• Database in use

    By Calin Perebiceanu 2 decades ago

    I have kspam 1.7b on Domino 7.0.1 on Fedora Core 3.

    I have encountered two errors:



    First that the database kSpamConf.nsf cannot be read and rule are not loaded. When this happens it blocks the smtp task, and does not accept any other messages. All smtp connections remain ESTABLISHED.The other one is with kspam.bload shared memory.



    Now my question is what happends if kSpamDatabase.nsf is in use by another program , like compact , fixup when kspam tries to load the rules. Does kspam retries to load the rules at next hour if it can't succed the first time or just hangs ?.

      Should reload rules every hour.

      Do you compact dbs with some options?

        I do compact -a for archiving .

        I've noticed that when the conf db is in use , kspam doesn't reload anymore, just hangs.



        I get a lot of smtp task serving different ip's , but no messages form those ip's . It just hangs.

        I have to do a restart of the domino server.



        I guess , if the first time kspam can't load the rules , that it shoul try again in 5 min , no ?
