I was in the FreeNode SpamAssassin IRC chat room and a guy in there told me to
post some of this info.
Apparently, we are experiencing the same issues.
OS: RedHat Enterprise Linux ES release 3 (Taroon Update 2)
Kernel: 2.4.21-20.ELsmp
Processor: Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 CPU 2.80GHz HT
Perl: 5.8.1
We are running CPanel as our Control Panel on the server. We have been in
talks with CPanel Technical Support and they seem to be at a loss as to why
this is occuring.
We are running Exim 4.42 with SpamAssassin 3.0.0.
The ROOT SpamD daemon runs, spawns 5 SpamD child processes, and the SpamC
processes run as users.
For some reason, child SA processes will hang, causing SMTP 421 Lost Incoming
Connection errors that pretty much stops the flow of all email on the server.
The only way we have been able to kill SpamAssassin when this happens is to
execute "kill -9 `ps -aef | grep spam | grep -v grep | awk '{print $2}'`" and
then invoke "spamd -d" to restart it. Sometimes this works, sometimes not.
I have grabbed some STRACE data from the server and the SpamC processes seem
to be stuck in a RECV state, as indicated in the data below.
# strace -f -p 13506
Process 13506 attached - interrupt to quit
recv(3,
# strace -f -p 14119
Process 14119 attached - interrupt to quit
recv(4,
# strace -f -p 14106
Process 14106 attached - interrupt to quit
recv(3,
# strace -f -p 14084
Process 14084 attached - interrupt to quit
recv(3,
Hopefully, this will be the ammo you need to start killing this bug.
