In which case it should just be a file permissions problem - you need to make 
sure the user amavis (or vscan or whatever username amavisd is running as) 
has permissions on /etc/mail/spamassassin/bayes_*

Usually amaivs keeps its bayes stuff in a ,spamassassin folder within its home 
directory, in my case /var/lib/amavis/.spamassassin
