same here

Same here;
I have a fresh install of DirectAdmin done by the DA-support dept. on FreeBSD 4.11.
When I try to install SpamAssassin for my webserver by following the knowledgebase article 'How to enable SpamAssassin on your server', I get this very same Error while running the install script.

Doesn't FreeBSD have a working version of SpamAssassin in /usr/ports which is compatible with the Exim installed with DirectAdmin ?

Jorix yes I use spamassassin from ports.

I cant remember offhand if it works right after install or if it needs configuring to work with DA.

I will have a look later if I get a chance.

@Chrysalis: Thanks for your reply. I just got it working like a charm. I tried to install the mail/p5-Mail-SpamAssassin port and it failed, so I did a 'make deinstall clean'. After that I tried to follow the knowledge base article once more and this time it worked without errors. Perhaps there were some missing dependencies which weren't checked by the script from DA, or there must have been some remaining install-slack from another package.

Anyway, it works right now

Greetz,
