MailScanner and SpamAssassin together causes Exterme CPU usage

[Randal, Phil]

Can you run
 
  sa-update -D
 
and compare the last few lines of output with this:
 
 [27658] dbg: channel: metadata version = 795855
[27658] dbg: dns: 5.2.3.updates.spamassassin.org => 795855, parsed as
795855
[27658] dbg: channel: current version is 795855, new version is 795855,
skipping channel

Can you also tell us which MailScanner version is installed?

Cheers,

Phil

I have version 3.2.5-1.el5 installed in I installed it VIA YUM. However
I also uninstalled and downloaded the ClamAV, SA version off the
MailScanner website but it didn't install SA for some reason. And so I
downloaded and installed VIA YUM again, only to have the same problem
re-occur.

Start by telling us which version of spamassassin you have installed,
and where you installed it from.

 

Also, if you haven't already, run sa-update to ensure you have the
current SA rules.

Subject: MailScanner and SpamAssassin together causes Exterme CPU usage

I have no idea what to do as I have never come across this before. I am
using a CentOS 5.3 server and when I enable the "Use SpamAssassin"
option my server slows to a near halt. Somehow with the 2 enabled
together something is going wrong and I don't even know where to begin
trouble shooting this without turning SpamAssassin off. Can anyone point
me in the right direction? I don't even know if this a MailSacnner or
SpamAssassin issue. 

 

Thanks,

Vernon
