We have upgraded to DA 1.22.5.
Now we have SpamAssassin link in Email section of User Panel.
But if we try to open this page - we receiving error message:
Unable to setup spamassassin

Spamd is not running on your system.
Click Here to learn how to enable it
but
$ ps auxw | grep spamd
root 12925 0.0 1.8 18952 18120 ?? Is 4:21PM 0:01.04 /usr/bin/spamd -d -a -c -m 5 (perl)

It's on FreeBSD 4.10 server.
Any suggestions?
 
I got the same problem, but with a different path, so I thought it was a path issue...apparently not.
I'm also on freeBSD so there is at least a common denominator.
 
I dont know Jack about BSD systems, but maybe it's missing dependencies?

Here's a script I used to fix ours, maybe it can be modified to fix yours? This was written for RH9/fedora


cd /usr/local/directadmin/scripts
./spam.sh
wget http://search.cpan.org/CPAN/authors/id/G/GA/GAAS/HTML-Parser-3.35.tar.gz
tar xvzf HTML-Parser-3.35.tar.gz
cd HTML-Parser-3.35
perl Makefile.PL
make
make install
/usr/bin/spamd -d -a -c -m 5
/sbin/service exim restart
 
I don't think so. I beleive if spamd is missing some dependencies then daemon wouldn't start and error message will be given.

BTW, we have HTML-Parser-3.36 installed.
 
Weird, I've got it tagged to modify the headers, but none of what is coming through is modified, and is definately spam.

Still working on it myself.
 
I got an official answer and by seeing Clayrabbit and existenz's output, I think we all got the same problem.

(...).The process is returning "perl" as the program instead of "spamd", hence da assumes it's not running.(...)
 
Why not make a config line in the da conf with something like:

spamassassin=2

2=spamassassin auto detect
1=spamassassin enabled
0=spamassassin disabled

I use MailScanner and cannot use the DA interface, only if I start the spamd deamon. :s
