I think a possible reason why there aren't more people complaining about this is that it is hard to notice unless you are specifically researching a problem. For two years of running ASSP I never really manually checked the size of the Penalty box, and turned off Penalty logging altogether. First of all, thanks for everyone already working on this. There is always the fear when you "Google" something that you are the only one in the world with the problem. I appreciate everyones groundwork on this already. I had a valid MTA-IP get placed in the penaltybox. Whitelisting the domain (whiteListDomains) and marking the IP address as no-pentalitybox (noPB) never removed the associated IP address. This is when I noticed the cleanup file "pbdb.black.db.tmp" never replaced the active "pbdb.black.db". I was only able to remove the offending IP address by wiping out the entire PB directory and letting it rebuild itself from scratch. >From there the whole "never cleaning up" restarts from the beginning: Apr-30-09 01:33:48 Cleaning up penalty records ...

My Setup: ASSP 1.5.1.1(1.0.04) Windows 2003 Server - Fully Patched ActiveState Perl 5.8.9 No Antivirus Permissions granted to everyone on all ASSP sub directories (yup it sucks) MaintenanceLog set to Verbose Ran ASSP since 1.2.6 (2 Years with no problems) - Same box Upgraded ASSP two weeks ago (when problems began) One thing I noticed is that I am not receiving a lock-file error in my log files. Is this verbose logging error exclusive to those running 1.5.1.2? -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/About-the-penaltybox-cleanup-tp23212830p23322173.html Sent from the assp-test mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Register Now & Save for Velocity, the Web Performance & Operations Conference from O'Reilly Media.
