Have you checked the directory for correct permissions? And there is a database there? Also the configuration option for bayes has been changed. Where it used to take a path, it now takes a filename. eg. used to be bayes_path /dir/bayes/ (would create db in that dir) and now is bayes_path /dir/bayes (created db in /dir with bayes_* as filename). -Sietse
