Almost all of the email we process are forwarders. It doesn't really

our local university.
you have apparently missed what I said before, so I repeat:
you said you use amavis. amavis daemon runs (usually) under amavis user.
Therefore, all mails processed by amavis use amavis' bayes database stored
in amavis home directory.
move the database to amavis' home (and chown it to the amavis user):
# ls -la ~amavis/.spamassassin/
total 41368
drwx------ 2 amavis amavis 4096 May 28 16:59 .
drwxr-x--- 7 amavis amavis 4096 May 28 06:50 ..
-rw------- 1 amavis amavis 89136 May 28 17:01 bayes_journal
-rw------- 1 amavis amavis 21065728 May 28 16:59 bayes_seen
-rw------- 1 amavis amavis 40144896 May 28 16:59 bayes_toks
-rw-r--r-- 1 amavis amavis 2304 May 5 12:41 user_prefs
Then remove global setting of bayes database in /etc/spamassassin/local.cf
and your problem will most probably to away.

This is your problem imho.
if you use amavis, you need no bayes database, but amavis users',
i guess in /var/lib/amavis/.spamassassin/

Recently, we've been setting up Bayesian learning on our
existing Amavis with Spamassassin setup on Ubuntu 18.04
(Spamassassin 3.4.2-0ubuntu0.18.04.3 and Amavis

seeded with an aggregation of spam and ham we've received,
then enabling autolearn to further train the set. As
Spamassassin runs inside Amavis, the Bayes database files are
owned by the amavis user. This setup works fine, and results
for Bayes are great and growing in accuracy by autolearning.
What was somewhat confusing is that we noticed our daily
cronjob running sa-update and sa-compile was giving us an
error concerning permissions:
May 25 00:31:25.488 [8381] warn: bayes: cannot write to
/var/lib/spamassassin/bayes_db/bayes_journal, bayes db update

bayes: cannot write to

I wonder where did these files come from.
did you sety bayes_path in /etc/spamassassin/ ?
