Lately I noticed a bizar increase in spam, despite running Spam Assassin.

Thought I'd check my Spam Assassin setup and found this message in DA.

Code:
Unable to setup spamassassin

Spamd is not running on your system.

I've tried:
Code:
# /usr/bin/spamd -d -c -m 15

It seems to run quite long, and then the console get's back no message at all.

Then I did:
Code:
# service exim restart

Which gives me:
Code:
Shutting down exim: 
Starting exim: 
spamd: no process found

I've decided to redo my steps from here
http://help.directadmin.com/item.php?id=36

But after setup, same problem still exists. Configurations are still in place yet no spamd.

What would be the best next step .... ?
 
Thanks for your reply !

Code:
# spamd -V
SpamAssassin Server version 3.3.2
  running on Perl 5.10.1
Mar 10 10:09:35.715 [1426] error: Socket version 1.95 required--this is only version 1.82 at /usr/local/share/perl/5.10.1/IO/Socket/SSL.pm line 92.
Mar 10 10:09:35.715 [1426] error: Can't locate IO/Socket/IP.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /usr/local/share/perl/5.10.1 /etc/perl /usr/local/lib/perl/5.10.1 /usr/lib/perl5 /usr/share/perl5 /usr/lib/perl/5.10 /usr/share/perl/5.10 /usr/local/lib/site_perl) at /usr/local/share/perl/5.10.1/IO/Socket/SSL.pm line 106.
  with SSL support (IO::Socket::SSL 1.84)
  with zlib support (Compress::Zlib 2.06)

Code:
# sa-update

That last command didn't show any error or notification.

So, from what I can gather, it needs a Socket version upgrade ...
 
Just followed:

http://forum.directadmin.com/showthread.php?t=43935

And updated CPAN and so,

Code:
# spamd -V
SpamAssassin Server version 3.4.0
  running on Perl 5.10.1
  with SSL support (IO::Socket::SSL 1.967)
  with zlib support (Compress::Zlib 2.064)

Seems to be okay now.

However:
Code:
# service exim restart
Shutting down exim: 
Starting exim: 
spamd: no process found

*edit*
When I restart Exim it still gives the Spamd error. However; if I do this:

Code:
# /usr/bin/spamd -d -c -m 15

Spamd works from within DA and I can set Spam Assassin settings.

Restarting Exim however makes spamd go down again.
