I start with starter db from Fortress Systems since my old bayes db from 2.6x was creamed by this same issue...
# spamassassin -p /etc/MailScanner/spam.assassin.prefs.conf -D --lint
much snippage... debug: bayes: 5791 tie-ing to DB file R/O /etc/MailScanner/bayes/bay debug: bayes: 5791 tie-ing to DB file R/O /etc/MailScanner/bayes/bayes_seen debug: bayes: found bayes db version 3
ok - looks good
# sa-learn -p /etc/MailScanner/spam.assassin.prefs.conf --dump magic 0.000 0 3 0 non-token data: bayes db version 0.000 0 1733 0 non-token data: nspam 0.000 0 313 0 non-token data: nham 0.000 0 140671 0 non-token data: ntokens 0.000 0 1051647943 0 non-token data: oldest atime 0.000 0 1095956416 0 non-token data: newest atime 0.000 0 0 0 non-token data: last journal sync atime 0.000 0 0 0 non-token data: last expiry atime 0.000 0 0 0 non-token data: last expire atime delta 0.000 0 0 0 non-token data: last expire reduction count
still looks good - but within 2 minutes...
# sa-learn -p /etc/MailScanner/spam.assassin.prefs.conf --dump magic

It seems that no matter how I execute things like...
sa-learn --rebuild or
sa-learn --sync -D
it always corrupts in this fashion.
Any clues?
Thanks Craig
