /usr/local/bin/spamd -D> Suggestions?
