Title: spamd won't start
Post by: sbhasin on December 23, 2007, 01:54:49 PM
I recently upgraded to p5-Mail-SpamAssassin-3.2.3.

The vpopmail version I'm using is:
pkg_info | grep vpop
p5-vpopmail-0.08    Perl module to provide access to vpopmail API
qmailadmin-1.2.10,1 CGI program for administering Qmail with vchkpw/vpopmail
vpopmail-5.4.17     Easy virtual domain and authentication package for use with

And I get the following error when trying to start sa-spamd (in /usr/local/etc/rc.d):
spamd: cannot use --vpopmail without -u

I can't seem to find any relevant information after a few hours of google search. Would anyone know why this is happening and what steps i can take to fix this? Emails are coming in just fine, but spam filtering is not working (of course).

Please help.

Ok, not sure where the problem is, but i did solve this. I've started spamd successfully with the following command and flags:
spamd -v -d -x -u spamd -r /var/run/spamd/spamd.pid
