local state dir directive came in around SA V 3.2 (could not find reference in
the 3.0/3.1 readme files) and has always been (default)
/var/lib/spamassassin and the MailScanner.conf notes for the setting state the
default as same. From MailScanner.conf:</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV></DIV>Ying,<BR><BR>A followup to this mornings mail, just got home and had
a good look at it.<BR>This issue can be resolved by changing locale state dir
from /var/lib<BR>to /var/lib/spamassasasin it seems it no longer
likes the search path <BR>being just /var/lib anymore.<BR><BR>I know /var/lib
worked as recently as a little over a month ago by looking<BR>at logs, and
by looking at the timestamps it all stopped here the day I upgraded<BR>all perl
modules and SA (so it seems it has not been working properly here for<BR>month
either, yikes!), but everything is working fine for an hour now , every
mailscanner<BR>score matches that given by amavisd-new, so i can thankfully get
rid of that :)<BR><BR>Now be it SA or one of the perl modules that saw the
ending of its liking<BR>/var/lib I have no idea as I did them here all same
time, so it is likely <BR>that anyone else using the old /var/lib only in
that setting will have<BR>issues upon upgrading something or other down the
track.<BR><BR>Julian<BR>FYI, this also resolved my "no report template
found " problem I told you<BR>occurred with these upgrades. I'd send this
to the list but as you know I'm<BR>marked no posting so maybe you'd like to edit
me out of this and resend it on <BR>as a reminder to any members still using the
old /var/lib to play it safe and <BR>add spamassassin to the end of
it :)<BR><BR>Cheers<BR><BR><BR><BR>On Sat, 2010-02-13 at 10:29 +1000, Ying
