bayes_path /usr/local/amavis/.spamassassin/bayes bayes_file_mode 0770
Guess that should really be 0660. I'm not sure I've ever done a --rebuild manually, if it has done it automatically the files are still owned by the amavisd user. My first guess would be that some script is doing something manually to the database (copying it perhaps without -a?).

I run sa-learn as root using SA 2.55 and 2.6 on two redhat systems. Both systems run spamd and call spamc from procmail with -u user1 (or user2). Because there are only two users, each system has a common bayes database with file access permitted to both users.
Occasionally, I have discovered that the ownership of one of the bayes files has been changed from spamd.spamd to root.root. This change renders my bayes database unreachable because I run spamd as user "spamd".
I can't find a workaround in the docs. Is there one, or do I have to change the ownership somehow?
Revisiting your message, you say: "I run sa-learn as root" So you may be doing it to yourself.
When you run sa-learn it rebuilds the database as part of its operation unless you add the option "--no-rebuild". Sometimes when rebuilding the database it creates a new bayes_toks file rather than just updating the existing one. If that happens when you (root) are running it, the new file is owned by root.
So I see a few possible workarounds: 1) always run sa-learn as "spamd" not root 2) always give sa-learn the --no-rebuild option and let spamd do the rebuild 3) always check the bayes file ownership after a sa-learn run.
