RE: [vps-mail] VPS2 spamd, need help

For what it is worth I have just (tonight) installed procmail and
spamassassin on VPS2 using the same parameters.
The only difference from your plan is that I followed my spamassassin
vinstall with the following
perl -MCPAN -e 'install Mail::SpamAssassin'
to upgrade to SA 2.63 - not sure that will help, but there you go.
Point is, it 'appears' to be working - not tested it fully yet but
daemon runs, blacklist item is detected and deposited as
required..yippee-ki-aay! - also worth noting I have only just unwrapped
the server - no live data, so its very clean.
Good luck.
Chris.

Subject: [vps-mail] VPS2 spamd, need help


Hi

Using |/usr/local/bin/spamassassin in the promailrc works, but I am
trying to get spamd to run on our new VPS2. (Using vinstall)

I found this from a thread on March 4th
(http://www.perlcode.org/lists/vps-mail/msg00766.html). I get the
following error when trying to launch spamd:"Unknown option:
socketpath". I removed that directive and still had no luck.

Any ideas?

TIA, Jerry
