Warning: I'm very new to Linux so hopefully the error I'm hitting is merely due to inexperience and not something more involved.
Debian - current stable postfix - 2.1.5-9 amavisd-new - 20030616p10-5 spamassassin - 3.0.3-2 I'm setting up a Debian anti-spam, anti-virus gateway as described in the excellent walkthrough provided at www.freespamfilter.org. I've finished setting up postfix, amavisd-new, pyzor, razor, DCC and SpamAssassin. I have not yet set up ClamAV. At this point everything looks good running amavisd-new debug until I send in a test email. The mail hits the Debian box and makes it through various steps ok up until the MIME extraction section. Here are the relevant debug lines: Oct 11 11:38:38 spambox.mydomain.com /usr/sbin/amavisd-new[1102]: (01102-01) Extracting mime components Oct 11 11:38:38 spambox.mydomain.com /usr/sbin/amavisd-new[1102]: (01102-01) Issued a new file name: p001 Oct 11 11:38:38 spambox.mydomain.com /usr/sbin/amavisd-new[1102]: (01102-01) TROUBLE in check_mail: mime_decode-1 FAILED: write-open ../var/lib/amavis/amavis-20051011T113838-01102/parts/p001: No such file or directory at /usr/share/perl5/MIME/Body.pm line 414.

I can't tell if the parts (i.e. p001) are never getting created or if they are created and then immediately deleted before Body.pm has a chance to open the files. Where should I look to find the cause of this? I know people may need more info from my setup before they can pin down the problem so please let me know what you need to see. Thanks for any help you can offer. -- Josh Catlin ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: Power Architecture Resource Center: Free content, downloads, discussions, and more. http://solutions.newsforge.com/ibmarch.tmpl _______________________________________________ AMaViS-user mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/amavis-user AMaViS-FAQ:http://www.amavis.org/amavis-faq.php3 AMaViS-HowTos:http://www.amavis.org/howto/
