Hi,
I just switched my setup from spamassassin to spamd/spamc, started spamd with OPTIONS="-d -c -a -D" in my /etc/sysconfig/spamd file. Redhat 8 spamd 2.55 I seem to have a permissions problem pointed out in /var/log/maillog: --------- from log: Sep 22 13:50:29 gizmo spamd[8211]: server started on port 783 (running version 2.55) ... ... Sep 22 14:03:29 gizmo spamd[8440]: debug: using "/root/.spamassassin" for user state dir Sep 22 14:03:29 gizmo spamd[8440]: debug: mkdir /root/.spamassassin failed: mkdir /root/.spamassassin: Permission denied at /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.0/Mail/SpamAssassin.pm line 1181 Sep 22 14:03:29 gizmo spamd[8440]: debug: open of AWL file failed: lock: 8440 cannot create tmp lockfile /root/.spamassassin/auto-whitelist.lock.gizmo.heggood.com.8440 for /root/.spamassassin/auto-whitelist.lock: Permission denied --------- current permissions: /root drwxr-x--- 81 root root 12288 Sep 22 14:03 /root /root/.spamassassin drwx------ 2 root root 4096 Sep 22 14:07 /root/.spamassassin --------- contents: /root/.spamassassin: total 4 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1218 Sep 22 14:03 user_prefs As an experiment, I moved /root/.spamassassin to /root/spamassassin.bku Next time I ran spamc, a new .spamassassin was created along with a user_prefs file. So at least spamd is comfortable with the permissions. I suspect that something in SpamAssassin.pm is not. Any ideas? -steve- ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek Welcome to geek heaven. http://thinkgeek.com/sf _______________________________________________ Spamassassin-talk mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/spamassassin-talk
