SpamAssassin installation failure

Tue Dec 12 23:09:11 UTC 2017

Hi Shawn,

My apologies for messy emails but I’d like to make things clear. So, here’s what I did step by step:

  1.  Installed Debian Jessie and upgraded (sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade && sudo reboot).
  2.  Installed few packages: ca-certificates, libgeo-ip-perl, libnet-patricia-perl
  3.  Downloaded the MailScanner installer.
  4.  Ran the command - ./install.sh --MTA=postfix --installClamav=Y --installCPAN=Y --ignoreDeps=N --ramdiskSize=0

During the procedure, I watched the log and this showed up.

It kept going and installation finished. And when I looked the /root/.cpanm/work/1513044980.46831/build.log file, at the end this shows.

Sorry for flying emails but I used this file - https://s3.amazonaws.com/msv5/release/MailScanner-5.0.6-5.deb.tar.gz

I didn’t clone Github. Thanks.

Thanks Shawn,

I am using the latest kernel for your information (I did sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade && sudo reboot).

What is the possible cause of this error and how can I rectify this? Thanks a lot.
