Sa-learn error

The files that ends in a number are lock files from SA processes using
the Bayes database, the number is the process id.

Can you do "spamassassin -D -t < somespammail"? You have a sample in the
SA distribution you can use for testing, I think it's called sample-spam
or something. Do you get the same errors then?

In that case try "sa-learn --rebuild", if that doesn't work I think you
have to delete the Bayes files to let it start from scratch.
