Hi,
I have a problem on one server that I see several times an hour
this problem logged by spamd
Wed May 5 10:04:43 2010 [88823] info: spamd: handled cleanup of child
pid [90622] due to SIGCHLD: DIED, signal 11 (000b)
And in the main messages file a corresponding error regarding the perl process
May 5 10:04:43 <kern.info> nu kernel: pid 90622 (perl), uid 26:
exited on signal 11
This is a problem on a relatively new server:
FreeBSD 8.0
SpamAssassin version 3.3.1
running on Perl version 5.10.1
On an older FreeBSD version I am having no problems, both should be
configured the same re mail and spamassassin. Today I have also copied
over the .spamassassin data directory from the working server to the
dodgy server in case there was any file corruption but the problem
persists.
A similar problem I found searching the errors seems to be:
https://issues.apache.org/SpamAssassin/show_bug.cgi?id=6127
However this isnt resolved currently, and also I dont have a GB sized
auto whitelist file...
Any ideas on this? Whats my next step? Some more debugging? Any advise
gratefully received,
thanks Andy.
PS Below I include a full exert from the spamd log for a process that
dies in this way:
