Hi all
I am having huge issues at the moment I don’t know whether this is just me !
I have several servers out there in the world all running freebsd either 4x , 6x and 7x. all have combination of mailscanner, clamav and spamassasin installed
This server I am trying to fix is having these problems below
May 26 10:14:51 jjfw MailScanner[46682]: Using SpamAssassin results cache
May 26 10:14:51 jjfw MailScanner[46682]: Connected to SpamAssassin cache database
May 26 10:14:51 jjfw MailScanner[46682]: Enabling SpamAssassin auto-whitelist functionality...
May 26 10:14:55 jjfw MailScanner[46683]: MailScanner E-Mail Virus Scanner version 4.67.6 starting...
May 26 10:14:56 jjfw MailScanner[46683]: Read 748 hostnames from the phishing whitelist
May 26 10:14:56 jjfw MailScanner[46683]: Could not read phishing blacklist file
May 26 10:14:56 jjfw MailScanner[46683]: User's home directory /var/spool/postfix is not writable
May 26 10:14:56 jjfw MailScanner[46683]: You need to set the "SpamAssassin User State Dir" to a directory that the "Run As User" can write to
May 26 10:14:56 jjfw MailScanner[46683]: SpamAssassin temporary working directory is /var/spool/MailScanner/incoming/SpamAssassin-Temp
This happens every single time a update is done in the software. I had these issues at home and rebuilt my server how ever being this is a server in major corporation I just can’t come in there and reinstall it.
This has only happened this morning, I don’t have the server doing automatic software updates I do them manually. I just had a phone call saying that no mail is getting tagged or there not getting any at all.
This server was updated back in March I believe because of the ORBL problem which I later discovered I can just comment out of file so I didn’t need to upgrade it then believe is the output of the /var/spool/postfix I am not to go with the file permissions so I am not sure if these are correct
