That is an interesting way of looking at things, given some 1 million downloads a month, and only more than 2k reporting. That would say you know VERY little about those downloading and using ASSP if your basing it on those reporting vs downloading. I was able to rebuild the database till recently. Last data is 1/17/2015, so my problems are quite recent with regard to inability to rebuild spam database. > V2 and V1 are very different code bases.

I had to modify VERY little of that from previous versions. I did remove allot, but allot remained, so much of the code has carried over EXACTLY as it was in previous versions or sed would fail. Here is an example, I have not contributed my revised ebuilds for ASSP V2. I could do a diff and you would see much of the sed remains and applies to V2 as it did V1 http://sources.gentoo.org/cgi-bin/viewvc.cgi/gentoo-x86/mail-filter/assp/assp-1.9.8.13030.ebuild?view=markup > Related to the Schedule::Cron module: check your (scheduled) config > values! > btw: this module is not required by V2 - every schedule can be configured > the 'old' way, per interval defintion or by defining the starting hour - > simply read the GUI You keep referring to ASSP documentation. Is there a online documentation? Is there a man page? Or are you simply talking about the documentation inline on the web interface? Which seems to be much of the only documentation I can find beyond release notes. The PDF manual just seems to be a screenshot to pdf of the web interface. Also that documentation is NOT clear on the schedule cron module. It IMPLIES that it is needed even for the regular scheduled times for ASSP to run rebuildspamdb. Despite what was stated, it seems that is required for either your own schedule, or for ASSP to run rebuild spamdb on its own. Thus without schedule cron, ASSP does not have any rebuild spam database task as it seems. Despite what was said earlier. "If not set to "noschedule" (noschedule is default) , ASSP uses scheduled times to run the RebuildSpamdb! The syntax is the same like in "Vixie" cron! To disable the Scheduler write "noschedule"! Never write quotes in to this field! This requires an installed Schedule::Cron module in PERL. It is possible to define more than one scheduled time per day to keep the Bayesian and HMM databes up to date, but this is not required - use 'newReportedInterval' instead." That clearly states schedule cron is required. The new reported interval simply alloews more than on schedule time. But again without schedule cron module, there is no automation of spam db rebuild as it seems. mail assp # ls -l spamdb* -rw-r--r-- 1 assp assp 10590507 Jan 17 02:18 spamdb -rw-r--r-- 1 assp assp 10561135 Jan 16 14:58 spamdb.bak -rw-r--r-- 1 assp assp 27507 Jan 17 02:18 spamdb.helo -rw-r--r-- 1 assp assp 27328 Jan 16 14:58 spamdb.helo.bak -rw-r--r-- 1 assp assp 1 Jan 21 17:12 spamdb.helo.rb.tmp > >That is a bit excessive given the length of time I have ran ASSP for. > > Presently its on a > > >dual core VM with 4GB of ram.

Considering I have graphs telling me what is going on with the servers IO, CPU/Memory, etc for extended periods of time. There is NO point to double resources/expenses because someone tells me ASSP needs more. You have no idea as to my email volume. Email volume tends to determine server requirements far beyond the software you run. If ASSP requires 4 cores and 4GB of ram, something is SEVERELY off, and ASSP code needs to be tuned and improved. I have heavy enterprise Java apps that DO NOT require such. You realize Oracle Glassfish Enterprise Java Application server does not even require more than 2GB of memory and has no specifications on CPU. So ASSP v2 is a larger application and requires more resources than Glassfish? http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E19776-01/820-4494/abpaj/index.html -- William L.
