Package: spamassassin Version: 3.0.2-1 When running spamassassin with the following options (in /etc/default/spamasssassin)
OPTIONS="-d -x -u qmailq --socketpath=/var/run/spamd -m10 -s null" then I cannot use the Debian init script to stop spamd as it reports that spamd is not running although it is already up (it should be noted that running spamd as the user qmailq has no effect on this bug, you can run it as any user and the behaviour will be the same). The following example shows the problem: > /etc/init.d/spamassassin start Starting SpamAssassin Mail Filter Daemon: spamd. > pidof spamd 7701 7700 7699 7698 7697 7696 7695 7694 7693 7692 7691 > /etc/init.d/spamassassin stop Stopping SpamAssassin Mail Filter Daemon: No spamd found running; none killed. spamd. > pidof spamd 7701 7700 7699 7698 7697 7696 7695 7694 7693 7692 7691 I have noticed this bug in spamasssissin in Sarge and Sid. It is not immediately clear to me how to solve this bug, but one idea would be to use pidof in the init script to check if the program is really running. Regards.
