Hello again! Sorry to follow up on myself, I guess it was a bad idea to post such a long message, and at the end say that I was going on vacation. I'm back now, and the problem has by no means disappeared. I would be very grateful if someone could have a look. I'll try to summarize, the previous message is in the archives at http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/spamassassin-users/200607.mbox/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
So, what I wrote was that: > The main symptom is that quite a lot of email gets just > this: X-Spam-Status: No, hits= required= > tests= This is SA 3.1.3. running on a box by itself, called remotely over a TCP socket. It is backed by a Pg 8.1 bayesian datastore. In the error logs, I see a lot of errors like this: > Jul 9 12:38:03 robin spamd[10366]: prefork: sysread(9) not ready, > wait max 300 secs > Jul 9 12:38:09 robin spamd[10388]: prefork: periodic ping from spamd > parent > Jul 9 12:38:09 robin spamd[10388]: prefork: sysread(9) not ready, > wait max 300 secs Also, > Diving deeper into that log, I see things like: > Sun Jul 9 12:44:01 2006 pooh[27263]: spamassassin > Sun Jul 9 12:44:01 2006 pooh[27263]: check_spam: No, hits=, > required=, tests= And things have gone wrong. Further, spamd has a dying child: > 255 Jul 9 12:44:01 robin spamd[10225]: prefork: new lowest idle kid: > 10388 Jul 9 12:44:01 robin spamd[10225]: spamd: handled cleanup of > child pid 10366 due to SIGCHLD > Jul 9 12:44:01 robin spamd[10225]: prefork: child closed connection > Jul 9 12:44:01 robin spamd[10225]: prefork: child states: I > Jul 9 12:44:01 robin spamd[10225]: spamd: server successfully > spawned child process, pid 10399 > Jul 9 12:44:01 robin spamd[10225]: prefork: child 10399: entering > state 0 > Jul 9 12:44:01 robin spamd[10399]: prefork: sysread(9) not ready, > wait max 300 secs > Jul 9 12:44:01 robin spamd[10225]: prefork: new lowest idle kid: > 10388 Jul 9 12:44:01 robin spamd[10225]: prefork: child 10399: > entering state 1 > Jul 9 12:44:01 robin spamd[10225]: prefork: new lowest idle kid: > 10388 Jul 9 12:44:01 robin spamd[10225]: prefork: child reports idle > Jul 9 12:44:01 robin spamd[10225]: prefork: child states: II Any further clues on how to understand this problem would be appreciated.
