debug question

  
Hello All,
 
I've upgraded to:
amavisd-new-2.4.4-4
spamassassin-3.1.7-3
from:
amavisd-new-20030616p9-3.6
spamassassin-2.64-3.7
 
on SLES9
 
When I run "amavisd debug" and see some
"suspicious" output like:
------------------------------------------------------------

Should I do something about "BerkeleyDB-based

Any tips are welcome.

I'm not familiar with SLES9, but from another doc I found it
seems you need
'db-devel' and then 'cpan BerkeleyDB'. You also want to
install 'pax'.

You also need to create a 'db' directory in the amavis home
directory,
and give ownership to the amavis user. This is where the BDB
database
will be stored.

Then in amavisd.conf, to use the cache, you would add (if
not already
there)

$enable_db = 1;              # enable use of
BerkeleyDB/libdb (SNMP and nanny)
$enable_global_cache = 1;    # enable use of libdb-based
cache if $enable_db=1

You may also want to configure new quarantines for:
$banned_quarantine_to     = 'banned-quarantine';     # local
quarantine
$bad_header_quarantine_to = 'bad-header-quarantine'; # local
quarantine
since the newer version allows you to separate these out
from
$virus_quarantine_to.

AMaViS-HowTos:http://www.amavis.org/ho

Hi,


First, I've compiled and installed new perl modules (some of
them for
FuzzyOCR):
perl-BerkeleyDB-0.31-12.i586.rpm
perl-Compress-Zlib-1.42-20.i586.rpm
perl-Convert-UUlib-1.051-31.i586.rpm
perl-IO-Multiplex-1.08-14.i586.rpm
perl-MIME-tools-5.420-20.i586.rpm
perl-MLDBM-2.01-280.i586.rpm
perl-MLDBM-Sync-0.30-276.i586.rpm
perl-Net-Server-0.94-18.i586.rpm
perl-Tie-Cache-0.17-274.i586.rpm
perl-Tie-IxHash-1.21-618.i586.rpm

Second I've moved from old amavisd.conf style settings to
new 2.4.4 style
settings, using the following howto's from Gary V. as a
reference:
ht
tp://www200.pair.com/mecham/spam/upgrade244.html
http://www200.pair.com/mecham/spam/amavisd-settings.html


Restarted amavis, and "BerkeleyDB-based Amavis::Cache
not available"
messages are gone.

Now I have several questions regarding "spamassassin
--lint -D" output (I
run it as amavis user, vscan on Suse):

1) I got the following "module not installed"
lines:
[3210] dbg: diag: module not installed: Mail::SPF::Query
('require' failed)
[3210] dbg: diag: module not installed: IP::Country::Fast
('require' failed)
[3210] dbg: diag: module not installed: Net::Ident
('require' failed)
[3210] dbg: diag: module not installed: IO::Socket::INET6
('require' failed)

Are these modules really needed for a proper Spam detection
and should I try
to install them?


2) I've installed Razor2 in /var/spool/amavis directory and
enabled it in
local.cf with "use_razor2 1" and there is an
uncommented line
loadplugin Mail::SpamAssassin::Plugin::Razor2
in v310.pre file. 
In amavisd.conf there is "$sa_local_tests_only =
0;"

And indeed I see that Razor test are run and the module is
loaded, but as
you can see below there is a "local tests only,
skipping Razor" message:

[3210] dbg: diag: module installed: Razor2::Client::Agent,
version 2.82 
[3210] dbg: plugin: loading
Mail::SpamAssassin::Plugin::Razor2 from INC
[3210] dbg: razor2: local tests only, skipping Razor
[3210] dbg: plugin: registered
Mail::SpamAssassin::Plugin::Razor2=HASH(0x9291740)

What could be the problem here?

3) As I understand "spamassassin --lint -D" run
some tests on test message.
I do not have DCC installed, so it's kinda weird what rule
is triggering the
following message:

[3210] info: rules: meta test DIGEST_MULTIPLE has undefined
dependency
'DCC_CHECK'

Leon Kolchinsky

They are only needed if you desire the features they
provide.

  module => 'Mail::SPF::Query',

As of SA version 3.1.6, --lint turns off net tests. You now
have to
feed a message to debug to get net tests.

spamassassin -D <sample-spam.txt

I suggest asking about this on the SA list. Do you plan on
installing
DCC? If you do install it, this 'informational' message may
go away.

This one is not needed by amavisd-new
(and is of dubious value with spamd).

Hi,

1. So as I conclude from your and Marks' replyes the only
module I really
should install is Mail::SPF::Query
Is there default SA rules (not carried by plugin) relaying
on this module?

2. I'll try this syntax without --lint:
spamassassin -D <sample-spam.txt

3. I'll ask SA list on DCC issue

Best Regards,
Leon

They are only needed if you desire the features they
provide.

  module => 'Mail::SPF::Query',
  desc => 'Used to check DNS Sender Policy Framework

email
  address forgery and make it easier to identify spams.',

  module => 'IP::Country::Fast',
  alt_name => 'IP::Country',

As of SA version 3.1.6, --lint turns off net tests. You now
have to
feed a message to debug to get net tests.

spamassassin -D <sample-spam.txt

run some tests on test

I suggest asking about this on the SA list. Do you plan on
installing
DCC? If you do install it, this 'informational' message may
go away.

Yes there are.
