Rspamd Plugin

[jamesf]

Hi,

When using the default Rspamd plugin for DirectAdmin, it seems very limited with what you can see.

it seems to only show:

Time	Worker type	PID	Module	Internal ID	Message

I have seen it where in the History it shows:

ID	IP address	[Envelope From] From	[Envelope To] To/Cc/Bcc	Subject	Action	Score	Msg size	Scan time	Time	Authenticated user

I can also see an error saying:

cannot init backend redis for statfile BAYES_HAM

cannot init backend redis for statfile BAYES_HAM

When you searched google what did you find?

I found something to do with redis and github, but i am not sure.

I followed the guide on the DA docs, but coudln't see anything???

Yeah it's not a feature that is in the DA docs. Mostly because Redis isn't installed on most hosting servers. You have to read the RSpam documentation if you want to use that function.

Thank You, I am trying you use the built in DA plugin... ? perhaps you could point me to the correct docs please?

I installed Redis, following this: https://www.interserver.net/tips/kb/install-redis-and-redis-php-in-directadmin/

and it didn't seem to make any difference?

Redis configuration

Rspamd is an advanced spam filtering system and email processing framework that allows evaluation of messages by a number of rules including regular expressions, statistical analysis and custom services such as URL black lists.

Rspamd statistics configuration with Redis

Rspamd is able to use combinations of words to qualify messages as Spam or Ham. We will configure it to learn these tokens per user and store them in redis with a TTL of 100 days as spammers may develop new methods over time. The key idea of OSB algorithm is to use not merely […]

honestly, all I did was right-click on your error and choose Search Google

cannot init backend redis for statfile BAYES_HAM - Google Search

 

[jamesf]

OK. I did:

# yum remove redis

yum install redis

vi /etc/rspamd/local.d/redis.conf
added this: servers = "127.0.0.1";

seems to show the full menu now..... seems the DA documentation could do with a few more bits adding to it......

 

[jamesf]

after restarting server, get this error:

got error Connection refused when getting history: no value

 

[jamesf]

redis doesn't auto start so need:

#chkconfig redis on

For shared hosting I recommend using redis on a socket. I use the following set up for rspamd + redis on centos8

Install and enable:
yum install redis
systemctl enable redis

edit /etc/redis.conf

bind 127.0.0.1
port 0
unixsocket /var/lib/redis/rspamd/rspamd.sock
unixsocketperm 770
pidfile /var/run/redis/rspamd.pid
logfile /var/log/redis/rspamd.log
dir /var/lib/redis/rspamd/

Now create the db dir and set permissions

mkdir -p /var/lib/redis/rspamd/
chown redis:redis /var/lib/redis/rspamd/
systemctl start redis

Create /etc/rspamd/local.d/redis.conf and add

servers = "/var/lib/redis/rspamd/rspamd.sock";

Finally verify and restart:
rspamadm configtest && systemctl restart rspamd

DA doesnt natively support redis. So there is no doc yet. its all custom. The Plugin you reference is not a DA owned plugin

 

[jamesf]

Since DA has Rspamd built in... it’s kinda strange it’s not supported when you set it to rspamd... hopefully something for the future.

Sorry for the bump.

I found running the build rspamd command twice in a row, will configure redis.
