Hi, I've got two new machines, with SA 3.0.3 & MD 2.52, replacing two existing systems, with SA 2.64 & MD 2.43. I want to use the existing bayes DBs as they have been built up over quite sometime. On Monday I tried to use the db-to-txt perl script, which was expanding nicely, but after creating a file of over 10Gb, I decided to kill that off and just try to use the sa-learn process instead. That has now been running for over 24 hrs. Would it normally take this long to convert ?
One other problem I've seen is on an identical system, which wouldn't even recognise the bayes_toks file as v2 at all. It came back with : debug: bayes: 16992 tie-ing to DB file R/O /var/spool/MIMEDefang-bayes/bayes_toks Cannot open bayes databases /var/spool/MIMEDefang-bayes/bayes_* R/O: tie failed: debug: bayes: 16992 untie-ing DB file toks debug: Score set 0 chosen. debug: Initialising learner debug: Syncing Bayes and expiring old tokens... debug: lock: 16992 created /var/spool/MIMEDefang-bayes/bayes.mutex debug: lock: 16992 trying to get lock on /var/spool/MIMEDefang-bayes/bayes with 300 timeout debug: lock: 16992 link to /var/spool/MIMEDefang-bayes/bayes.mutex: link ok debug: bayes: 16992 tie-ing to DB file R/W /var/spool/MIMEDefang-bayes/bayes_toks debug: bayes: 16992 untie-ing DB file toks debug: unlock: 16992 unlocked /var/spool/MIMEDefang-bayes/bayes.mutex Cannot open bayes databases /var/spool/MIMEDefang-bayes/bayes_* R/W: tie failed: No such file or directory debug: Syncing complete. where as the system that is still converting gave: debug: bayes: 13295 tie-ing to DB file R/O /var/spool/MIMEDefang-bayes/bayes_toks debug: bayes: 13295 tie-ing to DB file R/O /var/spool/MIMEDefang-bayes/bayes_seen debug: bayes: found bayes db version 2 bayes: bayes db version 2 is not able to be used, aborting! at /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.5/Mail/SpamAssassin/BayesStore/DBM.pm line 160. debug: Score set 0 chosen. debug: Initialising learner debug: Syncing Bayes and expiring old tokens... debug: lock: 13295 created /var/spool/MIMEDefang-bayes/bayes.mutex debug: lock: 13295 trying to get lock on /var/spool/MIMEDefang-bayes/bayes with 300 timeout debug: lock: 13295 link to /var/spool/MIMEDefang-bayes/bayes.mutex: link ok debug: bayes: 13295 tie-ing to DB file R/W /var/spool/MIMEDefang-bayes/bayes_toks debug: bayes: 13295 tie-ing to DB file R/W /var/spool/MIMEDefang-bayes/bayes_seen debug: bayes: found bayes db version 2 debug: bayes: detected bayes db format 2, upgrading debug: bayes: upgrading database format from v2 to v3 debug: refresh: 13295 refresh /var/spool/MIMEDefang-bayes/bayes.mutex debug: refresh: 13295 refresh /var/spool/MIMEDefang-bayes/bayes.mutex debug: refresh: 13295 refresh /var/spool/MIMEDefang-bayes/bayes.mutex The bayes DBs on the new machines are using the same files taken from the same machine, so why is one seeing it the other failing ?
