Hi, I have a fresh install of SpamAssassin as per the instructions in the Installation folder.
I will be using this on a qmail server. Currently I am unable to get spamassassin to start. Any help would be appreciated. Here are all of the relevant messages that I can find. (If somebody needs more information, please let me know) SpamAssassin Server version 3.2.3 running on Perl 5.8.8 mail:/etc/mail/spamassassin# spamd start [20382] info: rules: meta test FM_DDDD_TIMES_2 has dependency 'FH_HOST_EQ_D_D_D_D' with a zero score [20382] info: rules: meta test FM_SEX_HOSTDDDD has dependency 'FH_HOST_EQ_D_D_D_D' with a zero score [20382] info: spamd: server started on port 783/tcp (running version 3.2.3) [20382] info: spamd: server pid: 20382 [20382] info: spamd: server successfully spawned child process, pid 20501 [20382] info: spamd: server successfully spawned child process, pid 20502 [20382] info: prefork: child states: II [20382] info: spamd: server killed by SIGINT, shutting down mail:/var/log# tail mail.err Sep 18 11:00:01 mail spamd[19942]: spamd: could not create INET socket on 127.0.0.1:783: Address already in use mail:/var/log# tail mail.warn Sep 18 10:59:59 mail spamd[19942]: server socket setup failed, retry 1: spamd: could not create INET socket on 127.0.0.1:783: Address already in use Sep 18 11:00:00 mail spamd[19942]: server socket setup failed, retry 2: spamd: could not create INET socket on 127.0.0.1:783: Address already in use Sep 18 11:00:01 mail spamd[19942]: spamd: could not create INET socket on 127.0.0.1:783: Address already in use mail:/var/log# netstat -luntp | grep 783 tcp 0 0 127.0.0.1:783 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN 20382/perl mail:/var/log# more /etc/mail/spamassassin/local.cf # This is the right place to customize your installation of SpamAssassin. # # See 'perldoc Mail::SpamAssassin::Conf' for details of what can be # tweaked. # # Only a small subset of options are listed below # ########################################################################### # Add *****SPAM***** to the Subject header of spam e-mails # rewrite_header Subject *****SPAM***** # Save spam messages as a message/rfc822 MIME attachment instead of # modifying the original message (0: off, 2: use text/plain instead) # # report_safe 1 # Set which networks or hosts are considered 'trusted' by your mail # server (i.e. not spammers) # # trusted_networks 212.17.35. # Set file-locking method (flock is not safe over NFS, but is faster) # # lock_method flock # Set the threshold at which a message is considered spam (default: 5.0) # required_score 5.0 # Use Bayesian classifier (default: 1) # # use_bayes 1 # Bayesian classifier auto-learning (default: 1) # # bayes_auto_learn 1 # Set headers which may provide inappropriate cues to the Bayesian # classifier # # bayes_ignore_header X-Bogosity # bayes_ignore_header X-Spam-Flag # bayes_ignore_header X-Spam-Status
