I'm seeing in my maillog file (SA 3.x running in Debug mode) the following:
cannot write to /root/.spamassassin/bayes_journal, Bayes db update ignored: Permission denied This is right after all the bayes token statements. It suggests it's a problem, but I don't seem to be able to fix it. My default bayes location is /root/.spamassassin and I've tried making permissions on it wide open (777). The files in it are: -rw------- 1 root root 618496 Jan 28 13:26 auto-whitelist -rw------- 1 root root 1323008 Jan 28 14:05 bayes_seen -rw------- 1 root root 10489856 Jan 28 14:05 bayes_toks -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1313 Jan 28 13:26 user_prefs And spam assassin is being started with service spamassassin start (via root) So I'm a little lost as to why this error would be coming up. Any suggestions? As I said, I'm not sure this is actually a problem, but it does suggest that the bayes DB's are not being updated. Thanks for any help in advance, Chris --------------------------------------------------------------- The most important tool in your toolbox is the question "why?".
