I haven't found a real answer in the archives...

What is the cause of this error:

Cannot open bayes databases /etc/mail/spamassassin/bayes_* R/W: lock failed: File exists

And is there a solution?

The normal cause of that error is two SA processes trying to get at the bayes database at the same time.


If you're using procmail, use a lock in your procmail rules to prevent SA from being launched in parallel. Most of the rules in the archives should have this feature.
