I have upgraded the databases, and its now reading correctly, as I get bayes scoring now. However autoupdates are failing because of lock files...
In my config I have: bayes_path /var/spool/MIMEDefang
Maillog is reporting:
Nov 17 12:54:02 lithium mimedefang-multiplexor[35151]: Slave 0 stderr: bayes: lock: 35570 cannot create tmp lockfile /var/spool/MIMEDefang.lock.host.domain.com.35570 for /var/spool/MIMEDefang.lock: Permission denied
This seems to me a spamassassin error message. It appears that I need to be able to configure where the lock file is written. /var/spool is not an option since its not a very good idea to loosen permissions here for obvious security reasons (not to mention mimedefang will tell you to sod off until you fix it).
There's been some other weirdness with it looking for databases in /var/spool/MIMEDefang/ ... using MIMEDefang_seen and MIMEDefang_toks (instead of bayes_seen and bayes_toks)... but then going looking for /var/spool/MIMEDefang_journal.
Anyway, if someone knows if its possible to configure where the lockfile is written in spamassassin, that would be much appreciated.
