• Spamcheck hangs sometimes

    By Guenther Rupitz 2 decades ago

    configuration:


    • suse linux 10.3, sa 3.2.3
    • check option: serial



      problem 1:

      sometimes (every 100. mail) the check-agent seems to jam when calling spamassassin, no more mails are delivered to that user because the router hangs at one mail, only a restart of the dominoserver solves the problem, not really nice.



      problem 2:

      when reporting much spam at one moment (>100) sometimes the agent seems to jam, the server-cpu load changes to 99%, only a restart solves the problem.



      at both problems nothing could be found in the logfiles, so wich additional info should i submit?

    • try from command line

      You'll need to isolate whether the problem is with the SpamAssassin Integration agent, or with the external SpamAssassin programs. Try running the SpamAssassin programs to do the same thing from the command line to see if you can reproduce the problem.

      If an "before mail arrives" agent hangs the Router task should automatically kill it after a while based on the time limit set in the Configuration document.
