Re: [Dspam-user] debugging dspam?

[Colin B. <cb...@li...>]

Thanks for the reply, Tom. Yes, I see what you mean.

At the moment, dspam is now running for about 15 minutes at a time and
appears to be writing to its data directory. However, in maillog I am
periodically seeing lines this like this when dspam dies:

Apr 26 18:05:57 paz postfix/lmtp[66441]: B30633BFE9: to=<cb...@li...>,
relay=paz[/var/run/dspam.sock], delay=33235, delays=33234/0.08/0.42/0,
dsn=4.4.2, status=deferred (lost connection with paz[/var/run/dspam.sock]
while performing the LHLO handshake)

Apr 26 18:05:57 paz postfix/lmtp[66438]: CE71C3BEB8: to=<cb...@li...>,
relay=paz[/var/run/dspam.sock], delay=29671, delays=29671/0.06/0/0.54,
dsn=4.4.2, status=deferred (lost connection with paz[/var/run/dspam.sock]
while sending end of data -- message may be sent more than once)

At the moment this is the only thing I have to gone on; dspam.debug isn't
telling me anything useful.

This is the bit that is puzzling me. I am a very part-time sysadmin, but
I've gotten a fair bit of experience over the past five years setting up
web- and mailservers, mostly under FreeBSD. When I run into problems
configuring apache, postfix, or dovecot, or a CMS like Joomla, I can nearly
always find a log somewhere which tells me what is going wrong. dspam is
another matter though. If it lacks write permissions or encounters so other
kind of problem it just silently crashes. I am still running it with the
hash driver as I was never able to get the mysql interface working. postfix
and dovecot seem so much more verbose. dspam for me is a black box.

I feel like I am missing piece of the puzzle here. But what?
